In this paper; we describe an advanced simulation environment which is used to examine, validate, andpredict the performance of mobile wireless network systems.This simulation environment overcomes many of the limitations found with analytical models, experimentation, and other commercial network simulators available on the market today We identify a set of components which make up mobile wireless systems and describe a set offlexible modules which can be used to model the various components and their integration.These models are developed using the Maisie simulation language.By modeling the various components and their integration, this simulation environment is able to accurately predict the performance bottlenecks of a multimedia wireless network system being developed at UCLA, determine the trade-offpoint between the various bottlenecks, andprovide performance measurements and validation of algorithms which are not possible through experimentation and too complexfor analysis.
