    hello Sir,
    I am new to NS3 version 3.31 for 3 months I have not progressed,
    I am working on the implementation of a timeslot based
    multi-channel RFID reader centralized anti-collision protocol,
    at the beginning there is a contention to choose a channel
    communication among the four that exist. I had an RFID plugin
    which I added in my working directory. my problem now is where
    I started to implement my algorithm
    please help me move forward.

    whatever I do, still getting the same response Waf: Leaving directory `/home/adnan/ns-allinone-3.31/ns-3.31/build'
    Build failed
    -> task in 'pybindgen(ns3 module antenna)' failed with exit status 1 (run with -v to display more information)
