This paper proposes efficient analytical models to dimension the required transport bandwidths for the Long Term Evolution (LTE) access network for the elastic Internet traffic (which is carried by the TCP protocol). The dimensioning models are based on the use of Processor Sharing queuing theory to guarantee a desired end-to-end application QoS target. For validating the analytical dimensioning models, a developed LTE system simulation model is used. Extensive simulations are performed with various traffic and network scenarios. The analytical results derived from the proposed dimensioning models are compared against the simulation results. The presented results demonstrate that the proposed analytical models can appropriately estimate the application performances of different QoS priorities and thus be used for the link dimensioning for various traffic and network scenarios.
