Simulation of digital transmission in cellular mobile radio environment

A simulation package has been developed for predicting the response of a cellular mobile radio channel to the transmission of narrow pulses. Four types of urban areas ranging from dense urban to suburban and three RF frequencies in the 0.5 to 3 GHz range are considered. These areas are geometrically modeled by a cellular pattern of hexagons making the model compatible with existing digital cellular mobile communication plans. The simulation model is wideband in nature, but it can also be used to predict the performance of narrowband systems.<>
