Abstract :
The Mobile Traffic Simulator (MTS) is a simulation tool for wireless communications, specifically for the cellular communication. This tool was developed with the aim of analyzing the capacity of base stations in cellular networks for a proper capacity and coverage planning, using the Google Maps. The MTS was developed in a modern programming language for rendering in browsers, JavaScript. It used a multi-agent model considering actual data, and it is very important because allows to simulate real conditions.
