how can this have "cell size of 30 km" and cover 100% of Finland with 140 base stations!!??!! Mozzerati 08:32, 6 February 2005 (UTC)Reply

Easily. 3,14*(30^2) ~= 2827 km^2 covered by each base station (give or take a little) * 140 of them is almost 400,000 km^2. Minus some thousands for cell overlap / geographical problems etc. Finland's area is 340,000 km^2, so it matches (ARP, being a fairly low frequency (compared to GSM) technology, doesn't mind line-of-sight obstructions as much as newer technologies). Although that would mean that the range is 30 km and cell size is 60 km? Anyway, it's not impossible.  Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.233.16.105 (talk) 23:30, 8 February 2005 (UTC)Reply
