This book explains how the performance of modern cellular
wireless networks can be evaluated by measurements and
simulations
With the roll-out of LTE, high data throughput is promised to be
available to cellular users. In case you have ever wondered how
high this throughput really is, this book is the right read for
you: At first, it presents results from experimental research and
simulations of the physical layer of HSDPA, Wi MAX, and LTE. Next,
it explains in detail how measurements on such systems need to be
performed in order to achieve reproducible and repeatable results.
The book further addresses how wireless links can be evaluated by
means of standard-compliant link-level simulation. The major
challenge in this context is their complexity when investigating
complete wireless cellular networks. Consequently, it is shown how
system-level simulators with a higher abstraction level can be
designed such that their results still match link-level
simulations. Exemplarily, the book finally presents optimizations
of wireless systems over several cells.
This book:
* Explains how the performance of modern cellular wireless
networks can be evaluated by measurements and simulations
* Discusses the concept of testbeds, highlighting the challenges
and expectations when building them
* Explains measurement techniques, including the evaluation of
the measurement quality by statistical inference techniques
* Presents throughput results for HSDPA, Wi MAX, and
LTE
* Demonstrates simulators at both, link- level and
system-level
* Provides system-level and link-level simulators (for Wi MAX and
LTE) on an accompanying website (href=’https://www.nt.tuwien.ac.at/downloads/featured-downloads’>https://www.nt.tuwien.ac.at/downloads/featured-downloads)
This book is an insightful guide for researchers and engineers
working in the field of mobile radio communication as well as
network planning. Advanced students studying related courses will
also find the book interesting.
