AboutΒΆ
Whitefield provides a simulation environment for wireless sensor network by combining realistic RF simulation with the native mode use of popular IoT stacks/OSes such as Contiki/RIOT/OpenThread. Thus one can use existing stack implementation as is and test it on top of realistic RF simulation.
Typical use of Whitefield:
- Large scale testing of sensor networks
- Large scale interop testing between multitudes of stacks in same wireless environment. It can scale to thousands of nodes on general purpose server (even laptops).
- Validate RF phy/mac simulation against each other. For e.g. compare results in NS3 vs Castalia
- Regression tests using IdealAir(future).
