Application of simulation technology in reliability measure of ad hoc network

Measuring the reliability of ad hoc network with the approach of mathematic modeling usually needs a lot of assumptions, which not only cannot consider all kinds of reliability stochastic effect factors comprehensively, but also the computation is hard to proceed. Presently, measuring the reliability of ad hoc network with the approach of reliability simulation becomes current trend. This paper has introduced simulation scenario and key simulation model design for reliability measure of ad hoc network specifically, illustrated simulation measure approach and discussed the development direction in the future.
