This work describes a simulation tool, which was developed to analyze the radio resources and QoS (Quality of Service) parameters in mobile systems. Because of the complex characteristics of an actual cellular network, it is extremely difficult having the outputs of the simulator being derived from a real set of functions, due to the large amount of parameters that have to be considered such as the mobility behavior, the traffic conditions, the geographic and morphologic characteristics of the region, the complex modeling of mobile radio propagation channel, and so on. In order to develop a simulation tool as near as possible to the reality, models that are satisfactorily adequate to the real case have been considered. So, propagation, mobility and traffic models were adapted from the IS-136 American system. The contribution of this work is to offer a flexible simulation tool that allows the user, in addition to analyzing the capacity of the system, to evaluate new algorithms of power control, handoff strategies, channel allocation schemes and propagation models. The tool will be validated following the process of a real project of cellular telephony and at the end, it will be applied to a cellular system with overlapped macro- cells/micro-cells, and some handoff strategies dedicated to those systems will be analyzed.
