[ns] Periodic backoff in 802.11

hello... i am trying to implement a periodic backoff scenario instead of random type currently used in IEEE 802.11 DCF; This is for my project in ns2 based on an IEEE 2011 paper. My query is about the correctness of method of my implementation: change the mh_backoff function present in the

[ns] hidden terminals in wireless

hi guys. where do we define whether the wireless network is complex (with hidden terminals) or simple (no hidden terminals)? - in the .tcl file or the backend .cc file ? thanks

[ns] period controlled MAC

I am working on a masters [paper][1] where I am trying to change the random waiting time for MAC wireless networks to a Period-controlled MAC for higher performance. There are a couple of existing c++ files that need alterations to change them from random to periodic. I have narrowed it down to

[ns] NS@ debugging

Hi guys, This may sound trivial; but I wanted to know if NS2 has any default debugger that can debug both tcl and the 'backend' .cc files? Thanks in advance

[ns] finding consecutive collisions

hello, I was trying to find the number of consecutive collisions in wireless network with the following logic: int collision = 0; while (rx_state_ == MAC_COLL) { collision++; } return collision; the problem is I think the above code results in infinite loop; Any help will be appreciated.
