Enabling Sensing and Mobility on Wireless Testbeds

摘要: The inherent inability of simulation models to adequately express factors such as wireless signal propagation etc., can lead incomplete evaluation protocols and applications. Thus, testing proposed schemes under real-life settings has become the de facto validation process. More specifically, in context scenarios that include mobility, real environments becomes a prerequisite. Networking testbeds have recently extended their capabilities by providing researchers with ability mobile nodes experiments well. Towards this direction, we developed prototype node NITOS, which features mounted camera interfaces enable remote access control. mobility framework is also accompanied graphical user interface allows experimenter observe node’s behavior remotely.
