Get Started with Wireless Network Toolbox
Wireless Network Toolbox™ enables you to model and simulate wireless networks, including 5G, WLAN, Bluetooth®, and mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). You can analyze network behavior in real-world scenarios to evaluate key performance metrics, such as throughput, spectral efficiency, packet loss ratio, latency, and quality of service.
You can simulate coexistence between heterogeneous networks, such as WLAN and Bluetooth, and explore complex wireless networks using customizable building blocks. These blocks include wireless communication nodes, wireless channels, node placement and mobility models, data traffic generation, logging, and visualization tools. You can also assess how network parameters, like node density and placement, affect overall performance, helping you gain deeper insight into network dynamics.
