HTTP AND FTP STATISTICS FOR WIRELESS AND WIRE-LINE NETWORK WITH AND WITHOUT LOAD BALANCE BASED ON OPNET
Manju Sharma, Manoj Kumar, Ajay K. Sharma · 2009
This paper presents the modeling and implementation of Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) based on OPNET. Here OPNET is used to develop a new model suitable for campus/university environment. Our model was then evaluated to measure the performance of the wireless local area network for such campus/university environment. We tested our model against two types of applications (ftp and http) in four sites and found that among a set of other parameters response time and wireless media access delay were highly affected by the number of users per application with and without load balancing. OPNET simulation showed the impact of loan balancing on wireless and wire-line network for two different types of applications.
