// This example shows how to configure mixed networks (i.e. mixed b/g and HT/non-HT) and how are performance in several scenarios.
//
// The example compares first g only and mixed b/g cases with various configurations depending on the following parameters:
// - protection mode that is configured on the AP;
// - whether short PLCP is supported by the 802.11b station;
// - whether short slot time is supported by both the 802.11g station and the AP.
//
// The example then compares HT only and mixed HT/non-HT cases with various configurations depending on the following parameters:
// - whether HT GF is supported by the AP;
// - whether HT GF is supported by all HT stations;
// - whether RIFS is enabled on HT stations;
// - RIFS mode that is configured on the AP.
//
// The output results show that the presence of an 802.11b station strongly affects 802.11g performance.
// Protection mechanisms ensure that the NAV value of 802.11b stations is set correctly in case of 802.11g transmissions.
// In practice, those protection mechanism add a lot of overhead, resulting in reduced performance. CTS-To-Self introduces
// less overhead than Rts-Cts, but is not heard by hidden stations (and is thus generally only recommended as a protection
// mechanism for access points). Since short slot time is disabled once an 802.11b station enters the network, benefits from
// short slot time are only observed in a g only configuration.
//
// HT and mixed-HT results show that HT GF permits to slightly increase performance when all HT stations support GF mode, and RIFS also permits
// such a small improvement when no non-HT station is present. In order to show the benefit offered by RIFS, aggregation has been disabled and
// Block ACK together with a TXOP duration of 3008 microseconds have been set.
//
// The user can also select the payload size and can choose either an UDP or a TCP connection.
// Example: ./waf --run "mixed-network --isUdp=1"
