Predicting the Performance of Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using Scaled-Down Replicas

Overview Experimentation with mobile ad hoc network testbeds is preferred to simulations for performing high fidelity testing. But, at the same time, realistic experimentation with large-scale network testbeds is more difficult, time-consuming, and expensive. To side- step some of these problems several researchers, have recently suggested experimentation on scaled-down replicas and have managed to downscale some specific indoor network realizations with no mobility. However, the question of whether a scaled-down replica can reproduce the behavior of an arbitrary large-scale mobile ad hoc network, in a timely manner, and under realistic outdoor conditions, remains an interesting open problem.
