Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyze and simulate different kinds of the real time application and non-real time application such as Electronic Mail , web browsing, File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and different voice codec. In addition to that the paper also, shows how these applications will generate the signalling protocol messages such as Radio Resource Control (RRC), Node b Application Part (NBAP) and Radio Access Network Application Part (RANAP) during handover in Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) using OPNET Modeler 14.5. After execution of the simulation the result shows that the File Transfer Protocol generate a large amount of signalling messages than Electronic mail and Web browsing and for voice codec the codec G.723 generate large amount of signalling messages than another codec.
