Description
Hello,
I'm having some problems with background traffic generation on base station.
I tried your example (simulations/NR/bgTraffic) in two different scenarios, one with 10 background UEs each generates 1000B packet every 10ms, while the other with 200 background UEs each generates 1000MB packet every 10ms.
Observing the results I noticed that the uplink delay (statistic cbrFrameDelay:mean in SingleCell_Standalone.server.app[0]) remains substantially the same.
I wonder if this is the right procedure to generate some background traffic at the base station and if the generator uses the same resource blocks of the MAC scheduler as for the UE.
Thanks for your help,
Valerio.

Research direction
Start with simulations/NR/bgTraffic and compare the two background-UE scenarios, focusing on SingleCell_Standalone.server.app[0].cbrFrameDelay:mean. Check whether the traffic generator uses the MAC scheduler's resource blocks like UE traffic; done means documenting the correct setup and explaining the similar uplink-delay results.
