Abstract
Network simulation of MANETs has substantial benefits for planning, engineering and research for military networks. Achieving high fidelity in network models, complex radio systems, and RF propagation effects results in significant computational loads for even moderately sized networks. Network simulators capable of performance and scalability for MANETs are highly valuable. In this paper, we share results of performance and scalability tests of the ns-3 network simulator in representative scenarios using ns-3 on the supercomputing platforms at the US Army Research Laboratory.
