Busy Hour Call Attempts (BHCA) represents the total number of call attempts made within the busiest one-hour period of a telecommunications system's operation. This metric measures the peak traffic load a network or switch experiences, indicating its capacity requirements. Network engineers use BHCA to design and dimension telecommunication infrastructure to handle peak demand without service degradation.
