An architecture for the implementation of mesh networks in OMNeT++
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the implementation in OMNeT++ of a versatile protocol architecture for the simulation of 802.11 Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs). The developed modules enable the routing at the 802.11 MAC layer as well as a packet forwarding technique based on label paths. The performance of the new architecture is compared with that of a typical IP OLSR ad hoc network proving that link layer routing (IP) can be completely substituted by the developed modules.

متن کاملImplementation of a programmable neuron in CNTFET technology for low-power neural networks
Circuit-level implementation of a novel neuron has been discussed in this article. A low-power Activation Function (AF) circuit is introduced in this paper, which is then combined with a highly linear synapse circuit to form the neuron architecture. Designed in Carbon Nanotube Field-Effect Transistor (CNTFET) technology, the proposed structure consumes low power, which makes it suitable for the...
متن کاملVirtualMesh: an emulation framework for wireless mesh networks in OMNeT++
Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN) have proven to be a key technology for increased network coverage of Internet infrastructures. The development process for new protocols and architectures in the area of WMN is typically split into evaluation by network simulation and testing of a prototype in a test-bed. Testing a prototype in a real test-bed is time-consuming and expensive. Irrepressible external ...
