| Abstract: | The running time for high fidelity simulation
of large-scale mobile ad hoc networks can be prohibitively
high. The execution time of physical effects calculations for
a single transmission alone can grow unmanageable to account
for all potential receivers. Discrete event simulators
can also suffer from excessive generation and processing of
events, both due to network size and model complexity. In
this paper, we present three levels of abstracting the IEEE
802.11 RTS/CTS channel access mechanism. In the process
of assessing their ability to mitigate runtime-cost while
retaining comparable results to that of a commercially
available simulator, OPNET, we found that the abstractions
were better suited to collecting one metric over another. |
