چکیده
This work is supported by the National Capital Institute of Telecommunication (NCIT), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada AbstractRadio resource management (RRM) plays a vital role in the Quality of Service (QoS) provisioning in wireless networks in general and in Broadband wireless access (BWA) in particular. A great deal of attention has been given to RRM schemes in mobile communication networks. However, BWA is inherently different in many aspects including the offered services, traffic models, QoS requirements, propagation characteristics, and network structure. In order to design, implement and/or explore the performance of radio resource management algorithms, a system level simulation tool has been designed as a testbed for RRM schemes in BWA. A MATLAB toolbox (RUNE) has been employed after we have modified many of its functions and introduced several new features. The simulation tool is so flexible and effective that new RRM schemes can be easily included, tested and analyzed.
