• About: https://pro-panda.github.io/about/

TL;DR - Rahul works as a Software Engineer at Microsoft. He graduated from BITS Pilani, India in Dec 2019. His area of interest is Networks and Systems.

• Abstract: This project aims to develop models and evaluation programs related to routing in current community wireless networks. batman-adv for Freifunk.net is the initial target.

Project Overview

We meet Thursdays 3:30 PM GMT at https://meet.google.com/tam-izjx-wsg.

The tentative duration for this project is 3 4 months.

TODOs:

• Specs are outdated, contribute towards fixing them as gaps are found.
• Milestone 1:

---

15th June - 30th June:

This phase focused on understanding the batadv-protocol and ns-3 code structure.

• Read B.A.T.M.A.N. IETF draft - [1]
• Read Thesis on analysis and simulation of a Freifunk network using batadv - [2]
• Read documentation and specs - [3]. Understood that the IETF draft is highly outdated and should be ignored.
• Went through the ns-3 source code, the way models are designed, and how should the batman module be designed.
