Abstract

In this paper, we present an architecture to emulate multi-hop wireless networks on StarBED, a wired-network testbed at Hokuriku Research Center of NICT, Japan. The architecture uses a distributed approach, and it can effectively emulate in real time the properties of WLAN contention-based media access mechanism.
