NCTUns SIMULATOR FOR WIRELESS VEHICULAR AD HOC NETWORK RESEARCH
نویسندگان
چکیده
This chapter introduces an integrated network and traffic simulation platform, called NCTUns. This platform provides the capabilities of road network simulation, communication and network protocol simulation, vehicular traffic simulation, and a feedback loop among them. As such, it is very suitable for advanced wireless vehicular ad hoc network research where a vehicle needs to change its moving behavior after receiving a message from a neighboring vehicle or from an infrastructure network. In this chapter, we present the platform architecture of NCTUns and illustrate its operations for conducting advanced wireless vehicular ad hoc network research. More information about this open source tool is available at http://NSL.csie.nctu.edu.tw/nctuns.html.

متن کاملSimulating VANET Scenario in NCTUns-6. 0
A Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network ( VANET) is a form of Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) which provides safety to vehicle drivers by communicating with nearby vehicles. A vehicle in VANET is considered to be an intelligent mobile node capable of communicating with its neighbours in the network. VANET is different from MANET due to high mobility of nodes and the large scale of networks. In this paper, we ...
