I want to create a packet with additional data and then sending it using an on/off application in ns-3. I saw that I can only precise the size of packets and the rate. Can you please tell me how can I send a particular packet?
Thank you in advance.

I'm trying to implement the UPLINK of a Ground Station controlling a small satellite. The idea is that the link should stay always active in between each transmitted telecommand. For this, I need to insert some DUMMY or IDLE sequence bytes such as 0xAA or similar.
I have found that some people already faced a similar issue and posted their questions here:
https://www.ruby-forum.com/t/constant-carrier-digital-transmission/163379
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/discuss-gnuradio/2016-08/msg00148.html
So far, the best I could achieve was to modify the EventStream Source block from https://github.com/osh/gr-eventstream in order to preload the vectors with my dummy sequence (i.e. 0xAA) instead of preloading them with zeroes. This is a general overview of the GNURadio graph I'm using:
GNURadio Flowgraph Picture
This solution however introduces a huge latency and the sent message does not appear at the output until a huge amount of time has expired (in the order of several seconds).
Is there a way of programming the USRP using GNURadio so that it constantly sends a fixed sequence which should only be interrupted when an incoming message is passed? I assume that the USRP has the ability of reading tagged streams in order to schedule transmissions. However, I'm not sure how to fit this in my specific application.
Thanks beforehand!

I believe this could be done using a TCP or UDP source block.
Your control information could be sent to the socket using TCP/UDP. GNU Radio would then collect and transmit the packets. Your master control program would then have to handle the IDLE stuffing but solving the problem external to GNU Radio is easier.
Your master control program would basically do the following:
1. tx control data as needed
2. if no control data ready before next packet must be sent send an IDLE packet
I am currently working on an application to change my RGBWW light strips by a Java application.
Information has to be sent via UDP packages in order to be understood by the controller.
Unfortunately, the hex number 0x80 has to be sent - which is causing some problems.
Whenever I send a byte array containing only numbers fron 0x00 to 0x79 (using DataPacket and a DataSocket), I do get an UDP Package popping up on my network monitor.
As soon as I include the number 0x80 or any other higher, I see two things Happen:
1: I do not longer get only UDP protocols, but messages are displayed as RTP / RTCP most of the time
2: The method Integer.hexToString() does not display "80", but gives me a "ffffff80".
My question: Is there something I am missing when it comes to sending hex info by UDP? Or is there another way of sending it, possibly avoiding the annoyingly signed bytes?
I unfortunately did not find any information that would have significantly helped me on that issue, but I hope you can help me!
Thanks in advance!
I'm a newbie with RRTCC and I really dont understand how RRTCC adjusts incoming media bitrate.
I tried to read Internet Draft of RRTCC but cannot figure it out: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-alvestrand-rmcat-congestion-03
It calculates the estimated bandwidth based on delay and loss, so what's next?
How it can directly control the sending rate to control congestion?
The RTP receiver doesn't directly control the sending rate. It just sends status information to the RTP sender, which is the only one capable of controlling its own sending rate.
draft-alvestrand-rmcat-congestion has been replaced by draft-ietf-rmcat-gcc so I recommend that you use the later one.
In section 2. System model it explains that the RTP receiver should also act as a RTCP sender, in order to send REMB messages to the RTP sender. These messages should be sent by the RTP receiver as soon as it detects any congestion, and then keep sending it at a rate of once per second even if no congestion is happening. Then the RTP sender uses the information in the received message to decide if the transmission bitrate can be raised or should be immediately lowered.
I am one of the authors of the draft. If you are interested in understanding the design criteria you can also take a look at this paper:

Hi I am writing a program that will send a file from client to server using UDP socket using different packet sizes for example 512B, 1KB and 2KB and i don't want use fixed buffer size in the receiver(server).I need some codes in Java that will allow both server and client to agree upon a packet size before transfer start. Many thanks
Don't you forget that UDP packets may be fragmented, duplicated and lost? There is a whole bunch of things to take care of, starting with lost packet retransmissions.
I hate to give a "don't do this" kind of answers, but for this one, just use TCP. And if you want some user-level "packets", you can have them with TCP also (prefix each one with its length, that's enough).
I am building an Arduino-based device that needs to send data over the internet to a remote server. It needs to do this as frequently as possible but also use as little bandwidth as possible. It will probably work over GSM/EDGE (cellular networking).
The data I'd like to send is about 40 bytes in size - really minimal. I'd like to send this packet to the server about once a minute, but also receive a packet of around that size in response once in a while.
The bandwidth on my server is no problem - the bandwidth on the device's internet connection is, i.e. the cellular data.
Do headers on mobile requests and responses count as part of the bandwidth?
Yes, the total packet size is all data that is sent. Assuming a TCP packet you lose 20 bytes right from the start. If you get intimate with Wireshark you can see exactly what's happening.
