Teletraffic Performance of GSM900/DCS1800 in Street Microcells: Radio planners often refer to the buildings in cities as “urban clutter,” a nuisance they must accommodate. A more appropriate attitude for personal communication systems is to utilize the electromagnetic shielding offered by buildings to form microcells
