SIMULATING SENSOR NETWORKS IN NS-2

Abstract—Optimizing sensor networks involves addressing a wide range of issues steaming from limited energy reserves, computation power, communication capabilities,and self-managing sensor nodes. The ns-2 simulation environment is a flexible tool for network engineers to investigate how various protocols perform with different configurations and topologies. This paper describes how we extended the ns-2 framework to include support for sensor networks, and illustrates their utility with an experiment examining Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) routing within a dynamic sensor network.

  1. hello sarala you have choosen a good seminar topic it consists of expanding the functionality of ns-2 environment to supoort sensor network.
    best of luck

  2. Hi,
    Please explain what are sensor networks in short and provide history of ns-2 (it might be earlier release of versions). Please provide the references and url's if possible
