TestSimComm, 5/22/07 

This application tests the TOSSIM radio model by setting up a simple
hidden terminal case. It checks whether packets collide correctly and
whether SNR thresholds work correctly..

The relevant output channel is "TestComm".

There are three test cases:

test-equal.py: Tests whether two nodes that are hidden terminals
cause collisions. The two nodes have equal signal strengths, so a
collision should corrupt both packets. If one packet is lost due to
a collision, the other should be too. Note that packets can be 
lost in the absence of collisions due to external interference.

test-unequal.py: Tests whether two nodes that are hidden terminals
cause collisions. The two nodes have signal strengths that differ
by 10dB, and node 1 is stronger. This means that node 2 should hear
node 1's packets if they start first, but not second. If a packet
from node 1 is lost, the packet from node 3 should be as well. However,
a loss from node 3 does not imply a loss from node 1, as it is
stronger.

test-asym.py: Tests whether asymmetric links can have high delivery
rates but low acknowledgement rates. Checks that acknowledgements
follow SNR curves properly. In this test, both 1 and 3 have high
quality links (-60 dBm) to node 2, but the reverse links (2 to 1 and
2 to 3) are much worse (-80 dBm). You should see packet deliveries
like test-equal.py but few acknowledgements.
