History telecom network
• 1982: CEPT create the Groupe Special Mobile to develop 2G standard (GSM)
• 1987: memorandum of understanding 13 countries to develop cellular system
• 1991: first commercial launch
• 1993: over million subscribers in 48 countries operated by 70 carriers
• 2009: 80% mobile market uses GSM in more than 212 countries used over 3 billion people!
• Recent market surveys show cellular phone penetration reaches 100% in many countries

• Communication counts– Erlang
– SMS
– New calls, Duration of calls, Originating calls, Sum of call length, Average call length

Handovers
• Handover (or handoff) is the switching of an on-going call to a
different channel or cell. It is the mechanism of managing a
permanent connection when the phone moves through two
cells of the network
• Together with the Mobile Switching Centers (MSC) they
provide the call routing and roaming capabilities of GSM.

Cell dwell time
• Cell Dwell Time is the duration that a
cellular phone remains associated to a
base station between handover events
• In the literature this count is used on an
individual cell basis and from multiple
adjacent cells to estimate traffic
congestion.

Call volume parameters
• Erlang
– Erlang is one person hour of phone use.
Erlang data is aggregated and anonymous
data in terms of usage time and depends on
the number of communications and their
duration

calls, Sum of call length, Average call

Historical review (I)
Table: year, project name, promoters, location, cell
phone data, traffic estimation, results
• 15 years of research and field tests
• First start CAPITAL project in 1994
• Speed and time are most studied estimations
• Projects are often initiated by Technology providers,
Telco’s and Transport agencies
• Validation studies mostly carried out by Universities
![Page 12: Mobile Telephone Data and Traffic Management · Demand & Supply Transportation. currentcity.org Issues regarding telecom data •Legal aspects and privacy –Directive 2002/22/EC](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060523/605370cf8e31b4664200dc79/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Historical review (II)
• Adoption is still limited, field is largely dominated by R&D
• Technology is promising but not yet developed for large scale utilization
• Accuracy early generated systems was not sufficient to produce useful traffic information
• Recent studies show better results however..
• Transport agencies historically failed to define suitable performance requirements
• This causes problems for validation to draw clear conclusions

Current City AmsterdamGrowing interest in urban dynamics
How many people are in that area?
Where are traffic jams?
Where are incidents or major events?
What percentage of people have left the area?
What is the current demand and supply of public transportation?
How much CO2 was emitted today?
Is there a relation between energy consumption and the presence of people
What’s the hottest spot in town now?

People create the dynamics of the city
A telecom network is a natural candidate to sense this
dynamics
It addresses the collective behavior of the city, rather
than the physical parameters of the city
It provides a new layer of information for essential
services, in the public and private sector
… and also opens technical and ethical challenges
