Mimodium

Mimodium is a Python research library for reproducible cell-free massive MIMO system-level simulations. It provides Dagreon task components for scenario generation, propagation and channel modeling, signal-processing algorithms, evaluation metrics, and visualization.

The documentation is available on Read the Docs.

Installation

Mimodium requires Python 3.12 or newer. Install the published package with:

python -m pip install mimodium

To install Mimodium from a source checkout, run:

python -m pip install .

Development

The recommended development environment uses Pixi. From the repository root, install the locked environment and the editable Mimodium package with:

pixi install

Check formatting and lint the package, tests, and documentation with:

pixi run format-check
pixi run lint

Before merging a release commit or publishing a GitHub release, run the same release checks used by the publishing workflow:

pixi run release-check

Developers who do not use Pixi can instead create a virtual environment and install the development extra directly:

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"

Testing

Run the complete test suite with:

pixi run test

Building the Documentation

Build a local HTML preview with:

pixi run sphinx-build -b html docs docs/_build/html

The generated documentation is written to docs/_build/html.

For release validation, build the documentation with warnings treated as errors:

pixi run sphinx-build -E -W --keep-going -b html docs docs/_build/html
