XIAN Description

XIAN (a cross-layer Interface for wireless ad-hoc networks) is a generic interface for experimenting cross-layer. XIAN (a cross-layer Interface for wireless ad-hoc networks) is a generic interface for experimenting cross-layer designs with legacy 802.11 networking cards using the MadWifi driver on Linux platforms.It can be used as a service by other network layers or system components to access information about the configuration and performance of MAC/PHY layers. The interface is fully implemented and is available for Linux over the MadWifi 802.11 driver.What's New in This Release:· Mechanisms enabling bidirectional exchanges of metrics between neighbouring nodes were implemented.· A code example implementing the ETX metric "Expected Transmission Count" was added.· The neighboring module was implemented, maintaining an updated table of the active neighbors by triggering updates necessary to automate XIAN Nano-protocol message exchanges.
