Abstract :
With the development of telecommunication engineering and mobile computing, some related curricula are provided in lots of universities and colleges in our country. However, many students complain that they have to spend a lot of time in learning materials and are frustrated with them. This paper describes WNTLS, a wireless network teaching and learning system based on the network simulator (NS-2) that facilitates students to model, tune and analyze the performance of various types of wireless networks in the telecommunication engineering curricula.
