Simulation Model of Topology Generation in Hierarchical Distributed Ad Hoc Networks
Chang Tian · Acta Simulata Systematica Sinica · 2005
Topology generation model is a very important factor in Hierarchical Distributed ad hoc network simulation architecture. Due to the hierarchical network organization and group mobility, ad hoc network performance varied with the changes in network environment. We analyzed the deployment of the radio set in US army 21st century troops, and set up a simulation model of topology generation. Different topology patterns with same characteristics are generated, and there are significant difference in network performance between random deployed network and hierarchical distributed network. Simulation results show that, simulation model of topology generation is very suitable for hierarchical distributed ad hoc networks, and has same characteristics with real deployment of the 21st century troops.
