Site-Specific System Simulator for Wireless Communications

Site-Specific System Simulator for Wireless Communications (S4W) is a collaborative PSE for the design and analysis of wideband wireless communications systems. In contrast to other current projects, the S4W project occurred in parallel with the development of high-fidelity propagation and channel models.

One of the major contributions of S4W is a lightweight data management subsystem that supports the experiment definition, data acquisition, data analysis, and inference processes in wireless system design. In particular, this facility helps manage the execution environment, binds representations to appropriate implementations in a scientific computing language, and aids in reasoning about models and model instances.
