| Abstract: | In this paper, Petri nets technique is introduced into mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) and a packet-flow parallel scheduling scheme is presented using Stochastic Petri Nets (SPN). The flowing of tokens is used in graphics mode to characterize dynamical features of sharing a single wireless channel. Through SPN reachability analysis and isomorphic continuous time Markov process equations, some network parameters, such as channel efficiency and, one-hop transmission delay, can be obtained. Compared with Those of The conventional performance evaluation methods, the above parameters are mathematical expressions instead of test results from simulator. |
