By
In this post, we are going to see how to install ns-3.36.1 in Ubuntu 22.04.

You can follow the video for complete details



Tools used in this simulation:
NS3 version ns-3.36.1 
OS Used: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Installation of NS3 (ns-3.36.1)
There are some changes in the ns3 installation procedure and the dependencies.

So open a terminal and issue the following commands

Step 1:  Prerequisites

$ sudo apt update


In the following packages, all the required dependencies are taken care and you can install all these packages for the complete use of ns3.

$ sudo apt install g++ python3 python3-dev pkg-config sqlite3 cmake python3-setuptools git qtbase5-dev qtchooser qt5-qmake qtbase5-dev-tools gir1.2-goocanvas-2.0 python3-gi python3-gi-cairo python3-pygraphviz gir1.2-gtk-3.0 ipython3 openmpi-bin openmpi-common openmpi-doc libopenmpi-dev autoconf cvs bzr unrar gsl-bin libgsl-dev libgslcblas0 wireshark tcpdump sqlite sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev  libxml2 libxml2-dev libc6-dev libc6-dev-i386 libclang-dev llvm-dev automake python3-pip libxml2 libxml2-dev libboost-all-dev 


Step 2 : Download ns-allinone-3.36.1.tar.bz2 from the website nsnam.org. 


Step 3 : Unzip the above file content to the home folder (in my case, its /home/pradeepkumar) - Check your home folder and do it accordingly. 
 To unzip use the GUI with Right click and extract and select the /home/pradeepkumar/ folder.
 
 else you can use the command 
 
 $ tar jxvf ns-allinone-3.36.1.tar.bz2 
 
Step 4: Go to the folder 
$ cd ns-allinone-3.36.1/ 

$ ./build.py --enable-examples --enable-tests
This process takes some time depends on the Speed of your system.

NS3 Installation
NS3 Installation
Once the installation is done. You can run the example as shown

$ cd ns-3.36.1/

$ ./ns3 run hello-simulator
Hello Simulator 

(You will get this output)

To run the examples, we need to copy the examples/tutorial/first.cc to the scratch folder and execute the file as shown below 

To run C++ (.cc) file, the following command is used.
$ ./ns3 run scratch/first 

To run the python file, here is the command

$ ./ns3 run scratch/first.py

Old system of using WAF is removed and ns3 is the new command....

Square and Sinusoidal Waveform in 8051 Microcontroller

By
Waveforms in 8051 Microcontroller Square Wave To create a square wave generation using Delay. let us say we want to construct a 1khz square waveform the processor instruction cycle of 8051 is 1.085microseconds so for 1khz (1milli seconds =1/1khz), is 1ms/1.085microseconds = 921.6 (this value is set to the for loop) #include <reg51.h> void delay() { int i=0; for(i=0;i<922;i++) } void main() { P0=0xff; delay(); P0=0x00; delay(); } Sine Wave generation Since sine wave is plotted in a digital device the number of samples determines the smoothness, hence in this case, more the samples, smoother is the waveform. so a lookup table is been created to get the samples. in the following examples, there are totally 36 samples are taken, starting from 0 degrees to 360 degrees with a step of 10 degrees Degrees A = 5 (1+Sin theta) Where 5 is the full scale voltage DAC = 25.6 * A 0 5 128 30 7.5 192 60 9.3 239 90 10 256 etc…like this we need to calculate for 13 samples  with a ste
