The sampling period is 1s. At the end of each granularity period, the average number of busy SDCCHs for carrying traffic is collected. Note: In normal cases, one-day traffic volume is the total of twenty-four 60-minute traffic volume and is not 24-hour traffic volume measured on the M2000. According to the traffic measurement on the M2000, 24-hour traffic volume is the same as 60minute traffic volume in the case of uniform traffic volume. 7.
