Abstract

This paper proposes a novel simulator which is capable of loading different modules enabling to update the simulator easily when the 4G mobile communication technologies are revised. This simulator is not only designed based on IMT-Advanced channel model but also confirmed its reliability through mutual verification with Matlab based simulator developed by Winner+. The proposed simulator was evaluated on the basis of evaluation requirements on the IMT-Advanced. By comparing with experimental results for IEEE and 3GPP, it was also proved for the simulator to have a better performance.

본 논문은 ITU가 추진 중인 4세대 이동통신 표준(IMT-Advanced) 이 향후 개정될 때에도 변경된 사항을 용이하게 반영 가능한 시뮬레이션 아키텍처를 새롭게 제시하고 이를 바탕으로 시뮬레이터를 구현하였다. 그리고 Winner+가 개발한 Matlab기반 시뮬레이터와 비교하여 신뢰성을 검증하였다. 아울러 4세대 이동통신 표준 평가 항목에 대해 모의실험을 통하여 결과 값을 얻고 이를 IEEE와 3GPP가 자체 실시한 평가결과 값과 비교하여 본 시뮬레이터의 우수성을 입증하였다.
