Interface and results visualization of WMN-GA simulation system: Evaluation for Exponential and Weibull distributions considering different transmission rates

In this paper, we present the interface and data visualization of a simulation system for Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs), which is based on Genetic Algorithms (GAs). We call this system WMN-GA. As evaluation parameters, we consider Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), throughput and delay metrics. For simula...

Summary:In this paper, we present the interface and data visualization of a simulation system for Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs), which is based on Genetic Algorithms (GAs). We call this system WMN-GA. As evaluation parameters, we consider Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), throughput and delay metrics. For simulations, we used ns-3 simulator and Hybrid Wireless Mesh Protocol (HWMP). From simulation results, we found that PDR for Weibull distribution is higher than Exponential distribution. But, the throughput of Exponential distribution is higher than Weibull distribution. The delay of Exponential distribution is smaller than Weibull distribution.
