Theory CUP CARBON ENVIRONMENT :

CupCarbon U-One is part of the research project PERSEPTEUR supported by
the French Agence Nationale de la Recherche ANR under the reference ANR-
14-CE24-0017-01.
CupCarbon is a Smart City and Internet of Things Wireless Sensor Network
(SCI-WSN) simulator.
Objective:
Its objective is to design, visualize, debug and validate distributed algorithms for
monitoring, environmental data collection, etc. and to create environmental
scenarios such as fires, gas, mobiles, and generally within educational and
scientific projects. Not only can It help to visually explain the basic concepts of
sensor networks and how they work; it may also support scientists to test their
wireless topologies, protocols, etc.

CupCarbon simulation is based on the application layer of the nodes. This makes
it a real complement to existing simulators. It does not simulate all protocol
layers due to the complex nature of urban networks which need to incorporate
other complex and resource consuming information such as buildings, roads,
mobility, signals, etc. Moreover, CupCarbon represents the main kernel of the
ANR project PERSEPTEUR that aims to develop algorithms for an accurate
simulation of the propagation and interference of signals in a 3D urban
environment.
CupCarbon offers two types of environments:
1. The first simulation environment is a multi-agent environment , which
enables the design of mobility scenarios and the generation of events
such as fires and gas as well as the simulation of mobiles such as
vehicles and flying objects (e.g. UAVs, insects, etc.)
2. The second simulation environment represents a discrete event
simulation of wireless sensor networks which takes into account the
scenario designed on the basis of the first environment.
Procedure: 1. Create New Project Click : Project -> New Project

Give any Project Name (Example : Add1)

2. Select Sensor Node

Click : Nodes  Add sensor

3. Create scripts
Click : Simulation -> Communication script
Give a file name (Example : Add2)
Write the Senscript to display positions.

4. Repeat the above procedure for Receiving Node :

Click : Simulation -> Communication script
Give a file name (Example : Receive)
5. Script assignment: Device parameters
Assign the script of each sensor.
Select a sensor and then click on
the item Device parameters in the
menu nodes.
Once the device parameter window is
opened, click on Enter to display its
parameters.
Select the corresponding script in the
list(Example : Add2) of the Script
file and then click on the button (blue
arrow) in the right part.
Similarly , Select sensor 2 and Select the corresponding script in the
list(Example : Receive) of the Script file and then click on the button (blue
 arrow) in the right part
6. Simulate
Open the simulation window: Simulation -> WSN Simulation
Transmission from Node 1 to Node 2 is seen.
7. To transmit ‘HELLO’ from Node 1 to Node 2
Transmit ‘HELLO’ in the code.
Sansript:
The Senscript to Transmit data is as below :

loop
send a
delay 1000
send b
delay 1000
send a *
delay 1000
send b *
delay 1000
send a * 2
delay 1000
send b * 2
delay 1000
send a 3
delay 1000
send b 3
delay 1000
send a 2
delay 1000
send b 2
delay 1000
send a 4
delay 1000
send b 4
delay 1000
send a 0 10
delay 1000
send b 0 10
delay 1000

The Senscript to Receive data is as below :

loop
wait
read x
if ($x==a)
mark 1
else
mark 0
endif
Output:  Transmit from one node to other:

 Transmit Hello to the node:

Conclusion: We have learnt to configure to WSNs into transmitter and receiver node and
exchange data between them. It includes a script called SenScript which allows
to program and to configure each sensor node individually. From this script it is
also possible to generate codes for hardware platforms such as Arduino/XBee,
where research is still in progress
Real Life  CupCarbon offers the possibility to simulate algorithms and scenarios in
Application: several steps.
 To design, visualize, debug and validate distributed algorithms for
monitoring, environmental data collection, etc.
 To create environmental scenarios such as fires, gas, mobiles, and
generally within educational and scientific projects.
 To support scientists to test their wireless topologies, protocols, etc
