The LTE-Advanced MAC-protocol with carrier aggregation support probability-time characteristics simulation
Abstract
In this paper, the simulation model and numerical results of simulation of the probability-time characteristics of LTE-Advanced wireless medium access control protocol with carrier aggregation support are described. The characteristics of packet delay time and buffer loss probability depending on input load intensity are demonstrated. The results of the investigation can be used by 4th generation mobile vendors for network quality indicators analysis and optimization.
