ABSTRACT The present work arises from the need to foresee the necessary changes that a portion of LTE backhaul network requires as the demand for data consumption evolves and the users connected to the network increase. With the increase in the flow of data on the network, particularly video streaming traffic, mobile network operators require load testing and a prospective analysis to evaluate network performance.To improve the performance of the network in the face of the increase in mobile users, we propose to model a portion of the LTE backhaul network of a rural area, in OMNET ++. The network model is based on technical characteristics of functional architecture that, through a server external to the LTE backhaul network, transfers streaming video packets with a length of 1000 bytes to 31 user equipment. From the first scenario, three test scenarios are proposed with the same network elements of the main structure but with a different number of users. Each test scenario is subjected to a certain number of simulations. The results of the simulations allowed to validate the approximate behavior of the network performance and allowed to present a solution to the degradation.
