Popis: Mobile terminal position location, tracking and prediction are becoming important areas of research for advanced cellular communications. Methods for mobile terminal location are evaluated using simulations. To obtain accurate simulation results, the simulation environment and terminal motion model must be as realistic as possible. This paper describes a simulation system for mobile terminals located within vehicles in dense urban environments. These are the mobiles with the greatest need for location predictions in the environments of greatest interest to network providers. The radio propagation model is based on well known multipath radio propagation models. The motion model combines an accurate kinematic model for vehicular motion with a driver decision model to mimic human driving decisions. Simulated mobile terminal motion tracks are presented, showing how realistic motions are generated.
