How to get time of packet received by node

[deepak jeswani]

Hi,

I want to get time when a node receive a packet for first time. that is i have 2 nodes (wireless, not in range right now) in my simulator and they have TCP connection in between them. So i want to get time when my node 2 will get packet from node one.
Can anyone please tell me that.

Thanks

Regards
deepak

Hello Deepak,

To know about the receive time of a packet, you need to extract the
information from trace file.

This can be done by using either AWK Scripts or MATLAB or PERL
Scripts.

AWK scripts are available on my blog: www.mohittahiliani.blogspot.com

However you may not find an AWK script which gives you the exact
information regarding receive time of a packet.

You can use AWK script designed for average end-to-end delay because
we need send time and receive time to calculate delay.

If you have any doubts in understanding AWK script, please feel free
to mail me.

Hope it helps.

Sir,

NO actually i want that time while simulation is going on so that i can trigger other things on its basis. So what i want exactly is that when a mobile node (node 1) comes in range of a node (node 2) than that node (node 2) should send a packet to another node (node 3) that mobile node (node 1) is in my range (packet can be simple ftp over tcp just to act like it is telling other node this info). So please now help me out if you can. Please hurry. 

Thanks
