If you are using TOSSIM T2, there is no "node location". (There is also no way to configure [varying] TX power levels). **
The "range" is setup simply by the links (and associated gain) you establish. This can be done by using the USC gain generator (which can take a "topology".) There are many, many, many variables to configure wrt. path-loss and noise. See the recent reply by Philip about the estimator threshold. **I am working on a visualization interaction system which dynamically generates topologies from "locations" and "power settings" using the same approach as used by USC (not all the randomization has been added.) It is not ready for release but you are welcome to poke around the code-base. However, before you start down this approach, consider reading the "TOSSIM Live" paper by Chad Metcalf. Simulations are just what they are, simulations, and only realistic (in the area where it matters) models will produce realistic results. _______________________________________________ Tinyos-help mailing list [email protected] https://www.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-help
