| Summary: | This article aims to share how to create a minimum MANET testbed
facility as a requirement for evaluation of MANET research. Testbed facility
that we have developed is called as Testbed on MANET or abbreviation ToM.
We chose to use single board computer (SBC) to represent mobile devices in
MANET. ToM facility and can be used either in a static mesh network or in a
dynamic network topology, where each node in the testbed can move according
to the needs of the researcher. To realize a real world node mobility in ToM, we
use mobile robot technology and mobile robot that we have develop, where we
named it as ToMRobot. Our experience in developing a ToM facility proves that
with today’s technological developments, the private MANET testbed facility
can be developed more easily at low cost.
