A Study on Energy Model Prototyping in Various Simulators of WSN

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 2

Abstract

Simulators are used to abstract the real hardware behaviors and proceed the research more economically. Various simulators of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) are used to access the performance and transmission processes involved in WSN. Each of the simulators has its own model to support the protocol stacks of physical layer and data layer, routing algorithms, topology control. This decade issue of Energy Engineering in WSN is getting the growing attention now days. This paper is to study and compare the various Energy Model support in the simulators of WSN with the following details of features, configuration setup, data structures, result traces, monitor outputs, debugging facilities, libraries and utilities and GUI support to explain the usage. Wide range of simulators is considered for the study; the classification of simulators with the key features is briefed with their model architectures. This paper will be the unique guide for any researcher who works on the energy relevant studies in WSN field to choose the proper tool and learn its usage and architecture with minimal learning curve.
