Abstract

We propose a generator that represents traffic transmitted in mobile wireless networks. It is based on measurements of IP flows in a real, large-scale LTE network. The proposed tool generates TCP flow sizes and durations. We verify the generator by comparison with the traces available in the literature, and we propose application in discrete event simulators.
