Create Wimax network in ns2 with different Traffic services



Note:

Before Trying this example make sure that your Ns2 works fine with wimax nist Package. 

Step 1:

Create wimax.tcl file and paste the below code into your wimax.tcl



#====================================================
# Test script to evaluate datarate in 802.16 networks.

#check input parameters
if {$argc != 3} {
puts ""
puts "Wrong Number of Arguments! 3 arguments for this script"
puts "Usage: ns datarate.tcl modulation cyclic_prefix "
        puts "modulation: OFDM_BPSK_1_2, OFDM_QPSK_1_2, OFDM_QPSK_3_4"
        puts "            OFDM_16QAM_1_2, OFDM_16QAM_3_4, OFDM_64QAM_2_3, OFDM_64QAM_3_4"

  1. Hi,

    I'm trying to implement a Wimax network in ns2. The code works fine in DSDV protocol, but when i change the protocol to aodv, the throughput values are all zero. There's no packet transmission. Can you help me on this?>

  2. I will try this hope this work for me as well

    redes wimax

  3. Thank you.

    I found this file for aodv.tcl at google code.
    http://code.google.com/p/ns2-wimax-awg/source/browse/trunk/branches/tud/ns-2.34/aodv/aodv.tcl?r=6

    If i add this aodv.tcl in my mobility folder, will it do? Do i need to ./configure make clean again?

  4. hey i am working on a project in wimax. While i am executing tcl script i am getting following error:

    please look into the problem and help me..

    1. I have wimax simulator with all five service classes and detailed instructions how to get results. I have also installed and patched it in vmware, so you can run it from windows also. I can send you my zip file, everything is there. Write me on kire_jakimoski@yahoo.com for more details. Regards, Kire.

  6. hie, this code is not executing:

    in terminal output is:
    Wrong Number of Arguments! 3 arguments for this script
    Usage: ns datarate.tcl modulation cyclic_prefix
    modulation: OFDM_BPSK_1_2, OFDM_QPSK_1_2, OFDM_QPSK_3_4

    rtPS scheduler: NIST_RR, RR, mSIR, WRR, TRS_RR, TRS_mSIR

    it implies that the code is not working, even the 8MN_out.res file is empty.
