Emulating small scale MANET topologies
نویسندگان
چکیده
While network simulators are commonly used to test MANET routing protocols, no similar tool exist to perform evaluations of implementations with real hardware. In this paper, a solution to emulate MANET topologies and to assist implementations debugging is described. It uses well known UNIX networking features to enhance and ease interoperability tests, as well as MANET demonstrations. The system was the key tool that helps to validate WIDE’s project implementation of OLSR6.

Complex networks properties analysis for mobile ad hoc networks
Recently, research on complex network theory and applications draws a lot of attention in both academy and industry. In mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) area of research, a critical issue is to design the most effective topology for given problems. It is natural and significant to consider complex networks topology when optimising the MANET topology. Current works usually transform MANET or sens...

متن کاملThe Study of Large-scale MANET Distributed Share Routing Protocol
MANET routing protocol based on P2P has become a hot topic, but mainly researches on small or medium MANET did not take full advantage of P2P distributed share theory, there still exist detour and inefficiency problems. This paper presents large-scale MANET distributed share routing model based on P2P. It introduces layered mechanism based on network physical topology to enhance network scalabi...
متن کاملA Review on Congestion Control in Ad-hoc Network
In wireless network communication mobile network communication has becomes very important. Manet is a temporary network that means nodes moves without any fixed infrastructure. In Manet nodes are generally communicated with each other over various wireless links and also changes network topologies due to nodes are movable. Routing is a problem in Manet because there is no router between source ...
