Hello ns-users,
I got problem in the simulation secnario :
Let 25 nodes move into the overlapped of two Access Points, lots of packets
were dropped by DSDV_Agent.
ex: AP1 at (250, 250) , and AP2 is 50 meters away from AP1, i.e. (300,250)
Both APs have the transmission range with 50 meters
let these nodes move into the position of ( 275, 250 )
when the number of nodes is under 20, it works well with low packet loss rate.
Does anyone have ideas about the situation ?
I have traced dsdv/dsdv.cc , at the line of 900 about
dst = node_->base_stn();
prte = table_->GetEntry (dst);
if ( prte && prte->metric != BIG )
goto send ;
else {
fprintf(stderr, "warning: Route to base_stn not known: dropping pkt\n")
;
Packet::free(p);
return ;
}
however, the condition prte->metric != BIG is false, so packets were
dropped.
Therefore, is it possible that we can configure these nodes with different
frequency
( ex: assign channel 1 for 10 nodes, channel 6 for others )
such that we can reduce lots of packet loss rate in above simulation scenario ?
Thanks in advance for your reading.
