Abstract :
The introduction of 3rd generation cellular networks and their various bit rate services require new techniques in the field of radio network planning and dimensioning. This paper describes a simulation tool on the system level in order to support the planning process by analyzing the performance of a given network constellation. Finally, an example scenario for a coverage and capacity analysis is presented and simulation results gained with the system simulator are discussed
