Abstract This paper presents the open Wireless Network Simulator (openWNS). This simulation tool was developed in the last 5 years at the department of Communication Networks (ComNets) at RWTH Aachen University and has been released as open source software recently. openWNS is a dynamic event driven system level simulation platform that allows for investigation of dynamic protocol behaviour in multi-cellular scenarios with detailed interference modeling. The simulation platform follows a modular design down to protocol building blocks, which makes it possible to rapidly modify the implemented protocol stacks. openWNS currently includes models from physical to application layer. The protocol modules for IEEE 802.16m and IEEE 802.11n-draft are probably the most interesting for the wireless research community.
