Wireless Network Simulation - Your Window on Future Network Performance
Overview Simulation is a standard method in the toolkit of modern engineers; before a piece of equipment, a car or a telecom network is build, it is tested in a computer model that reflects both the object that is tested as well as its surroundings. The paper describes three relevant perspectives on current wireless simulation practices. In order to obtain the key challenges for future network simulations, the characteristics of "Beyond 3G" networks are described, including their impact on simulation. After an elaboration on the current practices around simulation in the design of radio systems and networks, the paper concentrates on the characteristics of the "Beyond 3G" scenario, and the challenges it poses to radio network simulators.
