本文分析无线传感器网络相关课程在教学中存在的常见问题,提出了利用Mixim开源框架对无线传感器网络进行全方位仿真的教学方法。经过动手搭建网络仿真模型,配置对应模块的参数,学生可加深对网络协议栈各层功能的理解。同时,观察网络传输的动画过程和仿真变量的统计信息,可帮助学生形象化无线传感器网络的工作机制,从而更好地掌握相关理论。

This paper analyzes the common problems in the teaching of wireless sensor network related courses, and proposes a teaching method of using the open source framework, Mixim, to the conduct the all-round simulation of wireless sensor network. By setting up a network simulation model and configuring the parameters of corresponding modules, students can enhance their comprehension of the functions of each layer in the network protocol stack. At the same time, observing the animation process of network transmission and the statistical information of simulation variables can help students visualize the working mechanism of wireless sensor network, and then better master the corresponding theoretical knowledge.
