This paper proposes a co-simulator that combines OMNeT++ for communication systems with PSS/E the electrical transmission network. The applies an event-driven synchronization method minimizes errors due to delays in between both simulators. pauses simulation of power system at each event, while supervisory module returns control event simulator if any condition from pre-specified set is met. pr...

Proactive and reactive protocols of MANET are used to route the information over the links to the destination nodes, end-toend and hop-to-hop. In multi-hop mobile ad hoc networks the consumption of energy at the mobile nodes end and its proper utilization is quite necessary. The nodes and other routing resources in the MANETs do not afford to waste battery power during the critical operations l...

—One of the main purposes of discrete event simulators such as OMNeT++ is to test new algorithms or protocols in realistic environments. These often need to be benchmarked against optimal/theoretical results obtained by running commercial optimization solvers. The usual way to do this is to have the simulator run in a standalone mode and generate (few) snapshots, which are then fed to the optim...

Developing wireless sensor network (WSN) applications is a challenging task. Simulations are a key component in the development process, since they offer simple means of testing and evaluating the applications without the need of time consuming and tedious deployment. But simulations alone are not sufficient to evaluate such applications. Only experiments on real hardware can ultimately verify ...

This paper discusses the simulation of Cooperative Diversity Protocols (CDP) which have emerged as a promising technique for improving reliability in a wireless environment. In CDP, neighboring node(s) cooperate with a transmitter to deliver multiple copies of a packet to a receiver, via independent fading channels. These multiple copies can be combined at the receiver to recover the original d...

The field of delay tolerant networking is rich with protocols that exploit node mobility to overcome unpredictable or otherwise bad connectivity. The performance of many of these protocols is highly sensitive to the underlying mobility model which determines the nodes’ movements, and the characteristics of these mobility models are not often studied or compared. With few exceptions, authors tes...

This paper presents a self-aware network approach with cognitive packets, routing engine based on random neural networks. The simulation study, performed using custom simulator extension of OmNeT++, compares RNN other methods. performance results RNN-based routing, combined the distributed nature its operation inaccessible to presented methods, demonstrate advantages introducing networks as dec...

Real-time emulation of 5G networks is highly beneficial for several purposes, such as prototyping or performance evaluation distributed applications meant to run on networks, research demonstration, other technologies (e.g., Multi-access Edge Computing) interoperate with access. In this work, we describe how use Simu5G, a new end-to-end simulator based OMNeT++, real-time emulator. We in detail ...

This paper presents a novel fault-tolerant networked control system architecture consisting of two cells working in-line. This architecture is fault-tolerant at the level of the controllers as well as the sensors. Each cell is based on the sensor-to-actuator approach and has an additional supervisor node. It is proven, via analysis as well as OMNeT++ simulations that the production line succeed...
