Process to Simulate IoT Devices

Simulate IoT Devices

Our technical experts have highlighted the notable points based on simulation of IoT devices over this article.

Ns3 Code to Simulate IoT Devices

Firstly, let’s take a look about the sample code based on Ns3 to simulate the IoT devices.

Import header files


#include "ns3/network-module.h"

#include "ns3/mobility-module.h"

#include "ns3/iot-module.h"

Create node container using create function with number of IoT devices


NodeContainer IoTNodes;

IoTNodes.Create (numNodes);

Configure IoT devices using IoT helper class


IoTHelper iot;

iot.SetDeviceAttribute ("ForceEtherType", BooleanValue (true) );

NetDeviceContainer iotdevice = iot.Install (devices);

Configure Ns-3 for Simulate IoT Devices

IoT modules are configured in Ns-3.26 mainly for the IoT device simulation process through the execution of below mentioned commands.

cd /home/research/ns-allinone-3.26/ns-3.26

sudo ./waf configure

Simulate IoT Devices Using Ns3

To implement the Ns3 main file and simulate IoT devices based simulation, we have to execute the following commands.

cd /home/research/ns-allinone-3.26/ns-3.26

sudo ./waf –run IoTMain –vis

As the final note, we highlighted the result that is acquired through the simulation of IoT devices using Ns3.
