Ns-2 is a discrete event simulator targeted at networking research.
802.11 Support
The existing 802.11 support in ns-2 is disapointing for a number of reasons.
Extensions
Fork by Mathieu Lacage
A new 802.11 module based on a fork of ns-2 around mid-september 2005. Latest release was released in September 2005.
Improvements
- ET/SNRT/BER-based PHY models
- 802.11a multirate
- 802.11e HCCA and EDCA

IEEE 802.11e EDCA and CFB Simulation Model for ns-2
Link: http://www.tkn.tu-berlin.de/research/802.11e_ns2/
Removed bugs:
- introduces seperate SIFS timer, such that different timers for
deferal (DIFS) and inter-packet times are semantically different,
- stops deferal whenever the medium becomes busy,
- proper computation of NAV,
- proper setting / resetting of NAV.
