Hi,

I have simulated a wireless network scenario in which hosts transmit data to a specfic server using FTP. I am using bitrate of 12Mbps for the network, yet at best the maximum throughput achieved is around 1.5Mbps. Can anyone please guide me what is it that I am doing wrong?

I am attaching the ned, ini and xml files below:

.ned Script:

import inet.networklayer.configurator.ipv4.Ipv4NetworkConfigurator;

import inet.node.inet.Router;

import inet.node.inet.WirelessHost;

import inet.node.wireless.AccessPoint;

import inet.physicallayer.ieee80211.packetlevel.Ieee80211ScalarRadioMedium;

import inet.visualizer.contract.IIntegratedVisualizer;

network Wirelesscongestion

{

@display("bgb=800,400");

submodules:

visualizer: <default("IntegratedCanvasVisualizer")> like IIntegratedVisualizer if hasVisualizer() {

parameters:

@display("p=50,103;is=s");

}

radioMedium: Ieee80211ScalarRadioMedium {

parameters:

@display("p=49,59;is=s");

}

configurator: Ipv4NetworkConfigurator {

parameters:

@display("p=50,17;is=s");

}

parameters:

@display("p=230,100");

}

Host2: WirelessHost {

@display("p=230,160");

}

Host3: WirelessHost {

@display("p=230,220");

}

@display("p=230,280");

}

ap1: AccessPoint {

parameters:

@display("p=310,190");

}

router: Router {

parameters:

@display("p=410,190");

}

ap2: AccessPoint {

parameters:

@display("p=510,190");

}

Server1: WirelessHost {

parameters:

@display("p=590,100");

}

Server2: WirelessHost {

parameters:

@display("p=590,160");

}

Server3: WirelessHost {

parameters:

@display("p=590,220");

}

Server4: WirelessHost {

@display("p=590,280");

}
