Hi.<br><br>I am using OLSRD 0.5.6-r5-r10.5 for a robotics application. My problem is that when my robot rounds a corner I need to to switch much more quickly to a better node. The result using OLSRD unmodified is that I lose communications for 2 minutes and my robot sits there before the new node is switched to and I can communicate again.<br>
<br>The odd thing is that when I have several nodes all in sight of each other, the bot switches quite nicely (~5 seconds) between the closest one at the time. It is just when I round a corner (and completely lose communication with my current node) where I see the 2 minute switch over time.<br>
<br>I have messed around with the HelloInterval, the LinkQualityWinSize, and HelloValidityTime to where the switch over time is down to 30-45 seconds. Better, but still not nearly quick enough.<br><br>I have several questions. Can I tweak those parameters further to see better times? How small can I make my HelloInterval? Are there different parameters I should be changing? Does OLSRD always work off of packet loss? I need about a Mb of throughput for my application. Are there ways to tweak OLSRD to use throughput instead?<br>
<br>Thank you for any help/suggestions.<br><br>-Julie<br>
