Abstract

This paper presents a novel approach to a low-resolution modeling of wireless networks in ns-3. This model relies on automatic neighbor estimation based on current channel conditions. This estimation constructs a basis for automatic collision avoidance among interference neighbors at MAC layer and for a global topology construction using communication neighbors of each station. There are several veri- cation examples that show an ability of a spatial reuse of the allocated bandwidth. A case study example shows the intended use of this model.
