How can I deploy UMTS networks using Wireless Deployment Wizard (not Cell Creator)?

Solution

Follow these steps to quickly partially deploy a simple 7 cell UMTS network.a. Select Topology > Deploy Wireless Network... This launches the Wireless Network Deployment Wizard.b. Click Continue to start the wizard.c. The option Use wizard to provide network specifications is selected. Click Next.d. Choose the option Create network in new subnet and click Next.e. Choose technology to be Other.f. Click Next.g. Choose Cell (Hexagon) as the Geographical Overlay and click Next.h. Click on the drop-down menu for the Gateway Node Model and choose Edit... Then, in the object palette, choose the umts_node_b_adv node model and click OK.i. Similarly for the Mobile Node Model, choose umts_wkstn_adv. Set the number of mobiles to 5 and click Next.j. In the Node Mobility window, delete the rows to disable random mobility.Click Next and then Finish.This will deploy only the UEs and the NodeBs. The rest needs to be manually done. However, the Wireless Deployment Wizard is easier to use and accomplishes more than the Cell Creator utility. For more information, see Modules > Wireless > Modeling Wireless Networks > Wireless Network Deployment in the documentation.
