Utilizing EMANE in constructive testbed

[Nocsaron]

I am interesting in using EMANE to better model wireless communications in a constructive simulation testbed. Is it possible to "drive" the positions & send/receive messages via an external simulation?

Yes, your simulator can drive the emulator via the defined APIs.

1. Pathloss within the physical layer model is based on location or pathloss events. Pathloss is dynamically calculated based on location events when the propagationmodel configuration parameter is set to either 2ray or freespace , which selects between the 2-ray flat earth or freespace propagation models, respectively. https://github.com/adjacentlink/emane/wiki/Physical-Layer-Model

2. The application/emulation transport boundary is the emulation component responsible for delivering messages between an emulator instance and one or more application space processes. We call this component a transport. Transports provide the entry and exit point for emulator and application space messages. https://github.com/adjacentlink/emane/wiki/Introduction#applicationemulation-transport-boundary-processing

Thank you for the information! Is it possible to control EMANE's time via an event so I can run EMANE in a time-constrained environment (both much faster and significantly slower than real-time in the same scenario)

It is not.
