What is the best simulation for 5G Wireless Networks?

From Manish Nair point of view the best simulation for 5G Wireless Networks for PHY Layer is Matlab and Simulink.

Matlab 2017 under academic license from MathWorks has the latest and greatest 5G toolbox, and is a great resource.

MAC-PHY Split and Protocol Stack

Open Air Interface (OAI) software libraries.[1]

The MAC-PHY split is implemented as an amendment to OAI5G source code. The OAI source code itself is split into two projects: OAI Radio Access Network (OAI-RAN) and OAI Core Network (OAI-CN).

OAI-RAN code is available on GitLab, and is distributed under OAI 5G public license.[2]

OAI-CN project implements 4G LTE Evolved Packet Core (EPC) and 5G Core Network. The code repository is on GitHub, and licensed by Apache.[3] [4]

Traffic, Scheduling and Queueing

IEEE 802.1 Qbv.[5]

This is the standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks, MAC Bridges and Virtual Bridged Local Area Network (VB-LAN) Enhancement for scheduled traffic.

Codes and specs can be found on the links in the reference.

Transport Networks

These are carrier specific. Open source code repositories are not available.

WhatsApp changes to satisfy users needs and protect society

The popular messaging app is taking one of its best features, and making it better. All too often, WhatsApp new updates can be a pain to get used to – but the latest development appears to be one that the app’s users will love.

After much pressure, WhatsApp finally introduced the ability to delete messages in October last year – but only for seven minutes after they had sent it.

Now the app appears to be extending that time frame to over an hour.

According to information spotted by wabetainfo.com , Android beta users with the WhatsApp version number 2.18.69 will have the “Delete for Everyone” feature extended from 420 seconds to 4096 seconds – or 68 minutes and 16 seconds.

The blog post points out that, at the moment, it’s only available to Android users and not to anyone that owns an iPhone.

But it suggests that the world’s most popular messaging app – which is owned by Facebook – could roll out this change more widely in the future.

As well as the Delete for Everyone change, the site also notes there will be an upcoming feature called WhatsApp Stickers – another idea borrowed from Snapchat.

It’s expected that in order to be able to delete a message for longer, you will have to have the latest version of WhatsApp installed on your phone when the update arrives. Likewise, the recipients will also have to have the latest version installed.

This latest update follows on from reports that the app will soon start allowing in-app transfers to be sent between contacts.

The announcement comes after WhatsApp performed a limited testing period with around one million users in India as the country number one of using Whatsapp App and sharing information over it.
