Published:22 March 2016Publication History

ABSTRACT

The first part of this paper presents a survey of the most famous outdoor propagation models suitable for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) for smart city applications. Then, we propose an intelligent method to associate these models with spatial zones according to the electromagnetic interactions. Finally, we present how to integrate this method in a WSN simulation platform called CupCarbon [1], and a methodology to associate these models.
