NS3 Mobility models in WSN

Question

In ns-3, how can I move a node to specific points using mobilitymodel. I want to make a list, containing pre-defined positions/points, and move node to every point, and pause at every point, for example 1 second. Furthermore, I don't know how to make the node move to those points.

Answer 1

First, you need to check the examples under /src/mobility/examples/. Then, try ns2-mobility-trace.cc file for understanding, which uses a pre-defined node trajectory, which is generated with ns2. Then. you can use tools, such as bonnmotion, SUMO, or ns-2 setdest utility, to create a mobility file of your choice with pre-defined positions/trajectory of the device. Then, you can easily integrate your mobility files, see another example here mobility examples.
