Abstract

This paper presents a new system level simulator that has been developed to evaluate Radio Resource Management (RRM) techniques in UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication Systems) andenhanced-UMTS networks. The simulator includes new implementations for the User Equipment, Node B, Radio Network Controller nodes and can evaluate parameters associated with UMTS or enhanced-UMTS performance, related to the introduction of RRM functions. The RRM functions implemented deal with admission control, packet scheduling, handover control, load control, and power control. The evaluation of RRM mechanisms is supported by the provision of appropriate radio propagation, traffic generation, and mobility models.
