Hello everyone,
I am looking for a simulator which is able to simulate LTE-A networks specially D2D communication. I want to simulate some attacks (such as DoS,replay or etc.) and analyze the parameters such as throughput, packet delivery ratio and delay. for example I have a secure protocol for data sharing between UEs which is done in several steps between them by transmitting predefined messages to each other (in both user and control plane). Now, my question is about the simulating and analyzing that protocol with NS3. Is NS3 a suitable simulator for my case? If yes, why? otherwise, can anyone suggest me a good solution?
Cheers,
Atefeh
