Abstract :
We experiment the rate offered by 802.11 on a multi-hops configuration constituted of a chain of mobiles. We show that the rate achieved on a four-hops chain is around 200 kb/s with wireless cards at 2 Mb/s and is very unstable. We also compare our experimental results to simulation results.
