Capacity analysis for large-scale packet-switched wireless networks based on expected value of delay

摘要

This paper describes a capacity analysis and planning tool developed for large-scale packet-switched wireless on the move (OTM) tactical networks. The tool uses a novel technique to analyze and evaluate the different phases of the network topology in a rapid and robust matter. Analysis of the network topology identifies links where congestion is likely to occur and links that are underutilized. Well-optimized links can also be identified. Based on these analyses, statistics can be collected to reflect the utilization state of a planned topology and traffic scenario at different phases of its deployment.
