How can notice which type of routing protocol used to implement a wireless sensor network with NS2 in an article when there is no mention of it in the paper?
With thanks for your attention Mr. Srikant Manas Kala
I tried to communicate with the authors but have not received any response from them. I know what protocols in ns2 available, but do not know which to choose so I could get the results in the paper
If it is not mention that means the proposed attack model is general and can be applied with most routing protocols. Normally the authors use the protocols who's source code is available as an example in simulators.
The best thing is to install the simulator NS and see the example WSN scenarios and available souse code.
If you are interested in WSN or BASN security i would suggest to install Castalia a module of OMNET++ that has routing protocols examples
You may have a look at my papers on RG profile related to security in MANET ans WSN.
I read the article again today with more accuracy and I saw in part of it was written about the network model : " In the network model, a WSN with N sensor nodes is considered, which can be denoted by a directed graph G = (V, E). In this graph, V is the set of vertices indicating the sensor nodes and E is the set of direct edges indicating the wireless links in the graph. The graph takes a Unit Disk Graph (UDG) as its connectivity model" .
Is this network model refers to the network protocol or is used on the network topology?
A UDG essentially means that each vertex represents the center of a unit disk/circle and two vertices can communicate when their "unit disks" overlap. A successful transmission would be between nodes that are upto 2 x Radius_disk (or diameter of disk) apart as in that scenario the two disks will share a tangent. These "wireless links" will be represented by an edge. The graph consists of these vertices and edges.
Look for MobilityHelper (we have that in ns-3) through which you can set the positions of nodes or allocate them randomly through UniformDiscPositionAllocator, and then use a constant position model if your network is static (ConstantPositionMobilityModel).
Hope this help. Google, you will find some scripts. Tailor them to suit your model.
This is an ns-3 script that uses a grid allocator. You can use the unit disk allocator instead by following the example.
Hope this helps.
For parameters and specifications, you may refer to my research work. I always include an elaborate table specifying network specs and simulation parameters.
my simulation language is Tcl. For this, Understanding the script you sent to me a little difficult for me but I would all their efforts to be able to use it.
