Hi, I am trying to use the energy model to track the energy consumption of my protocol in wireless networks. I have the 802.11 as the MAC layer and AODV as routing protocol. Then, above on them, I implemented my own protocol.
The problem is that I do not know how to use the Energy Model provided in ns2.34. Is there any tutorial available or docs for the Energy Model? I have referred to ns Manual. But the explanation there is really outdated. I have also search online and only find a notification for the update in Energy Model. http://www.isi.edu/ilense/software/smac/ns2_energy.html and there is an example: -energyModel $opt(energymodel) \ -idlePower 1.0 \ -rxPower 1.0 \ -txPower 1.0 \ -sleepPower 0.001 \ -transitionPower 0.2 \ -transitionTime 0.005 \ -initialEnergy $opt(initialenergy) I understand the values above. Another question is that I have looked into the source codes in wireless-phy.cc, and do the above commands in tcl set the relative value in wireless-phy class? For example, does idelPower 1.0 set the P_idle_ in WirelessPhy class to 1.0? Thanks. Yi Gong darkblue.win...@gmail.com
