Cooja - In-Building Models & Mote Choice

I'm currently working on a 3-months projects based on Contiki-NG and Cooja at the university and I have to create In-Building models and I would like to ask two questions please :

1) Is it possible to add an obstacle in Cooja like a wall or something else or do you know any similar tool able to do that ?

2) In Cooja, what is the closest mote I can use to simulate a Texas Instrument CC2650 LaunchPad ? (z1 mote isn't available in the new version of Contiki-NG)

Thanks!

Solution

  • 1) Yes, you can have obstacles in Cooja. For that you need to use the MRM radio medium (Multi-path Ray-tracing radio medium). There is not a lot of documentation, but read the documenting comments in the source code and try it out.

    2) It is not possible to simulate the hardware-level details of CC2650. Try using Cooja motes: their support is much improved in Contiki-NG. Also, we are going to add another msp430-based mote with more RAM in the next release of Contiki-NG (v4.2).
