This paper describes an OPNET model of a General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) network. The model captures the signaling and transmission behavior of the GPRS network. The paper first introduces a GPRS network and describes the signaling and transmission procedures that will be modeled. In order to point out the simplifications made in the OPNET model, the paper then address the differences between the GPRS OPNET model and the standard. The paper also describes the implementation of each model component: node model, packet format, process model, and state variables corresponding to each component.
