The aim of this paper is to assess GPRS data throughput of GSM networks for single and multiple antenna interference cancellation (SAIC/MAIC) receivers in the terminals. This is done by using a two-step top-down simulation methodology. Both synchronous and asynchronous networks with traditional European reuses of 1/3 and 3/9 are considered. It turns out that SAIC/MAIC receivers are very beneficial also for European network planning. The results indicate a substantial gain in data throughput in the order of 20-35% for SAIC compared to terminals with a conventional receiver. A further dramatic increase in throughput up to 120% can be achieved by terminals using an MAIC receiver. In spite of the widespread view that a maximum gain will be achieved for a synchronized network, where the amount of overlap between desired signal and interference can be controlled, our results show that the performance of both network types is very similar.
