Abstract

Energy Framework is an extensible OMNeT++ framework for modeling battery consumption in wireless networks. It is designed so there is a clear separation between modeling of battery state and energy consuming operations, enabling more sophisticated modeling of system behavior. The Energy Framework is largely implemented in "pure" OMNeT++; it has been successfully incorporated into the Mobility Framework and MiXiM.
