<h1>Changes from ns-3.19 to ns-3.20</h1>
|
||||
<h2>New API:</h2>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li> Models have been added for low-rate, wireless personal area networks
|
||||
(LR-WPAN) as specified by IEEE standard 802.15.4 (2006). The current
|
||||
emphasis is on the unslotted mode of 802.15.4 operation for use in Zigbee,
|
||||
and the scope is limited to enabling a single mode (CSMA/CA) with basic
|
||||
data transfer capabilities. Association with PAN coordinators is not yet
|
||||
supported, nor the use of extended addressing. Interference is modeled as
|
||||
AWGN but this is currently not thoroughly tested. The NetDevice Tx queue
|
||||
is not limited, i.e., packets are never dropped due to queue becoming full.
|
||||
They may be dropped due to excessive transmission retries or channel access
|
||||
failure. </li>
|
||||
<li> A new IPv6 routing protocol has been added: RIPng. This protocol is
|
||||
an Interior Gateway Protocol and it is available in the Internet module. </li>
|
||||
<li> A new LTE MAC downlink scheduling algorithm named Channel and QoS
|
||||
Aware (CQA) Scheduler is provided by the new "ns3::CqaFfMacScheduler" object.
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li> Units may be attached to Time objects, to facilitate specific output
|
||||
formats (see Time::As()) </li>
|
||||
<li> FlowMonitor "SerializeToXml" functions are now directly available
|
||||
from the helper. </li>
|
||||
<li> Access to OLSR's HNA table has been enabled </li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Changes to existing API:</h2>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li> The SixLowPan model can now use uncompressed IPv6 headers. An option to
|
||||
define the minimum compressed packet size has been added. </li>
|
||||
<li> MinDistance wsa replaced by MinLoss in FriisPropagationLossModel, to
|
||||
better handle conditions outside of the assumed far field region. </li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Changes to build system:</h2>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li> Python 3.3 is now supported for Python bindings for ns-3. Python 3.3
|
||||
support for API scanning is not supported. Python 3.2 is not supported.</li>
|
||||
<li> Enable selection of high precision int64x64_t implementation
|
||||
at configure time, for debugging purposes.</li>
|
||||
<li> Optimized builds are now enabling signed overflow optimization
|
||||
(-fstrict-overflow) and for gcc 4.8.2 and greater, also warning for cases
|
||||
where an optimizization may occur due to compiler assumption that
|
||||
overflow will not occur. </li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Changed behavior:</h2>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li> The Internet FlowMonitor can now track IPv6 packets. </li>
|
||||
<li> Ipv6Extension::m_dropTrace has been removed. Ipv6L3Protocol::m_dropTrace
|
||||
is now fired when appropriate. </li>
|
||||
<li> IPv4 identification field value is now dependent on the protocol
|
||||
field. </li>
|
||||
<li> Point-to-point trace sources now contain PPP headers </li>
|
||||
</ul>
