[ns] Unknown Trace-Lines

2007-04-28 Thread Matthias Budde
Hi, My simulation tracefile shows a lot of lines for sent packets wich look like this: s -t 2.274370457 -Hs 362 -Hd -2 -Ni 362 -Nx 424.64 -Ny 601.31 -Nz 0.00 -Ne 9.978164 -Nl MAC -Nw --- -Ma 0 -Md 18a -Ms 0 -Mt 0 As far I understand it, those are neither normal (in my simulation i.e. udp)

As far as I know is what you wrote incorrect. It is possible to just use the free space model as a propagation model. Your description is accurate for the two ray ground model, which is composed of two formulas, first the same as with the free space model (Friis' transmission equation) and after

Hi, If you have set your $PATH correctly, you can put your script wherever you want to. You start ns with the command 'ns tclscript' (assuming that you are in the directory with the ns executable, or that your path points to that directory), where 'tclscript' is the name of a Tcl script

Hi Sara, All I can think of is a workaround, but its feasability depends on how many nodes you have and whether the boundaries are the same for all of them. Say you want your nodes move the way you described. You first run setdest with the maximum set to (x2-x1,y2-y1). That gives you a
