Consideration of time-domain activity of transmissions in SEAMCAT simulation for Generic and Cellular systems
When using SEAMCAT for simulation of networks in compatibility and sharing studies, sometimes users face questions about how to simulate transmitters which are not active all the time. This corresponds to the terms/parameters Duty cycle, Activity factor, Activity ratio, Probability of transmission, BS/UE TDD ratio and similar terms, depending on type of equipment used, or a combination of these.

Different methods to consider transmitters which are not active all the time in interference calculations:
Tx power distribution
Additional Loss distribution
Setting Uniform (and Closest interferer) mode of simulation together with Transmitter density and Traffic
Adjusting Tx power to average power
Conditional probability formula & law of total probability
Separate activity vector combined with extracted results vectors
Reduce the number of active Tx to simulate
