De. Duffy et al., STATISTICAL-ANALYSIS OF CCSN SS7 TRAFFIC DATA FROM WORKING CCS SUBNETWORKS/, IEEE journal on selected areas in communications, 12(3), 1994, pp. 544-551
In this paper, we report on an ongoing statistical analysis of actual
CCSN traffic data. The data consist of approximately 170 million signa
ling messages collected from a variety of different working CCS subnet
works. The key findings from our analysis concern: 1) the characterist
ics of both the telephone call arrival process and the signaling messa
ge arrival process; 2) the tail behavior of the call holding time dist
ribution; and 3) the observed performance of the CCSN with respect to
a variety of performance and reliability measurements.
