LteNicUeD2D

compound module

This module represents a Device-to-Device (D2D) capable User Equipment (UE) network interface. It extends the basic LTE UE functionality by adding D2D communication capabilities, allowing direct communication between UEs without the need to route traffic through the base station.

Inheritance diagram

The following diagram shows inheritance relationships for this type. Unresolved types are missing from the diagram.

Known subclasses

Name	Type	Description
NRNicUe	compound module	This module defines a User Equipment (UE) network interface card that supports both LTE and NR (New Radio) technologies. It extends the LteNicUeD2D module by adding additional submodules and parameters to support NR-specific functionalities.

Extends

Name	Type	Description
LteNicUe	compound module	The LteNicUe module is a network interface that provides LTE connectivity within a UE (User Equipment). It implements the data and signaling planes of the LTE stack, which includes PDCP, RLC, MAC, and PHY layers. The parameters and submodules allow customization of the UE's behavior.
