Name	Type	Description
BackgroundUe	compound module	This module implements a lightweight model for 4G or 5G User Equipment (UE). It is used to simulate the generation of background traffic in both uplink and downlink bandwidths, according to the logic specified by its ITrafficGenerator submodule. The generated traffic is not actually transmitted or received by this module, making it more efficient from a simulation complexity perspective. Instead, such traffic modifies the buffer status information that is used by the BackgroundScheduler to allocate resources. Each background UE has a mobility submodule to configure its position in the simulation floor plan. This allows for realistic channel status information to be computed for the background UE and used by the BackgroundScheduler. Since this module does not send or receive actual traffic, application-level statistics are not produced.
