EXPERIMENT 5

Title To setup & configuration of Wireless Access Point (AP) using NS3. Analyze the Wi-Fi
communication range in the presence of the access point (AP) and the base station
(BS). Consider BS and AP are static. Find out the maximum distance to which two
way communications is possible. Try multiple iterations by adjusting its distance in
the code and test it
Pre requisite Computer Networks-NS2

Mapping with CO CSL603.4

Objective To understand wireless communication
