Abstract: Dedicated detector simulations are very important for the success of high energy physics experiments. They not only bring benefits to the optimization of the detectors, but can also improve the precision of the physics results. To design a Multi-gap Resistive Plate Chamber (MRPC) with a very good time resolution, a detailed monte-carlo simulation of the detector is needed and described in this paper. The simulation can produce detector signal waveforms which contain a complete information about the events. The detector performance filled with different gas mixtures is studied, and comparisons between simulation and experimental results show a good agreement.
