In this paper, we introduce MATLAB-based link
and system level simulation environments for UMTS Long
Term Evolution (LTE). The source codes of both simulators
are available under an academic non-commercial use license
allowing researchers full access to standard-compliant simulation
environments. Due to the open source availability, the simulators
enable reproducible research in wireless communications and
comparison of novel algorithms.
In this work, we explain how link and system level simulations
are connected and show how the link level simulator serves as
a reference to design the system level simulator. We compare
the accuracy of the PHY modeling at system level by means of
simulations performed both with bit-accurate link level simulations and PHY-model-based system level simulations. We point
out some of the currently most interesting research questions for
LTE, and explain by some research examples how our simulators
can be applied.
