Integration of the 3GPP TR 38.901 fast fading model (GSoC 2019)

Tommaso Zugno requested to merge tommasozugno/ns-3-dev:three-gpp-channel-2 into master

This MR contains new classes implementing the fast fading model described in 3GPP TR 38.901, Sec. 7.5 and new models for antenna arrays.

In particular:

  • the class ThreeGppChannel implements the procedure to generate the channel matrix

  • the class ThreeGppSpectrumPropagationLossModel extends the SpectrumPropagationLossModel interface. It computes the received PSD by applying the beamforming and accounting for the small scale fading

  • the example three-gpp-channel-example shows how to configure the 3GPP channel model classes to compute the SNR between two nodes

  • the class AntennaArrayBasicModel provides an interface for the modeling of antenna arrays supporting beamforming operations

  • the class AntennaArrayModel models an isotropic rectangular antenna array

  • documentation and test cases are provided

Note: to use this branch rebase it on top of three-gpp-channel (https://gitlab.com/tommasozugno/ns-3-dev/tree/three-gpp-channel)
