Hi ,
We are running some throughput simulations on TOSSIM 2.0.2 that we installed from the TinyOS website. In the simulation we have a single receiver and two senders. The topology is such that all nodes can hear each other. In the simulation the senders continuously send packets to the receiver by posting a send task the minute sendDone is returned.

The throughput values that we are getting are quite believable (~300 pkts/sec), however the simulation is quite slow. For a 5 second simulation it takes close to an hour to complete. Could this be due to the new noise model being used ? We are using the complete meyers-heavy.txt file for generating the noise model.


It definitely shouldn't take that long. The meyer-heavy trace might take a little while to process, but it's definitely been designed so that the run-time cost is very low.

How many nodes are you simulating? If you create a dense RF topology and only turn on 3 nodes, the RF simulation will still take a long time, as it needs to consider what's happening at off nodes in case they turn on in the middle of a packet.
