We will overload this LTE network and offload it through data offloading techniques such as small cells and WiFi offload. For this research, discreteevent open software network simulator ns3 will be implemented. Ns3 is a network simulator based on the programming language C++, and has all the necessary libraries to simulate an LTE and WiFi network. %B Open Source Software: Mobile Open Source Technologies %S IFIP Advances in Information and Communication Technology %I Springer Berlin Heidelberg %V 427 %P 111-112 %@ 978-3-642-55127-7 %U http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-55128-4_15 %R 10.1007/978-3-642-55128-4_15
