DESERT Underwater: an NS-Miracle extension to DEsign, Simulate, Emulate and Realize Test-beds for Underwater network protocols

DESERT Underwater is a complete set of public C++ libraries that extend the NS-Miracle simulator to support the design and implementation of underwater network protocols. Its creation stems from the will to push the studies on underwater networking beyond simulations. Implementing research solutions on actual devices, in fact, is of key importance to realize a communication and networking architecture that allows heterogeneous nodes to communicate reliably in the underwater environment.

Samples

You can find a lot of samples at

DESERT_Underwater/DESERT/samples

along with some guides on how to use them.

Basic structure

The basic structure of DESERT adheres to the ISO/OSI communication protocol stack: this allows for ease of development and integration. A set of packers allows DESERT to also be connected to real devices, thus using the same code in both simulation and a real sea experiment.
