Patent ID: 8894413

Claim:
An adaptive vehicular movement simulator comprising: a computer comprising: a user interface for receiving at least one input parameter related to simulation topology and at least two input parameters related to simulation vehicles, one of the at least two input parameters being a linear vehicular density; a simulation initialization module for creating the simulation topology having a simulation area using the at least one input parameter related to the simulation topology; a vehicle movement simulation module for placing a plurality of simulation vehicles with the simulation area at an initial placement based upon the at least two input parameters related to simulation vehicles and the created simulation topology and simulating movement of the plurality of simulation vehicles starting with the initial placement using a plurality of movement models, each of the plurality of simulation vehicles has mobility characteristics determined by plurality of movement models, when the simulated movement moves a vehicle outside the simulation area, the vehicle re-emerges at a location within the simulation area; and a converter for converting the simulated movement into an application specific format for a mobile wireless network simulating program selected from a plurality of predetermined application specific formats, the application specific formats are stored in a storage device.
