Sir
I tried simulating two cells first has one base station and one user equipment whereas second has one base station and two user equipment’s. It is giving me an error given below:
In an assignment A(:) = B, the number of elements in A and B must be the same.

Error in Elements.BaseStation/generateTransmitSignal (line 80)
modulationMatTemp(~logical(sum(currentMod.ChannelEstimator.PilotMatrix,3)))
= dataSymbolsPrecoded(:,iAntenna);

Error in main (line 81)
BS{iBS}.generateTransmitSignal(LinksParFor);

Hi,

there is likely an error with the simulated topology or antenna configuration. Please post the entire simulation parameters from the scenario file such that I can review them.

Sir
I have been running this code with different power delay profiles like pedestrian A ,Vehicular A so on
each time it gives different error.

Sir
whenever i run simple topologies with vehicularA and ExtendedVehicular A it takes more than 2 hrs to run.Is there any solution to this problem

[Stefan Pratschner]

Hi,

in your topology and link configuration you assign UE1 to BS1 and UE2 and UE3 to BS2:

% Primary (desired) links
scStr.topology.primaryLinks = [ ‘BS1:UE1,’…
‘BS2:UE2,’…% downlink links only
‘BS2:UE3’ ];

However, in your downlink schedule, you assign UE1 and UE2 to BS1 and UE3 to BS2:

%% Schedule
% both users are scheduled the same total bandwidth
scStr.schedule.fixedSchedule{1} = [ ‘UE1:96,UE2:112’ ]; % first user gets the upper half of the first cells’s schedule
scStr.schedule.fixedSchedule{2} = [ ‘none:28,UE3:24’ ]; % second user gets the lower half of the second cells’s schedule

which is not consistent with your topology setting.

Hi,

regarding the simulation time: The channel PDP model does not have any impact on the run time. However, as you are using 1000 frames, the simulation will take some time of course. I recommend to test you desired settings with a lower number of frames, e.g., 100, and then to increase the number of frames for more significant results once you verified that your settings lead to expected behavior.

Sir
The above problem is solved..Thanks alot but i have a doubt regarding scheduling of resources.I have 2 cells one of which has one base station and one user equipment and another has one base station and one user equipment. I did the scheduling in order to provide UE1 36 subcarriers and 12 subcarriers as guard band whereas 12 subcarriers to UE2 AND 12 SUBCARRIERS AS GUARD BAND.Is it correct.

% parameters for UFMC
scStr.modulation.nSubcarriersPerSubband = [12, 12]; % number of subcarriers per subband

scStr.modulation.mcs = [15, 15];
scStr.modulation.nStreams = [2, 2];
scStr.modulation.precodingMatrix{1} = 1/sqrt(2) * eye(2);
scStr.modulation.precodingMatrix{2} = 1/sqrt(2) * eye(2);

% time and bandwidth setup
scStr.modulation.subcarrierSpacing = [15e3, 30e3]; % select a four times bigger subcarrier spacing in the second cell
scStr.modulation.numerOfSubcarriers = [96, 48]; % to have the same bandwidth, the total number of subcarriers must be one fourth on the second cell
scStr.modulation.nSymbolsTotal = [15, 30]; % to have the same frame duration, the total number of symbols must be four times higher in the second cell
scStr.modulation.nGuardSymbols = [1, 2]; % the total guard time has to be four times larger in the second cell to make frame durations match
scStr.modulation.samplingRate = 15e3*72*2; % sampling rate has to be the same for all nodes (across all base stations):
% either numeric value for manual setting or ‘Automatic’
scStr.modulation.oversamplingFactor = 2; % oversampling factor for sampling rate calculation, should be at least two

% both users are scheduled the same total bandwidth

scStr.schedule.fixedSchedule{2} = [ ‘none:36,UE2:12’ ]`

———————————————————–

If i wish to add more UEs in this system.can we write this:
scStr.schedule.fixedSchedule{1} = [ ‘UE1:36,UE2:60’ ]; % first user gets the upper half of the first cells’s schedule
scStr.schedule.fixedSchedule{2} = [ ‘UE3:36,UE4:12’ ]

[Stefan Pratschner]

With this setting there are 540kHz in between the users, which corresponds to 36 subcarriers at 15kHz or to 18 subcarriers at 30kHz.
