Transaction level modeling of an adaptive multi-standard and multi-application radio communication system

Design of radio communication systems delivering wide variety of applications with the best end-user experience through the overall wireless networks implies to develop innovative services to encompass adaptation capability requirements. The creation of efficient executable models becomes a mandatory step to enable system architecting of such system under timing and power constraints. In this paper we propose a method based on the creation of an executable model at transaction level of an adaptive multi-standard and multi-application radio communication system. A specific modeling technique is proposed to represent the behavior of the system environment for different use cases. A generic model of the system is also proposed to describe several dynamic services and the reconfiguration management functionality. Simulation results provided by the model enable to study impact of reconfiguration mechanisms.
