Application-level performance is a key to the adoption and success of the CDMA 2000. To predict this performance in advance,
a detailed end-to-end simulation model of a CDMA network is built to include application traffic characteristics, network
architecture, network element details using the proposed simulation methodology. We assess the user-perceived application
performance when a RAN and a CN adopt different transport architectures such as ATM and IP. To evaluate the user-perceived
quality of voice service, we compare the end-to-end packet delay for different vocoder schemes such as G.711, G.726 (PCM),
G.726 (ADPCM), and vocoder bypass scheme. By the simulation results, the vocoder bypass scenario shows 30% performance improvement
over the others. We also compare the quality of voice service with and without DPS scheduling scheme. We know that DPS scheme
keep the voice delay bound even if the service traffic is high. For data packet performance, HTTP v.1.1 shows better performance
than that of HTTP v.1.0 due to the pipelining and TCP persistent connection. We may conclude that IP transport technology
is better solution for higher FER environment since the packet overhead of IP is smaller than that of ATM for web browsing
data traffic, while it shows opposite effect to the small size voice packet in RAN architecture. We show that the 3G-1X EV-DO
system gives much better packet delay performance than 3G-1X RTT. The main conclusion is that end-to-end application-level
performance is affected by various elements and layers of the network and thus it must be considered in all phases of the
development process.
