Design of Simulator for Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks

As a special application and extension of the traditional Wireless Sensor Networks（WSN）,Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks（WMSN） expand human＇s horizon to any physical space.It has shown its potential in a wide spectrum from military to industry,from commercial to environmental monitoring and so on.Network simulation is fundamental to study sensor networks,and is being the common way to test new applications and protocols in this evolving research field.The research of WMSN has become the hot issue,but the development of simulation experimental tools for WMSN is lagging behind.In this paper,analyzed existing simulation tools comprehensively and found that they have a lot of deficiencies if they are used for the researches of WMSN.A design of simulator for WMSN is proposed and a solution with its implementation framework is fit for new features of WMSN.
