5G Traffic Simulation – Intel

I worked as a Wireless Software Engineer at Intel for just over a year for my internship.

Whilst at Intel I developed a real-time diagnostics tool and worked on generating and simulating 5G traffic. The biggest challenge in this was simulating the vast amounts of data a fully loaded 5G network can handle – this involved exploring parallel workloads in depth as well as using custom NICs and drivers to handle such a large amount of network traffic.

This data was generated and then fed into a frontend I also wrote that provided real-time graphs of network performance and load. The network simulation was written in C and the frontend made use of Qt and C++.
