Designing of Internetworking Simulator to Enhance GSM/WCDMA Internetworking

Mobile networks planning and optimization has been an important area of research for the network operators. The existing mobile networks technologies namely Global System for Mobile (GSM) and General Packet Radio Systems (GPRS) have the same Radio Access technology. Universal Mobile Telecommunications Systems (UMTS) based on Wideband Code Division Multiple Access introduced a new Radio Access Technology. These technologies terminate at the same core network but they have different Radio Access Systems. Integrating and internetworking these systems is the main aim of this paper.
