HOW TO IMPORT MIXIM PACKAGES IN OMNET++

To import MIXIM Packages in Omnet++ tool , in this page we have explained  about the 1. The MiXiM Framework stands for Modeling of cross-layer and cross-phenomenon protocols for wireless and mobile networks in OMNeT++. It’s a simulation tool specifically made for OMNeT++ that focuses on modeling wireless and mobile networks. This framework is especially effective for simulating low-power wireless networks like wireless sensor networks (WSNs), body area networks (BANs), and mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). MiXiM offers comprehensive models for wireless communication, covering aspects like radio wave propagation, antenna features, and interference. Additionally, it includes various protocol models for the MAC, network, and application layers, allowing researchers to simulate and assess the performance of different network protocols in realistic scenarios.

PRE-REQUISITES:

  1. Fresh installation of Windows 10:

4.MiXiM Building Process:

Next, we need to build the MiXiM related folders to make MiXiM Framework to work in the OMNET++ 4.2 IDE. Right Click the MiXiM folders and Click the Build Project Option to build the MiXiM Framework.

Here We successfully built and imported the MiXiM Framework in the OMNET++ IDE.

5.Executing the Example MiXiM Framework Program:

Then we need to run the Example MiXiM Framework program to view output of the program. Firstly, we need to locate to the “/MiXiM/examples/WSNRouting” to find the example program in the MiXiM Folder.
