Abstract
Research and development of mobile communications systems require a detailed analysis and evaluation of novel technologies to further enhance spectral efficiency, connectivity and reliability. Due to the exponentially increasing demand of mobile broadband data rates and challenging requirements for latency and reliability, mobile communications specifications become increasingly complex to support ever more sophisticated techniques. For this reason, analytic analysis as well as measurement based investigations of link level methods soon encounter feasibility limitations. Therefore, computer aided numeric simulation is an important tool for investigation of wireless communications standards and is indispensable for analysis and developing future technologies. In this contribution, we introduce the Vienna 5G Link Level Simulator, a Matlab-based link level simulation tool to facilitate…
