Abstract

Network virtualization tools can be used to create several experiments like distributed systems evaluation and validation, test new software configuration in a virtual production environment or educational research. Although many tools enable a user to execute such experiments, few have mobile network support, presenting only wired network. The current project aims to present a proposal to modify a open source virtual network emulator called Netkit, enabling mobile network experimentation. The modified tool is capable to create virtual devices that can be located in a virtual space and moved along it, providing signal intensity variation, handovers, and able to address experimentation scenarios that requires spatial and geodesic location of the virtual mobile devices.
