DESCRIPTION:This event is a tutorial Day on “Simulation Tools for 5G New 
 Radio”\n\nThe morning Session will be on “5G New Radio simulations wit
 h ns-3”\, presented by Lorenza Giupponi\, form CTTC\, while the afternoo
 n session will be on “Understanding the 5G-air-simulator: A tutorial on 
 design criteria\, technical components\, and reference use cases”\, by G
 iuseppe Piro and Sergio Martiradonna\, from Politecnico di Bari.\n\nAbstra
 cts and content are below.\n\nMORNING SESSION - 5G New Radio simulations w
 ith ns-3\n\nAbstract and covered topics: This tutorial is designed as an i
 ntroduction to the 5G New Radio modules of ns-3. By the end of the session
 \, participants should have a basic understanding of the scope of the 5G N
 ew Radio module in ns-3\, and of the capability that the module and its br
 anches can offer.\n\nThe following elements are planned to be covered:\n\n
 • Basics of 3GPP NR at PHY and MAC\n• Evolution across releases\n• N
 R model overview &amp; architecture\n• Modeling assumptions\n• Channel mod
 el and antenna models\n• NR Radio Protocol Stack model\n• PHY model\n
 • HARQ\n• MAC models\n• MAC Scheduler models\n• RLC and PDCP proto
 col models\n• RRC model\n• Other branches\n\nAFTERNOON SESSION - Under
 standing the 5G-air-simulator: A tutorial on design criteria\, technical c
 omponents\, and reference use cases\n\nAbstract and covered topics: The 5G
  air interface\, also known as New Radio\, is providing a significant tran
 sformation in the mobile network landscape. It introduces flexible and het
 erogeneous capabilities to harmoniously blend numerous technical component
 s since a variety of advanced services are being developed\, each one enta
 iling different requirements. Nonetheless\, the effective management of su
 ch a broad diversity is a challenging task to accomplish.\n\nAs is well kn
 own\, computer simulations are relentlessly engaged in the pursuit of exis
 ting research questions on how to design\, evaluate\, and optimize emergin
 g communication technologies. In this context\, the 5G-air-simulator aims 
 to represent a significant step forward for the 5G simulation tools scene.
 \n\nIn particular\, 5G-air-simulator is an open-source and event-driven to
 ol modeling the key elements of the 5G air interface from a system-level p
 erspective. It implements several network architectures with multiple cell
 s and users\, different mobility and application models\, a calibrated lin
 k-to-system model for physical and data-link layers\, and a wide range of 
 features standardized for both control and user planes\, as well as a set 
 of technical components recently designed for the 5G air interface (such a
 s massive Multiple Input Multiple Output\, extended multicast and broadcas
 t transmission schemes\, predictor antennas\, enhanced random access proce
 dure\, and NB-IoT). Moreover\, it allows a flexible configuration\, arrang
 ement\, and extension of its capabilities to model both new scenarios and 
 new technical components\, hence supporting advanced studies willing to ad
 dress the research questions emerging from the deployment of current and u
 pcoming mobile systems.\n\nThis tutorial will first present 5G-air-simulat
 or and its general-purpose features. Then it will describe a series of sim
 ulation campaigns for typical 5G scenarios\, recently investigated in scie
 ntific literature and European projects. Moreover\, it will explain the sy
 ntax used to perform some simulations\, as well as the steps to extract th
 e main KPIs\, in order to facilitate an immediate usage of 5G-air-simulato
 r.\n\nOrganized by:\n\nTeamUp5G MSCA ITN/ETN\nVTS Portugal Chapter\nConfTe
