Abstract

The design and validation of forthcoming mobile communication technologies (Beyond 3G and 4G) require appropriate tools for building reference models. In this article, a new tool called WM-SIM (Wireless Mobile SIMulator) is presented and compared with others recognized tools as Simulink, Visual System Simulator (VSS) and Ptolemy II. Benchmark results have proved WM-SIM to be more efficient than aforementioned tools in terms of processing time. Finally, results obtained with a model of the coming cellular Long Term Evolution (LTE) technology are presented in order to prove our platform as a good option to evaluate this kind of systems.
