COSMO: CO-Simulation with MATLAB and OMNeT++ for indoor wireless networks

Zhang, Zhi LU ; Lu, Zhonghai ; Chen, Qiang ; Yan, Xiaolang and Zheng, Li-Rong (2010)
Abstract
Simulations are widely used to design and evaluate new protocols and applications of indoor wireless networks. However, the available network simulation tools face the challenges of providing accurate indoor channel models, three-dimensional (3-D) models, model portability, and effective validation. In order to overcome these challenges, this paper presents a new CO-Simulation framework based on MATLAB and OMNeT++ (COSMO) to rapidly build credible simulations for indoor wireless networks. A hierarchical ad hoc passive RFID network for indoor tag locating is described as a case study, demonstrating the significance and efficiency of COSMO compared with other network simulators. COSMO surpasses other network simulators in terms of workload... (More)
