[Olsr-dev] neighbors throughput estimation

[Pasquale Imputato]

Hi all,

We are working on a project which has a goal to estimate the throughput
between a node and its neighbors in OLSR based networks.
We are considering to keep the measure procedures inside OONF in a new plug
in.
The idea could be to implement the measure procedures by using the RFC5444
messaging in a new plug in.
The sender part could be similar to the neighbor_probing plugin, to send
periodically a packets pair.
The receiver part could implement throughput estimation based on the
received packets pair.

What do you think about this approach to estimate the throughput in OONF?
The main questions are about 1. the validity of this approach (and by using
packets pair strategy) in OONF and 2. about the overhead of this approach
in the OONF framework.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,
