CSMA-CA Simulation

To run

1. cd into folder "ns-3.34": cd path_to_ns-3.34
2. Clone this repository: git clone https://github.com/mindt102/csma-ca-simulation.git
3. Move main.sh from csma-ca-simulation into ns-3.34: mv csma-ca-simulation/main.sh .
4. Edit main.sh to change the parameters
5. Run main.sh by ./main.sh or bash main.sh

To analyze

1. cd into csma-ca-simulation: cd csma-ca-simulation
2. To analyze an XML file: python3 analyze.py flowData/path_to_file
3. ls flowData to see all configurations. E.g.: sv0-ps512 (Server node is node 0, Packet size is 512 byte => No RTS/CTS)
4. To analyze all XML file after running with 2..30 nodes: ./analyzeAll.sh configuration or bash analyzeAll.sh configuration (e.g.: ./analyzeAll.sh sv0-ps512)
5. After analyzing data is summarized automatically and saved at analyzedData/"configuration" and summarizedData/"configuration" (e.g.:analyzedData/sv0-ps512)

To summarize

1. cd into csma-ca-simulation: cd csma-ca-simulation
2. Run the summarize script to see loss flow ratio of each case: ./summarize.sh "configuration" or bash summarize.sh "configuration" (e.g: ./summarize.sh sv0-ps512)

To plot the summarized data

1. cd into csma-ca-simulation: cd csma-ca-simulation
2. Run the python script python3 plot.py path_to_summary_file (e.g: python3 plot.py summarizedData/sv0-ps512.csv)
