Integrated Access Backhaul node in 5G NR library

Hello,

I am trying to simulate Integrated Access/Backhaul (IAB) in 5G (System-level Simulation). I can not find any object for that in Matlab. Is there anyway to make an IAB node in Matlab?!

Kind regards,

Pooria

Have you looked at the Communications Toolbox: https://www.mathworks.com/help/comm/ ?

Thanks for answering. yes I have checked the communication toolbox too, but it is not there. I am mostly looking for helper libraries like hNRUE or hNRGNB, ... so I could use "hWirelessNetworkSimulator".

It is my understanding that you are trying to simulate Integrated Access/Backhaul (IAB) in 5G (System-level Simulation).

In 5G Toolbox, 'hNRGNB' and 'hNRUE' helper classes are present. These are used to create 'gNB' and 'UE' nodes respectively, containing RLC,MAC and PHY layers. Please refer to this documentation to see how these helper classes are utilized.
