In this position paper, CTTC and University of Washington provide a status update regarding new protocol stacks for end-to-end and multi-RAT scenario simulations in the open source network simulator ns-3 (www.nsnam.org). Specifically, the recent advances enable network performance evaluation research in the emergent areas of 5G NR-U and IEEE802.11ax coexistence in unlicensed band. The work...
In this position paper, we focus on the NITOS testbed and the experimentally driven 5G activities around the established experimentation ecosystem it provides. NITOS is a highly heterogeneous testbed located in the premises of University of Thessaly, Greece. The testbed provides remote access to experimenters from around the globe, allowing repeatable experimentation with cutting edge...
