Performance Evaluations in Optical and Wireless Networks for CONDOR project

Wireless and optical networks are widely used nowadays. These networks offer a high throughput thanks to their optical link and allow the development of multiuser applications. Because the network performance is an important issue to provide services to a great number of users while assuring users’ quality of service requirements, CONDOR (CONtribution a la Diffusion de l’histOiRe du traitement de l’information a l’aide du reseau de demain) project aims to evaluate the wireless and optical networks’ performances in terms of link quality, throughput, jitter and delay. Our results show that a high throughput in optical and wireless networks supports a big load through the launched mobile applications while P2P wireless network connections upset some video applications.
