NS2 - A SIMULATION ENVIRONMENT FOR RESEARCH ON WIRELESS SENSOR NE-TWORKS

Abstract

Nowadays, with the growing interest in the Internet of Things, in most cases sensor network technology is used. The purpose of this article is to introduce the readers to the possibilities that provides the NS2 simulation environment for the study of wireless sensor networks. The article describes the network simulator NS2, characterized the most essential functions that it meets. In this article will be described a diagram of the WSN networks script, and how to correctly read the results obtained from the simulation.
