Cognitive Radio Network Simulator

sirajl · 11-30-2011, 08:42 AM

Hi,

I am using the following add-on with ns2 2.31 to be able to simulate cognitive radio networks.
http://www.ece.mtu.edu/~ljialian/. I installed this on ubuntu 11.04. I am unable to make install,make depend or make after following the instructions. If anybody has installed may i know which linux version should i go.Or anybody has implemented on ns 2.34 . Any help will be highly appreciated.
Many many thanks.

Ubuntu 11.04 is not fit for ns2.
( Ubuntu 11.10 is even worse.)

Ubuntu 10.04 will do, if you prefer Ubuntu.
( All ns2 was created and tested on CentOS / RHEL :
The perfect choice is CentOS 5.7 ).

Thanks you so much. Highly obliged.

I installed it on Ubuntu 10.04 and exactly followed the instruction.
when i do make depend it gives me

/bin/sh: Syntax error: Bad fd number
make: *** [depend] Error 2

I am a novice in Linux. Please help.

Thanks

#4.
1) cd ns-allinone-2.31/ && export CC=gcc-4.1 CXX=g++-4.1 && ./install
1a) cd ns-2.31/ && mv ns ns231 : Probably required for non crcn files.

2) The further instructions (for CRCN) are described here, #9

Not important. Just type make, and the "ns-crcn" binary is created.
( cp ns ns-crcn : Then you have a named backup.)

EDIT : More about "make depend", see post #6, etc. etc.

I have been able to run CRCN patch on ubuntu 10.04 with ns2.31

As for the emake depend error the solution is to add in Makefile

SHELL=/bin/bash.

Thank you so much knudfl. May God bless you.

I have the same error when doing Make depend

I am using Ubuntu 10.04 with ns 2.31
I have added the lines in post #6 to the top of Makefile, but still have the same problem.
I am a bit new to linux and ns, so perhaps I am doing something wrong, can you help me to figure the problem ?

Thanks

Post #7, @ tornado90 : Welcome to LQ.

The 'make depend' command is not that important, as the application
already was installed previously.

The 'make' command will do, as originally described in post #5.

make sure you have makedepend and thus need

sudo apt-get install imake

tornado90 · 01-04-2012, 01:42 AM

@sirajl: I did the command you wrote, but the error still exist

So I made as knudfl said and jumped to make, and seems that it is working

Thanks a lot Knudfl & Sirajl

I am happy tornado90 that you are able to solve the problem

tornado90 · 01-05-2012, 04:55 AM

Thanks

Can I ask you for one more thing?

Now the program is working with me, but I want to understand the output graphs,
I am very new to ns2, so I can't figure out what is the model he is working on,
I have looked at the tutorial on http://stuweb.ee.mtu.edu/~ljialian/index.htm
but still can't figure out his model.
I am working with the GUI but I don't feel that the parameters that I am
putting, gives me the whole picture of the model

So can you please tell me about it, or how to find and understand it.

Thanks a lot

tornado90 · 01-08-2012, 08:31 AM

Hey Guys, can anybody help me to understand the graphs from the simulator ?
I just want someone to tell me what is the model, or how to understand it
