Hello,
I am trying to simulate Heterogeneous Wireless networks in ns3 that is combination of WiFi,WiMax,LTE. Please let me know how this can be done in ns3.

Thank you

Hi,

you can simulate all the 3 technologies you mentioned, and you can have a node with all the 3 at once.
What may be a bit of an issue is how you want to make them work together. Usually the nets in a HetNet are glued together by other protocols (e.g., MIPv6) and they're managed by a connection manager (see the Android connection manager).
You may have to develop specific parts, depending on the kind of simulation you want to do and the type of data you want to obtain.

Hope this helps,

T.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Plz tell me how can we take multiple interface in a MOBILE NODE. Plz provide the code.

Your contribution in this regard will be  appreciated.

Thank you

Thank you.

Hi,

Please read the tutorial. There are examples where nodes have multiple interfaces (wired and wireless).
In the same way you can 'install' as many interfaces as you want. 
If you also install a mobility model on that node, then you have a mobile node!

The examples and tutorials are created in order to teach you how to perform the tasks you want. 
Please study them and if you do not understand a particular method, then ask again. This group is not here to write the code for you.
See for example in the examples for wireless, how a WiFi interface is installed, then in the LTE examples, how you set up a LTE.
Finally, create your own scenario where the node will have both the WiFi and the LTE interface.

Hai dear Konstantinos ,

I want to ask onething?  right now i am working on the congestion problem in LTE using Ns3 simulator.. i want to know is there any examples for show the congestion problems in LTE network

and do you have any ides for this?  how i can do that?

I beg your pardon, but... what your question have to do with the thread topic ?
- if it does have something in common, please specify it better.
- if it doesn't, you should start a new thread.

No questions / discussions unrelated to the main thread will be answered.

T.
