As the solar cycle 24 progresses, the solar activity rises up with many intense CME events directed toward the Earth.  Determining the characteristics of the CMEs, like the speed, width angle, latitude, and especially longitude has been a great challenge for predicting their effects accurately on the near Earth environment and spacecraft and ground systems.  As a result of a halo CME occurred on October 22, 2011, the electron and proton fluxes at the geostationary orbit increased, strong aurorae were seen as low latitudes as 30^o, magnetopause moved to half of its nominal positon, and the magnetospheric activity index Kp was 7 indicating a moderate geomagnetic storm in the magnetotail.  In this study, we determined the kinematic and geometrical properties of this CME using several methods available in the literature and used them as inputs in the ENLIL cone model of NASA CCMC to simulate the event.  We compared the predicted parameters with the data from ACE spacecraft at L1.  We run the global MHD model, SWMF/BATSRUS, to study the near Earth magnetospheric effects resulting from the CME interaction.  We further investigate the effects on the spacecraft operations as the magnetosphere responds to the CME using CREME and SPENVIS tools.  In this presentation, we will discuss our simulation results and make comparisons with those in the literature and with data from geostationary and magnetospheric spacecraft.
