How to Calculate Throughput in Ns2
This article is about the depiction of calculating the throughput based on the Ns2 simulator. Let’s take a look over the overall process of calculation.
Step: 1 Script Code to Calculate Throughput in Ns2
Firstly, we have highlighted the awk script code to calculate the throughput in Ns2 based events in Ns2 trace files.
if (level == “RTR” && event == “r” && time >0 && $7 ==”AODV”) {
if (time > stopTime) { stopTime = time }
recvdSize++
thru=pkt_size/txsize
if(thru !=”inf” ){
printf(” %.2f %.2f \n” ,time,thru)
} }
Step: 2 Run Ns2 Main File
Then, we have to run the Ns2 main file and for that we have to change the Ns 2 main file location using the below mentioned commands.
cd /home/research/Desktop/ns2_simulation
sudo ./ns Main.tcl
As an additional note, we have highlighted result which is acquired through Ns2 simulation as per the main file execution.
Then, the result of graph generation based on auto generated file is stored with the file extension .tr through the utilization of Xgraph tool for the average throughput calculation based on number of nodes.
Hopefully, we have come up with the most wanted process to calculate the throughput in Ns2. What else? Just begin to implement by your own and hit us through various platforms if assistance required.
