Here is a list of toolboxes and functions that are useful for measuring various Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) parameters:
- Signal to Noise Ratio Analysis: Use the Signal Processing Toolbox for “snr” function for signal-to-noise ratio calculations.
- BER Evaluation: The Communications Toolbox also supports bit error rate analysis using functions such as “biterr”, “berawgn”, and “berfading”.
- Throughput Measurement: The WLAN Toolbox is suitable for throughput analysis, offering functions like “wlanMACFrame” and MAC layer performance evaluation tools.
- Network Topology Simulation: Use Base MATLAB features such as array operations, “pdist2” for pairwise distances, and “scatter” for visualization to create and analyze node topologies.
- Channel Modelling: The Communications Toolbox includes functions like “rayleighchan”, “ricianchan”, and “fspl” for simulating various wireless communication channels.
