[Tinyos-help] EnergyEstimatorM, tinyos-2.0

[Manish Kochhal]

Dear TinyOS users,

I have read in the tinyos-2.0 tutorial that, currently no power
measurement(s) functionality is being provided in v2.0... Has anybody
developed any Energy Estimator module, where it takes into account the idle
energy, the send/receive, the use of CPU, sensing et. al. I am sure the
parameters vary across different hardware platforms and writing a generic
one over the HIL would be challenging. Anyways, can anybody point me to any
paper where some sort of realistic and approximate energy estimation was
calculated for executing basic sensor network tasks ...

I am thinking of writing my own energy estimator for mica2. If there is one
available already for 1.x then I can port it for 2.0 (assuming that the next
update of 2.0 has not done that already?)

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
--Manish
