LteNicEnbD2D

compound module

The LteNicEnbD2D module represents an LTE eNodeB network interface with support for D2D (Device-to-Device) communications. It extends the basic LteNicEnb module to manage D2D-capable UEs (User Equipments). A D2D mode selection algorithm can be specified using the 'd2dModeSelectionType' parameter.
