What would the same users do in a different network? The performance of the network has a significant effect on the traffic profiles of users, which cannot be easily identified from network traces. This work combines a number of studies to compile a new responsive traffic model for mobile networks that realistically mimics user behaviour. Users continuously evaluate the performance of the network, and initiate or terminate their sessions accordingly. The presented model utilises Markov chains to capture this behaviour, while the performance of a session is depicted with the binary distinction of good and bad quality. We analyse and showcase the implications of this model, and discuss its benefits on network planning and research applications.
