BitRateSelection: Integration into JiST
Motivation of work
Bit rate selection in Wireless Network is still a relatively new research topic. The inherent support of data transmission at different bitrates within the 802.11 MAC layer motivates exploitation of this feature. Previous work has come up with several interesting bit-rate selection algorithms. However, implementation of these inside widely-used network simulators (such as ns-2 and JiST/SWANS) has been sparse.
The current project is dedicated to add support of several bitrates into the JiST/SWANS simulation environment and implementing on top of it several bit-rate selection algorithms. There are three steps in this project, which are listed chronologically:

Future: BER
radio model has to be adapted to bit rates (dB values)
