Experimental Evaluation of Ad Hoc Testbed in Indoor Scenarios

To date, indoor applications are becoming more and more important for ad hoc networks. However, indoor scenarios pose new challenges for ad hoc networks. In this paper, we verify the problem of best offered load in chain topology and experimentally evaluate the local repair function. Our observation indicates that unidirectional links and unstable links are two cutthroats of ad hoc networks in indoor scenarios. This paper aims to aid researchers in refining and developing on-demand ad hoc routing protocols to cope with challenges from indoor scenarios
