- Name: Saffana Zyan Dini
- Research Direction:
Design non-3GPP W-AGF (Wireline Access Gateway Function For 5G WWC (Wireless and Wireline Convergence) to O-CU
- Briefly summarize your background and why you want to take this course:
I want to take this course because it is Important and relate with My lab and my future research. Last time in my bachelor degree, I have some research about WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) and currently I research about how to design 5G Core and O-RAN to connect it to W-AGF. Studying wireless communication is essential for a variety of reasons, as it plays a crucial role in our modern society. Keeping up with developments in this field is vital for individuals, industries, and society as a whole.

### A2: ns-3 Network Simulator (10pt)
- **Goal:**
- Part I: Study (30%)
- Learn the basic concept of ns-3;
- Install ns-3;
- Part II: Simulate the LTE network using ns-3 (40%)
- Execute an example for [LTE](https://www.nsnam.org/docs/models/html/lte-user.html)
- Define and generate a network topology by yourself, e.g.
- A square of 10 km x10 km.
- The center point is (0,0)
- 9 macro cells are located in (5,5), (0, 5) (-5, 5), (5,0), (0,0), (-5,0), (5,-5), (0, -5) (-5, -5). The cell radius of each macro cell is 5 km
- 30 micro cells, each has radius of 1 km, are randomly distributed in the square area
- 50 UEs are randomly distributed in the square area
- Explain the models you used in your simulation, e.g.,
- mobility model
- traffic model
- channel model by yourself
- Plot the performance metrics you simulated
