Re: [ns] Broadcast data in NS2
Hi ! In order to send broadcast messages, I use my own Agent which is quite similar to the p_bcast proposed here (http://www.crhc.illinois.edu/wireless/assignments/simulations/lab108.html ) Maybe you could use it for your sensor scenario. You just have to put the following lines in your tcl file: # Create your Agent set pbcast_($i) [new Agent/MessagePassing/MyPBCast] $ns_ attach-agent $node_($i) $pbcast_($i) $node_($i) attach $pbcast_($i) 90 $pbcast_($i) set agent_port_ 90 $pbcast_($i) setprob 1 . . . # Node 0 will send a broadcast packet $pbcast_(0) send Hope it will help you. Quoc Huy My Y wrote: Hi everybody, I have my project simulating wireless sensor networks that each sensor node broadcasts its sensed data to neighboring sensor nodes in the range. I do not need routing protocol, just normally one node broadcast packet and neigboring nodes receive that packet. Could anybody please help me how to do that? Does anyone know if any NS2 version or NS2 extension supports broadcasting? Please help me. Thank you in advanced.

[ns] video tracefile anomalies
I have the following problem to get my trace simulation working . I would
like to simulate a simple video streaming client server simulation with two
routers and client server node. I'm using a video trace file
(Verbose_Jurassic_64.dat) from
http://trace.eas.asu.edu/tools/ns-example2.tar.gz.
The following codes has been modified from the above codes. The codes run on
my ubuntu 8.04 with ns2.31allinone ok but the .tr file output from the
simulation shows weird output. The packets queue about 99% percent of the
simulation time.

Re: [ns] sending a packet to a node
Hi,
I need to send message from node 1 to node 2 (such as "what is your actual
postion ") and the node
2 answer by a message reply.
If anyone have an idea about that please can you forward it to me because
I'm stuck!!
It will be a great help for me to advance in my project.
Thank you in advance and I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

[ns] Why do I receive "Invalid MAC Control subtype"?
Dear all, Can somebody tell me why exactly the "Invalid MAC Control subtype" message is being produced by mac-802_11 module? I have changed the ACK packet structure, and have not touched MAC header. This error message that always appears only when I increase the number of nodes in the network. And this makes me believe that my modifications should not be the source of the problem. When I tracked down the problem, I understood that the packet had a correct type and subtype before the defer timer being set, but somehow, the header becomes null when the defer timer expires and MAC goes to check_pktCTRL subroutine. Any idea why this message was originally put in the check_pkt* subroutines? Or any specific reason why the header might become null? Any kind of help is really appreciated.

Re: [ns] Mobile Node Turns off at wrong time instance
Hi Mubashir,
Thanks for the quick response.
I have 4 files: 1) the simulation parameters TCL file , 2) the mobility
file, 3) the node's on/off file 4) the data file (says when nodes send
some data)
I make sure that each mobile node sends some data in the network when it
is ON. In some cases i see some data are lost simply because
when the node tries to send something it's energy model is OFF.
I always perform the following check before sending something:
if ( true == thisNode->energy_model()->node_on() ){
send_data
}
thanks.

Hi,
But the question is that how you made synchronize your nodes to switch
to on/off states with the data you are providing with the file?

Hello,
I face a problem with NS2 Mobile Nodes.
I have a file in which i specify when individual nodes turn on /
off and
this file is passed as input in the NS2 simulation.
Some mobile nodes turn off at different time instances than the ones
specified in this file and this results
to files getting dropped.
Has anyone experienced this before?
What do you suggest?
Thanks in advance.
