Abstract

This paper describes a generic link layer simulation environment for multiple antenna systems in MATLAB and OCTAVE, for both Windows and Unix/Linux operating systems: LiLaS. The simulator is functionally divided into modules, sub-modules and models with a common interface for the convenience of modification and reconfiguration. Currently, it accommodates a variety of transmission schemes, including single-carrier and multiple-carrier MIMO, Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (OFDM), OFDM/Offset QAM, Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA), filtered multitone (FMT) and RFID which have extensive applications in modern communication technologies, e.g., WLAN 802.11 a/b/g/n, WiMAX, UWB, 3G, LTE, LTE advanced, IMT advanced, xDSL, DVB, etc.
