Modeling and performance analysis of public safety wireless networks

Public safety wireless networks (PSWNs) play a vital role in the operation of emergency agencies. In this paper, we describe analysis and modeling of traffic data collected from E-Comm, the public safety wireless network deployed in Southwestern British Columbia. We also introduce a newly developed wide area radio network simulator, named WarnSim. The simulator is used to validate traffic models and to evaluate and predict the performance of the E-Comm network.
