In this section of my site I would like to keep track of my work related to network simulation, based upon the freely available open-source network simulator ns. This information is mainly for myself in order to note down steps or to archive neat tricks I needed or found (most probably after endless hours of browsing the web).

Modern UAVs fly autonomously. They have been doing this for quite a while now and still get better doing it every day. In order to bring these vehicles to a meaningfull use, research looks into what UAVs can do and how they could do it - enter communication and communication networks.
Network communication in these days most often means communication in wireless networks and in the context of UAVs mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) are quite useful. But in order to optimize available MANETs the underlying network has to be analyzed and simulated and this is the point where network simulations creep into aerospace engineering.
