    Simulation of Transitional and Bursty Wireless Visual Sensor Networks
    (IEEE, 2019-10) Caswell, Mark; Liang, Yao; Computer and Information Science, School of Science
    Communication links in low-power wireless visual sensor networks (WVSNs) are subject to short-term and long-term noise variations. These variations can cause a WVSN to exhibit prolonged or periodic transitional or bursty transmission performance. In this paper, we present our work on how to generate noise traces that simulate real-world transitional and bursty network behavior in TOSSIM. We develop a toolset called BurstyGen for TOSSIM which can facilitate WVSN protocol designers and application developers to better understand WVSN performance under these conditions. BurstyGen allows users to model both short time-scale and long time-scale variations in WVSN noise environments for the simulation and testing of WVSN system algorithms and protocols.
