Hello, I was trying to analyze the number of packet collisions. Extracted the 5th column "COL" from the MAC trace. The trace looked something like this ...
D 73.166918839 _92_ MAC COL 0 AODV 100 [0 ffffffff 3e 800] [energy 97.766197] ------- [62:255 -1:255 25 0] [0x2 6 11 [107 0] [27 24]] (REQUEST) D 73.166918862 _103_ MAC COL 0 AODV 100 [0 ffffffff 3e 800] [energy 97.765718] ------- [62:255 -1:255 25 0] [0x2 6 11 [107 0] [27 24]] (REQUEST) D 73.166918875 _47_ MAC COL 0 AODV 100 [0 ffffffff 3e 800] [energy 97.765476] ------- [62:255 -1:255 25 0] [0x2 6 11 [107 0] [27 24]] (REQUEST) D 73.166918879 _101_ MAC COL 0 AODV 100 [0 ffffffff 3e 800] [energy 97.766200] ------- [62:255 -1:255 25 0] [0x2 6 11 [107 0] [27 24]] (REQUEST) Could someone suggest what this is supposed to mean ? Is this the way we calculate packet collisions ? Regards, Goutham
