3.1.2 DL GPRS Payload (Transmitted & Retransmitted)

Description
DL GPRS Payload
Definition
DL GPRS Payload can be calculated by summing up all the DL blocks (transmitted as well
as retransmitted) of each coding scheme and multiplying by the user data in a block for
each coding scheme .The total DL GPRS Payload is then calculated by summing up the
DL Payload for all GPRS coding schemes.
