Abstract :
In this article, we propose a simulation tool based on a system level modeling of microsensor nodes. This tool aims to compare different node architectures from hardware and software points of views in order to satisfy specifications of a Wireless Sensor Network including the autonomy constraint. As a result, it enables to choose an energy source including energy harvesting solutions and to select the best configuration for the node components.
