Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are nowadays the base of many Internet of Things (IoT) applications. One critical issue in developing WSNs related applications and protocols is how to measure the Energy consumption, which is very important for estimating the network lifetime. TOSSIM simulator is one of the most popular simulators for developing and testing WSN protocols and applications. However, it does not support energy measurements, which was tackled by an extension tool called POWERTOSSIM. This tool works separately from TOSSIM where it uses the simulation's output file at the end of the simulation to generate energy measurements. Therefore, TOSSIM and POWERTOSSIM do not support developing energy-aware protocols and applications for WSN, because this type of development needs online energy measurements, while the simulation is running. In this paper, we tackle this drawback by developing an Online Energy Model and integrate it with TOSSIM simulator. The proposed model is verified by comparing its results with the results generated by POWERTOSSIMZ.

用于无线传感器网络的在线功率转换模拟器

无线传感器网络(wsn)是当今许多物联网(IoT)应用的基础。在开发无线传感器网络相关的应用和协议时，一个关键问题是如何测量能量消耗，这对估计网络的生命周期非常重要。TOSSIM模拟器是开发和测试无线传感器网络协议和应用程序的最流行的模拟器之一。然而，它不支持能量测量，这是由一个名为POWERTOSSIM的扩展工具解决的。该工具独立于TOSSIM，在TOSSIM中，它在模拟结束时使用模拟的输出文件来生成能量测量值。因此，TOSSIM和POWERTOSSIM不支持为WSN开发能量感知协议和应用程序，因为这种类型的开发需要在线能量测量，而仿真正在运行。在本文中，我们通过开发在线能源模型并将其与TOSSIM模拟器集成来解决这一缺点。通过与POWERTOSSIMZ生成的结果进行比较，验证了所提模型的正确性。
