This paper is a contribution to the generic problem of having simple and accurate models to dimension radio cells with data traffic on a GPRS or EDGE network. It addresses the issue of capacity limitation in a given cell due to coupling with other cells because of a central equipment or transmission link of limited capacity. A mobile can't access the cell although it is alone, because the capacity limit is reached due to traffic on other cells.
