[ns] Ack Loss

[Mohammad Zubair Ahmad]

ACK packets may certainly be lost too, specially in MANETs. The most common occurrence is when ACK packets collide with the RTS packets from masked/deaf nodes in a highly dynamic scenario. Close to 15% of total collisions in a 802.11 network are ACK packet collisions.
