Work Involved

Mainly involved for developing a mobility model for fishing vessels and implementing network level simulation for the proposed architecture in MICRONet

Detailed achievements:

• Requirement definition for MICRONet

1. 1. Interview with fisherman and boat owners(Kollam)
   2. Discussion with Indian Navy, Cochin
   3. Survey on state of the art solutions

• Development of mobility model for fishing vessel

1. 1. Collection and analysis of real time GPS data from the fishing ves-sels
   2. Formulation of mobility model

•  Survey of existing mobility models
•  Dividing the real data into 7 phases and modelling those phases with exisiting or with newly developed models

• Familiarization with ns-3 platform for network simulation
