Database model for traffic routing and planning parameters in commercial Microwave networks

End to end traffic routing and planning on Microwave in commercial networks and its proper record keeping is a problem. In commercial Mobile phone networks thousands of cell sites are connected with respective Base Station Controllers (BSC) and Mobile Switching Controller (MSC) through Microwave. End to end connectivity has to be tracked for trouble shooting and MW link capacity planning for future use. Different microwave links are involved to complete a connectivity hence traffic is to be tracked on all the links used in connectivity. Tracking traffic on thousands of MW links a tedious tasks, In order to enhance the productivity of Microwave planning in commercial networks, record keeping is inevitable, trends of traffic growth and future predicts can only be possible when proper data is available. Paper discusses database architecture to ensure proper tracking of the microwave data through central database and work order system. Proposed model if implemented can increase the utilization of Microwave media.
