title: Experimentation Framework for Wireless Communication Systems under Jamming Scenarios Dataset

description: Data files were used in support of the research paper titled "“Experimentation Framework for Wireless<br> Communication Systems under Jamming Scenarios" which has been submitted to the IET Cyber-Physical Systems: Theory & Applications journal. Authors: Marko Jacovic, Michael J. Liston, Vasil Pano, Geoffrey Mainland, Kapil R. Dandekar<br> Contact: krd26@drexel.edu --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Top-level directories correspond to the case studies discussed in the paper. Each includes the sub-directories: logs, parsers, rayTracingEmulation, results. -------------------------------- logs: - data logs collected from devices under test<br> - 'defenseInfrastucture' contains console output from a WARP 802.11 reference design network. Filename structure follows '*x*dB_*y*.txt' in which *x* is the reactive jamming power level and *y* is the jaming duration in samples (100k samples = 1 ms). 'noJammer.txt' does not include the jammer and is a base-line case. 'outMedian.txt' contains the median statistics for log files collected prior to the inclusion of the calculation in the processing script. <br> - 'uavCommunication' contains MGEN logs at each receiver for cases using omni-directional and RALA antennas with a 10 dB constant jammer and without the jammer. Omni-directional folder contains multiple repeated experiments to provide reliable results during each calculation window. RALA directories use s*N* folders in which *N* represents each antenna state. <br> - 'vehicularTechnologies' contains MGEN logs at the car receiver for different scenarios. 'rxNj_5rep.drc' does not consider jammers present, 'rx33J_5rep.drc' introduces the periodic jammer, in 'rx33jSched_5rep.drc' the device under test uses time scheduling around the periodic jammer, in 'rx33JSchedRandom_5rep.drc' the same modified time schedule is used with a random jammer. -------------------------------- parsers: - scripts used to collect or process the log files used in the study<br> - 'defenseInfrastructure' contains the 'xputFiveNodes.py' script which is used to control and log the throughput of a 5-node WARP 802.11 reference design network. Log files are manually inspected to generate results (end of log file provides a summary). <br> - 'uavCommunication' contains a 'readMe.txt' file which describes the parsing of the MGEN logs using TRPR. TRPR must be installed to run the scripts and directory locations must be updated. <br> - 'vehicularTechnologies' contains the 'mgenParser.py' script and supporting 'bfb.json' configuration file which also require TRPR to be installed and directories to be updated. -------------------------------- rayTracingEmulation: - 'wirelessInsiteImages': images of model used in Wireless Insite<br> - 'channelSummary.pdf': summary of channel statistics from ray-tracing study<br> - 'rawScenario': scenario files resulting from code base directly from ray-tracing output based on configuration defined by '*WI.json' file <br> - 'processedScenario': pre-processed scenario file to be used by DYSE channel emulator based on configuration defined by '*DYSE.json' file, applies fixed attenuation measured externally by spectrum analyzer and additional transmit power per node if desired<br> - DYSE scenario file format: time stamp (milli seconds), receiver ID, transmitter ID, main path gain (dB), main path phase (radians), main path delay (micro seconds), Doppler shift (Hz), multipath 1 gain (dB), multipath 1 phase (radians), multipath 1 delay relative to main path delay (micro seconds), multipath 2 gain (dB), multipath 2 phase (radians), multipath 2 delay relative to main path delay (micro seconds)<br> - 'nodeMapping.txt': mapping of Wireless Insite transceivers to DYSE channel emulator physical connections required<br> - 'uavCommunication' directory additionally includes 'antennaPattern' which contains the RALA pattern data for the omni-directional mode ('omni.csv') and directional state ('90.csv') -------------------------------- results: - contains performance results used in paper based on parsing of aforementioned log files<br>
