Dear Colleagues: I am running TOSSIM simulations of the CTP algorithm by using codes in *tinyos-2.1.2/apps/testsTestNetwork*. I am using *make micaz sim* under the TinyOs2.1.2 environment.
I would like to evaluate the energy aspects of CTP. I, therefore, need to get battery voltage level. I tried to use the DemoSensorC component, but it was always giving a huge constant value (48879), which is clearly not correct. This is also confirmed in http://tinyos.stanford.edu/tinyos-wiki/index.php/Sensing, where it has been mentioned that DemoSensorC gives fake voltage readings for MICAz. When I tried to used the VoltageC component directly, I got the following error: In component `Atm128AdcC': > /opt/tinyos-2.1.2/tos/chips/atm128/adc/Atm128AdcC.nc:74: no match > make: *** [sim-exe] Error 1 > I commented out *Atm128AdcP.Atm128Calibrate -> PlatformC; *in line 74 of Atm128AdcC.nc, which causes the above error and initialized *prescaler* in* Atm128AdcP.nc*, which is in the same folder as *Atm128AdcC.nc, *to ATM128_ADC_PRESCALE_16 and disabled the platform prescaler option (ATM128_ADC_PRESCALE). I run *make micaz sim* again*. *This time, it complied successfully. But when I run *python test.py*, I am getting 0 for battery voltage. I tried to change the ADC Channel in* VoltageP* the following options: ATM128_ADC_SNGL_ADC0 ATM128_ADC_SNGL_ADC1 ATM128_ADC_SNGL_ADC2 ATM128_ADC_SNGL_ADC3 ATM128_ADC_SNGL_ADC4 ATM128_ADC_SNGL_ADC5 ATM128_ADC_SNGL_ADC6 ATM128_ADC_SNGL_ADC7 I recompiled and run *python test.py *but I was still getting zero values for battery voltage. I, therefore, would like to find out the proper steps that I must take in order to read battery voltage in TOSSIM when simulating MICAz motes under the TinyOs2.1.2 environment. Your assistance will be greatly appreciated. Best regards ＊＊＊＊＊ Clement <http://nthambazale.com/>
