Rakhmangulov A.N., Mirsagdiev O.A. A simulation model of quality assessment of voice transmission in operational and technological networks in railway transport

Abstract

This article describes a composition and structure of a simulation model of voice transmission in operational and technological networks in railway transport. The simulation model was built using a system dynamics approach to simulation modeling and implemented with simulation programming software AnyLogic. The basis of the developed simulation model is “E- model” of the voice transmission quality calculation (“R-factor”), modified for the conditions specific to operational and technological communication networks in railway transport. The proposed simulation model allows for a rapid assessment and prediction of the speech quality in networks of different types, configurations, structures, as well as in case of changes in external conditions.
