Hello,

Please, I would like to emulate an SDN based heteregenous RAN composed of LTE nodes as well as WIFI Aps.

I know that MininetWifi is a good emulator but for SDN WIFI APs. However, it would not give accurate results if the specification of access point are changed to behave as Lte eNodeB.

Based on the work cited below, OpenNet does not provide high-level abstraction APIs for wireless links nor emulation of wireless nodes (e.g., access points and stations are not equipped with wireless network interfaces), and neither mechanisms to select new access points before disconnection of current link to further shorten handover latency.

Please, any recommendation or suggestion on which emulator to use to support both RATs (Wifi/LTE)

Thank you in advanced
