3 doc.: IEEE 802.11-06/0916r1 SubmissionSlide 3 Ad Hoc Networks Platform Consortium Japanese industries, academia and government have been active in research and development toward the ubiquitous society and have cooperatively developed advanced concepts and technologies including IPv6, TRON OS, RFID, etc. The need of active collaboration of industries, academia and government in the area of ad hoc networks has been recognized recently. The Ad Hoc Networks Platform Consortium was started December 2003 in Japan, aiming at promoting research and development collaboration and standardization in the area of ad hoc networks. Currently, 14 enterprises, 15 universities and a government laboratory have joined the consortium.

4 doc.: IEEE 802.11-06/0916r1 SubmissionSlide 4 A Large-Scale Ad Hoc Network Testbed In early 2004, the research project entitled the next generation ad hoc network base technologies, led by Niigata University in cooperation with ATR, Hitachi and Oki, was formed in the Consortium. This project has been funded by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) since July 2004. In this project, Niigata University has built a large-scale ad hoc network testbed in Niigata University campus area in November 2004.

20 doc.: IEEE 802.11-06/0916r1 SubmissionSlide 20 Results (Throughput & RTT between MSs) Fig1. Throughput against hop count along the backbone Fig2. RTT against hop count along the backbone There is no line-of-sight between AP2 and AP3. The effect of fading in the experimental environment causes the reduction of the throughput between AP2 and AP3. But this test-bed achieved more 2Mbps throughput in the case that the communication hops three times in MANET.
