Item Open Access GSM and UMTS mobility simulator(2005) Öner, MehmetIn this thesis, a mobility simulator for GSM and UMTS has been designed and implemented using Visual C#.Net. The objective has been to design and implement such a simulator that can be used to create and study different traffic load scenarios and mobility patterns that can cause congestion situations. The modular approach adopted for the GSM and UMTS simulator allow us to evaluate the performance of new services. The simulator uses propagation simulation results and terrain profile data to produce capacity and performance metrics related to GSM and UMTS networks. The capacity and the service quality of the network are assessed in a long-term system level simulation scheme. Mobility generation is the core of the simulator program. It generates random paths for the mobile users in the simulation. Then the effects of the mobility patterns of the users on the system capacity are investigated. In GSM mobility simulator, mobility, traffic generation, call-admission and handover are implemented. In UMTS, in addition to GSM modules, power control and soft handover generation is implemented.Item Open Access A performance evaluation framework of a rate-controlled MPEG video transmission over UMTS networks(IEEE, 2007-07) Akar, Nail; Barbera, M.; Budzisz, L.; Ferrùs, R.; Kankaya, Emre; Schembra, G.UMTS is designed to offer high bandwidth radio access with QoS assurances for multimedia communications. In particular, real-time video communications services are expected to become a successful experience under UMTS networks. In this context, a video transmission service can be designed over the basis that UMTS can provide either a constant bit rate data channel or a dynamic variable bit rate data channel adapted to load conditions. In this latter approach, which is more efficient for both the user and the service provider, multimedia sources have to be timely designed in order to adapt their output rate to the instantaneous allowed channel rate. The target of this paper is to define an analytical model of adaptive real-time video sources in a UMTS network where system resources are dynamically shared among active users. © 2007 IEEE.
