Why did not I see Digital to Analog Converter (DAC) block in MATLAB 5G toolbox?

Hi,

I was trying to understand the MATLAB 5G toolbox. However, I did not see any DAC block in any given example of link level simulation or testing example given in MATLAB 5G documentation. For example,

Am I missing something? Any suggetion would help.

Hello Hasan,

I understand you're searching for a Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) block to simulate DAC behavior. The 5G Toolbox primarily focuses on modeling and simulating the physical layer of 5G wireless communication systems. This includes aspects like channel modeling, waveform generation, modulation, coding, and link-level simulations. It does not include a specific DAC block among its built-in blocks or examples.

If you wish to integrate a DAC model into your simulation, you can create a MATLAB function to represent DAC behavior. For more information, you can refer to the following documentation: [MATLAB Function Documentation](https://in.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2021b/matlab/ref/function.html).

I hope this information is helpful!
