Developing a controlling application of wireless sensor networks simulation

Abstract

Many wireless sensor network applications must resolve the inherent conflict between energy efficient and nodes of coverage in wireless sensor networks to achieve desired quality of service (QoS). The wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been the main focus in the past few years, and it is becoming a special issue. We study the problem of controlling the node locations and energy within ad-hoc sensor networks. Network survivability is a very important measure for deciding the efficiency of network protocols. It includes a measure of the network lifetime as well as the quality of service. In fact, these dynamics are very important in evaluating networks. The wireless network applications can be found in battlefield communication, homeland security, pollution sensing and traffic monitoring. As such, there has been an increasing need for defining and developing simulation frameworks for carrying out high-fidelity WSN simulation. In this cause, we present a simulation by including factors such as energy-consumption, Bandwidth, nodes, and coverage and provides an object-oriented definition of target, sensor and sink nodes, sensor and wireless communication nodes, and physical radio such as relating of nodes, mobility model and power model both energy-producing and energy-consuming components, the simulation was developed using C#.
