Re: [ns] Question on routing overhead - not the formula

2012-05-16 Thread Mateus Augusto Silva Santos
Considering that you sent some packets (and none of them was received), you can compute the routing overhead of any algorithm by counting the control packets of the trace (filter for RTR and/or something related to the control packet, such as RREQ and RREP). Note that a routing algorithm can have

Thanks for your guides. However, the mobile node MUST decide when to move and when to stop. As far as I know the pause time, which can be set via dist command through TCL, was used to determine the nodes stop behaviour, i.e. to stop at fixed time. regards, Husam Y. ALZAQ Istanbul

Hello ns-users,I am using NS-2 for creating a mobile node. actually those nodes are Wireless Sensor Nodes created by mannasim. My scinario as the following a mobile node will move between 4 places and wait for some time and it issues 4 move commandes like set_destination(new_x,new_y,SPEED); set

[ns] Question on routing overhead - not the formula

2012-05-16 Thread Aslinda Hassan
Hi everyone I have a quick question regarding routing overhead. How do we count routing overhead if the received data packet is zero? In my case, the received data packet is expected to be zero due to a sparse network, but I still need to calculate the routing overhead. I just want to know
