So some +critical extensions or modifications of those imlementations must be done +in order to enable lte channel emulation in ns3. + +To avoid making changes directly on the ns3 codebase, which may lead to needs +of recompiling ns3 library and other packages depending on ns3, here all the +modifications or extensions are implemented by rewriting or inheriting of existing +ns3 class. These extensions shall be linked with lte emulator program and +ns3 library such that those critical modifications can take into play when running +lte emulator program. + +Since all those modifications are for purpose of enabling integration lte network +with tap device in ns3, all the extension files/classes have "tap" in their namings. |
