Hi Faisal,
If u want to measure the transmission delay, how can u do it by noting
the time of transmission and reception from the sender and the receiver
respectively, until their clocks are synchronised to each other? Have u
already taken care of this synchronisation?
One scheme I can suggest for measuring the end-to-end delay (round-trip)
is, once the message reaches the destination from the src by the multi-hop
path, send some kind of reply/ACK message all the way back to the sender,
following the same route. Notice the time when this reply/ACK reaches the
original src, and take the time difference with the time the message was
sent out from this sender, divide it by 2.
My approach may sound too naive, let's see if someone else comes up with
some better idea.

Thanks for replies.
I got the idea, but still at one hop the behavior should be like once the
source send one packet sendDone shd be called after that receiver's
recieve() method.
Actually im trying to calculate the delay between transmission and
reception. I have put DBG statement in src's sendDone() and DBG statement in
receiver's recieve() method. When i try simulation of two nodes always DBG
of receiver invokes first than src's DBG. if someone knows some method to
calculate delay than it will be more than good.

sendDone is signaled when the packet is transmitted. The error code
denotes whether or not the transmission succeeded. Reasons for
failure can include the radio being turned off mid-transmission,
hardware failure, etc.
You will never receive a sendDone before the packet is transmitted.
That would release the packet buffer to the application, which is
problematic.
Note that since sendDone denotes a data-link (single-hop)
transmission, it is signaled when the packet goes one hop, not the
multihop frame within arrives at its destination.
