RE: [Tinyos-help] a question about setRFPower in TOSSIM
Thank you so much for your help. And I think I have found out the key step I missed before. That is, in the radio model plugin in tinyviz even if we use the default distance scaling factor(1.0), we should hit ENTER first to activate it. ___ Tinyos-help mailing list Tinyos-help@Millennium.Berkeley.EDU https://mail.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-help
Re: [Tinyos-help] set distance between motes in tinyviz
Unfortunately I cannot use TiinyOS-2.0. Maybe Nilay can. Nilay: Nonetheless, what you are trying to do is possible and I/we have done it. I must admit, after just running it again, it does not seem intuitive what it is doing: using the same setup as describe earlier but with scale 1, a node did not always hear the broadcast of one of its (upto) 4 neighbours; I thought being unit disc i.e. 0-loss-rate, that tehy would always hear their neighbours. I do not know what more advice to give this - maybe someone else can offer input -- Warm regards, Darren Bishop, MSc, BSc (Hons), MBCS On Saturday 05 August 2006 10:31, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I think that if you need a more accurate kind of simulation, you should > think about using TinyOS 2.0 and Tossim.

[Tinyos-help] Re: IEEE-802.15.4 - Beacon Mode
Dear friends, The paper entitled "EVALUATING THE USE OF MOTES AND TINYOS FOR A MOBILE SENSOR PLATFORM" evaluates 802.15.4 (beaconmode) on a real sensor network of micaz and telos motes. Suprisingly, it says beacon mode can not be supported on capabilities that present motes posses. Any comments on the paper will be very useful... please google for the paper as attachment mails are bouncing back Regards, D.

[Tinyos-help] Why I couldn't make micaz?
Hi: Recently I have installed TinyOS 2.0 on Red Linux 9.0.But it seems not working very well.It gives me many error information when I excute command 'make micaz': /opt/tinyos-2.x/support/make/Makerules:162: *** Usage: make make help Valid targets: Valid extras: Welcome to the TinyOS make system! You must specify one of the valid targets and possibly some combination of the extra options. Many targets have custom extras and extended help, so be sure to try "make help" to learn of all the available features. Global extras: docs : compile additional nescdoc documentation tinysec : compile with TinySec secure communication ERROR, "micaz tos-ident-flags tos_image" does not specify a valid target. Stop. - Can anyone give me some help? Thanks in advance. Regards.

Re: [Tinyos-help] set distance between motes in tinyviz
That plugin is a bit buggy. I have just played with it. i) setup a grid of 100 nodes ii) set the radio model to to fixed radius 10 ii) set the scalingfactor to 2 At this point all nodes are isolated. For some reason the radius is divided by the scale factor; radius 10 / factor 2 = new-radius 5, hence why all nodes are isolated, given they are 10 apart. The buggyness is in the need to hit ENTER then click update when you change the scale; also be patient as I think responsiveness degrades as the network size increases. -- Warm regards, Darren Bishop, MSc, BSc (Hons), MBCS On Friday 04 August 2006 21:29, Nilay wrote: > Thanks Darren, > but that doesnt help too. > I set up the 50 motes in a grid fashion, the distant of each is by 12.5 > units (when u enable the grid lines).
