Linktest

Link test for running on FlockLab 2. Two modes are supported:

• point-to-point (measures packet reception ratio (PRR), RSSI, and CRC errors)
• flooding

How to Use

Initial Checkout and Compile of the Project

• See instructions for flora apps

Running a Test

1. Set the configuration parameters in app_config.h:
   • Choose the mode for the link test, i.e. set exactly one of the two defines to 1:
     TESTCONFIG_P2P_MODE, TESTCONFIG_FLOOD_MODE
   • For point-to-point link tests: set all TESTCONFIG_xxx and RADIOCONFIG_xxx defines
   • For flooding link tests: set all TESTCONFIG_xxx and FLOODCONFIG_xxx defines
2. Build the project using the IDE
3. Run ./Scripts/run_linktest.py
   (requires the flocklab-tools and GitPython python packages)

Evaluation of a Test

1. Run eval script: ./Scripts/eval_linktest.py [testno]
   (Results are then available as generated .html and .pkl files in ./data/.)
