Abstract :
This paper reports on the emulation of ad-hoc networks based on the IEEE 802.11 standard using the Berkeley Network Simulator including its CMU Monarch (ad-hoc) extension (NS). We examined the emulation capabilities of the Network Simulator. Performance and verification tests also have been done using the emulator. Requirements of the emulator were tested. Some important attributes of emulation, like real-time requirements and CPU power were shown by the tests
