Abstract
A modeling and simulation method for wireless sensor network (WSN) using discrete event system specification (DEVS) is proposed in this paper considering that the existing simulators cannot fully satisfy the requirements of WSN simulation. The method is for multi-layer and multi-aspect modeling which contains the component layer in sensor nodes, the sensor node layer, the wireless sensor net-work layer and the external environment where a WSN is exposed, and modules in lower layer are integrated into superior models through coupling relation and model reuse. Minimum Hop Count (MHC) protocol is chosen as the routing protocol of the WSN in the simulation experiment. It is finally demonstrated through the performance analysis of WSN using MHC that the proposed DEVS-based modeling and simulation method is feasible for WSN simulation.
