Our vast experience and immense expertise makes us world renowned institute with more than 50+ branches worldwide.
We also have accomplished nearly 500+ 5G NS3 projects with a focus on innovation and creativity in project ideas. 5G Network has come into lime light in the recent years with wide research scope and issues. We also offer a wonderful platform to innovate something new in the field of 5G networking under our expert’s guidance. Approach us with your project needs and ideas to get our all round guidance and support.
Now, let’s see the overall procedure used for the simulation of 5G Networks in NS3.
NS3 SIMULATOR
- NS-3 Network simulator is an open source simulator also used for the simulation of IP and Non-IP based Networks
- NS3 is implemented using C++ and Python [scripting language]. C++ is used as a core language while python is also used as a glue language/ binding language.
- To perform 5G Network simulation in NS3, mmwave Module is also used.
- NS3 mmwave Model is also a software library which allows the simulation of mmwave-5G Networks[optionally including EPC(Evolved packet core)]
MMWAVE MODULE IN NS3 [FOR 5G NETWORK SIMULATION]:
MMWAVE Module Description:
- -Used to provide the basic implementation of millimeter wave user and also infrastructure devices[including propagation models, MAC and physical Model]
- -Key design Features:
- Provides implementation of mm-wave infrastructure devices and also user devices
- Supports time division duplexing[TDD]
- Customizable OFDM based frame structure also for control and data channels
- Supports Uplink and downlink MAC scheduling
- Customizable MIMO antenna system with beam forming at infrastructure and also user device
- Developed in C++ completely
To interface mmWave Module in NS3:
- Copy mmWave in the LTE folder and also paste into ns3/src folder
- Open the terminal->go to ns-allinone-3.2x/ns-3.2x
- Next, type the command[sudo ./waf configure]
- To build the module, type the command “sudo ./waf build”
Simulation Steps:
- Define the simulation scenario
- Write a Simulation program also to recreate the desired simulation scenario[topology/architecture].This can also be done by accessing NS-3 mmwave Model library using “ns3::mmwave helper” API[Defined in “src/mmwave/helper/mmwave-helper.h”]
- Using “ns3:: Configstore”, specify the configuration parameters of the objects being also used for the simulation
- Configure the desired output and also run the simulation
- Parameters used to analyze the simulation performance:
- -SINR also for user with NLOS link
- -SINR also for user with LoS Link
- -Average SINR estimated also by users
- -Data rate also for Users with LoS and NLoS links
Overall Simulation:

Initial Module included:
# include “ns3 / core-module.h”
# include “ns3 / network-module.h”
# include “ns3 / mobility-module.h”
# include “ns3 / config-store.h”
# include “ns3 / mmwave-helper.h”
# include <ns3 / buildings-helper.h>
# include “ns3 / global-route-manager.h”
# include “ns3 / ipv4-global-routing-helper.h”
# include “ns3 / internet-module.h”
# include “ns3 / applications-module.h”
# include “ns3/log.h”>
using namespace ns3;
int main (int argc, char *argv[]){
// the rest of the simulation program
- To create “Mmwavehelper” object[used to provide methods to add eNBs and UEs and instantiate common objects]
Ptr < MmWaveHelper > ptr_mmWave = CreateObject < MmWaveHelper > ();
-
To create “Node” objects for UEs and eNBs:
NodeContainer enbNodes;
NodeContainer ueNodes;
enbNodes . Create ( 1 );
ueNodes . Create ( 1 );
-
To configure the Mobility Model for all nodes:
MobilityHelper enbmobility ;
Enbmobility . SetMobilityModel (” ns3:: ConstantPositionMobilityModel” );
enbmobility . SetPositionAllocator( enbPositionAlloc );
enbmobility . Install ( enbNodes );
BuildingsHelper :: Install ( enbNodes );
-
To install an LTE protocol stack on eNBs:
NetDeviceContainer enbNetDev = ptr _ mmWave – > InstallEnbDevice ( enbNodes );
-
To Install LTE protocol stack on UEs
NetDeviceContainer ueNetDev = ptr _ mmWave – > InstallUeDevice ( ueNodes );
-
To create an RRC connection between UEs and eNB:
Ptr _ mmWave – > AttachToClosestEnb ( ueNetDev, enbNetDev );
ptr _ mmWave – > EnableTraces ( ) ;
-
Activate Data radio bearer between UE and eNB:
enum EpsBearer::Qci q = EpsBearer::GBR _ CONV _ VOICE;
EpsBearer bearer ( q );
Ptr _ mmWave – >ActivateDataRadioBearer ( ueNetDev, bearer );
-
To Set the simulation stop time and run the simulation
Simulator : : Stop (Seconds (2));//Stop time
Simulator : : Run ();//Run the simulation
Simulator::Destroy ();//To clean up and exit
return 0 }
