Abstract

While there exist many papers that compare the performances of different routing protocols for wireless ad hoc networks, these simulations are often using the same simplistic assumptions for the physical layer modeling. In this paper, we propose to combine techniques like ray tracing, Markov chains and experimental data in order to design an high-accuracy physical layer that can be implemented in the NS-2.
