Abstract

To evaluate the application-level performance in wireless networks, we build a wireless performance simulator which include a application traffic characteristic, network architecture, network element details and protocol features. We also develop the simulation modelling methodology using Lindley's recursion method to reduce the number of simulation events. Using the simulator, we assess the user-perceived application-level performance of the voice and web browsing service in the cdma2000 network for the wireless technology migration from 2.5G to 3G+. The main conclusion of this paper is that end-to-end application-level performance is affected by various elements and layers of the network. Thus, it must be considered in all phases of the development process.
