After a decade of research in the field of wireless sensor networks (WSNs)
there are still open issues. WSNs impose several severe requirements regarding
energy consumption, processing capabilities, mobility, and robustness of
wireless transmissions. Simulation has shown to be the most cost-efficient
approach for evaluation of WSNs, thus a number o...

... overall simulation environment setup is shown in Fig. 1 which builds up on the discrete event simulator OMNeT++ [3]. As STEAM-Sim already uses hardware models developed in PAWiS, in this work we concentrate more on the discussion of the integration of the MiXiM and the PAWiS framework. As an outcome, it is possible to establish a simulation which provides accurate timing of hardware and ...

We present a wireless sensor network, deployed and tested for real aircraft applications. By employing IEEE
802.15.4-2011 UWB compliant transceivers, with a time slotted channel access protocol, characteristics of indoor propagation are studied. A test setup in an aircraft’s empty passenger cabin is presented and wireless channel features are analy...
In most of the real-life application scenarios, where Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are deployed, the energy is a limited and valuable resource. Many energy-based strategies
were proposed in the literature to reduce the power consumption of sensor nodes and thus enhance the network lifetime. When those algorithms are developed and tested with som...
