It alerts readers to all the potential pitfalls that can occur in developing and implementing network M&S, offering a clear set of rules to streamline the entire process and ensure the validity of results. The book focuses on wireless network M&S; however, the authors' expert advice, based on their own firsthand experience and review of the current literature, is applicable to network M&S in general.An Introduction to Network Modeling and Simulation for the Practicing Engineer begins with a brief summary of the advantages and disadvantages of M&S as well as an overview of common M&S tools. Next, it explores the core components of wireless network M&S:. Radio frequency propagation M&S. Physical layer M&S. Medium access control M&S. Higher layer M&SAfter discussing each of these components, the authors explain how they can be integrated in order to perform M&S of a complete wireless networking system. Throughout the book, examples guide readers through each M&S task, with descriptive diagrams providing additional clarification.In many cases, M&S is the only viable way to understand the behavior of a proposed network prior to its deployment. Working with An Introduction to Network Modeling and Simulation for the Practicing Engineer, readers can ensure that their models and simulations are as accurate a reflection of reality as possible. 410 0$aComSoc guides to communications technologies ;$v5 606 $aCommunication and technology 606 $aSimulation methods 615 0$aCommunication and technology. 615 0$aSimulation methods. 676 $a620.00113 676 $a620.0042 700 $aBurbank$b Jack$0845888 701 $aWard$b Jon$0845889 701 $aKasch$b William$0845890 712 02$aIEEE Communications Society. 801 0$bCaBNVSL 801 1$bCaBNVSL 801 2$bCaBNVSL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996204095203316 996 $aAn introduction to network modeling and simulation for the practicing engineer$91888765 997 $aUNISA
