HOW TO IMPORT ALOHA FRAMEWORK PACKAGES IN Omnet++

To Import Aloha Framework Packages in Omnet++ , we will explain about the ALOHA Framework as it is an innovative and straightforward network protocol designed for wireless communication, first created at the University of Hawaii during the 1970s. It operates as a random-access protocol, enabling multiple devices to send data over a common communication channel without the need for prior coordination. In this system, each device transmits data whenever it has something to share. However, if two devices happen to send data simultaneously, a collision occurs, resulting in lost information. The devices then pause for a random period before trying to send their data again. While this approach is uncomplicated, it can become less effective as network traffic rises, leading to an increase in collision occurrences.

Notify the steps that are required for the installation of ALOHA Framework.
