Abstract
System level simulations have been proven to be a very important means when the behavior of many users need to be taken into account. Typical numbers can be 20, 100 or even 1000. In the following we demonstrate the feasibility of such studies on the example of communications in trains and in cars. In train communications we typically have a single train connected to a base-station but the train, e.g., German Inter-City Express (ICE), may carry 500 users at once. Similarly, along motorways there may be 500 cars with one user each in the neighborhood of a base-station.
