neighbor discovery in wireless simulation

Hello dear reseachers
I'm a newbie in NS and i'm implementing a routing agent with wireless node.
I've a question about how to recognize neighbor. there's a Phy/WirelessPhy set Pt_ value that can be set to have a special range,so we have those neighbor,but choosing the right value is not easy,also there's a radius field for each mobile node that can be set.it's written that neighbor inside these range will be recognized as neighbor. as i could undrestand i should get the position of nodes and then calculate distance of each node to neighboring node,then use radius field to filter other nodes from my neighborhood. is it right? isn't it too timeconsuming? how may i know how much it effect performance of my work if any? and then what's the right way to recognize neighbors in wireless simulation?

thx in advance

Hi Hamideh

Neighbour Discovery in NS-2 is easy. You may have these options:

1. Use Hello Packets for neighbor discovery.
2. Use Communication range for neighbour discovery.
3. Use Nodes Positions for neighbor discovery.

So, it totally depends upon you, how you discover your neighbours.

Thanks
