11e的草案 相信对相关研究人员很有用 如果你在这里搜到了

Note:
*****

The model lacks the HCCA, any management
mechanisms like Association/Reassociation, Authentication /
Deauthentication. In addition, no superframe structure with Beacon
frames and no power-saving methods are supported (as in the original
ns-2 model).

The RTS/CTS mechanism, which is included in the legacy ns-802.11
model, has never been tested and verified. Therefore we do not
recommend to use RTS/CTS without reviewing the code in detail.

This model only works with ns-2.28. Several changes might be needed to
use it in combination with other ns versions.

Installation of MAC 802.11e EDCA-Code:
**************************************

1. please change into the directory ns-whatever/ns-x.y/mac/

2. copy the tgz file into this directory and extract it with:
     tar -xvzf filename.tgz 	

3. changes to your Makefile.in in ns-whatever/ns-x.y/:
   - add to INCLUDES: 
               	-I./mac/802_11e
   - add to OBJ_CC:   
               	mac/802_11e/mac-802_11e.o mac/802_11e/priq.o 
               	mac/802_11e/d-tail.o mac/802_11e/mac-timers_802_11e.o	 
   - exclude in NS_TCL_LIB:
               	tcl/lib/ns-mobilenode.tcl \	       
   - add to NS_TCL_LIB:
               	mac/802_11e/ns-mobilenode_EDCA.tcl \
	       	mac/802_11e/priority.tcl \

4. changes to your ns-whatever/ns-x.y/tcl/lib/ns-lib.tcl:
   - exclude from the source list:
	       	source ns-mobilenode.tcl
   - add to the source list: 
               	source ../../mac/802_11e/ns-mobilenode_EDCA.tcl
               	source ../../mac/802_11e/priority.tcl

5. changes to your ns-whatever/ns-x.y/tcl/lib/ns-default.tcl:
   - add:
               	Queue/DTail set drop_front_ false
               	Queue/DTail set summarystats_ false
               	Queue/DTail set queue_in_bytes_ false
               	Queue/DTail set mean_pktsize_ 500
	       	Queue/DTail/PriQ set Prefer_Routing_Protocols    1
               	Queue/DTail/PriQ set Max_Levels   4 
               	Queue/DTail/PriQ set Levels    4
		
		Mac/802_11e set SlotTime_      0.000020    ;# 20us
		Mac/802_11e set SIFS_          0.000010    ;# 10us
	        Mac/802_11e set PreambleLength_        144 ;# 144 bit
		Mac/802_11e set PLCPHeaderLength_      48  ;# 48 bits
		Mac/802_11e set PLCPDataRate_  1.0e6       ;# 1Mbps	       

		Mac/802_11e set RTSThreshold_  3000        ;# bytes
 		Mac/802_11e set ShortRetryLimit_       7   ;# retransmittions
		Mac/802_11e set LongRetryLimit_        4   ;# retransmissions

6.  add to tcl/lan/ns-mac.tcl:
               if [TclObject is-class Mac/802_11e] {
                 ...
	         copy settings of MAC/802.11 
		 (which are contained in this file) into this section
                 and at an "e" at the end of the "Mac/802_11" terms
		 ...
	         Mac/802_11e set cfb_ 0 ;# disables CFB
	       }

7. mac/wireless-phy.h: 
  	change  
		enum ChannelStatus {IDLE, RECV, SEND};
	to
		enum ChannelStatus {IDLE, RECVING, SENDING};
   mac/wireless-phy.cc:
	replace all occurences of RECV and SEND (by RECVING and SENDING).

8. common/packet.h:
	add
		#define HDR_MAC802_11E(p) ((hdr_mac802_11e *)hdr_mac::access(p))

9. run ./configure; make clean; make depend; make in your ns directory

10. happy simulating :o) (e.g with the example script ../ns-x/mac/802.11e/multi_udpflows.tcl) 


Simulations with 802.11e EDCA
*****************************

- in your simulation script: After defining your transport_agent
  % set transport_agent [new Agent/UDP]
  ,just add 
  % $your_transport_agent prio_ x 
  to give a certain flow a specific priority
  (x between 0 and 3, 0 being the highest, 3 being the lowest priority).

- changes to 802.11e parameters (CW_MIN, CW_MAX, AIFS, TXOPLimit, PF) should be
  made in ../ns-x/mac/802_11e/priority.tcl for each queue. Please rerun make afterwards.

- please set Mac/802_11e cfb_ to 1 (in tcl/lan/ns-mac.tcl) if you want to enable CFB in 
  your simulations. Rerun make afterwards.
