Hi,

I am a newbie to NS.

I am trying to simulate a simple Tdma in a wireless setting using the
mac-tdma provided with ns. I found that, there was a huge switching
(approx 0.1s) time between slots. Now, I am not interested in
practical implementation but trying simulate a "ideal" Tdma mac
protocol that does not have any switching delays between the nodes and
BaseStation: what parameters am I to change?

Basically, I would like to know what are the contributing factors to a
big switching time in Tdma mac protocols.

I tried to read the mac-tdma(cc,h) and found that it could be because
preamble size (which I reduced to zero and did not find a lot of
change).

thanks in advance
