Calculate power consumption to see if the node die

问题:

I am using Omnet++ and Inet 3.4.0 and I am trying to simulate power consumption and make the node dead after it's energy gets over. I tried IdealEnergySource model and SimpleEnergyStorage. but I could not figure out where to keep the parameter of the energy source. I tried in SimpleEnergyStorage.cc but could not find.

Than you in advance

The Wireless08 tutorial from INET uses IdealEnergyStorage which has an infinite amount of energy. Therefore in that case a node will never be dead.
To model a real consumption one can use SimpleEnergyStorage. In Wireless08 section of omnetpp.ini comment out the line:

#*.host*.energyStorageType = "IdealEnergyStorage"

and add the following lines:

**.host*.energyStorageType = "SimpleEnergyStorage"
**.host*.energyStorage.nominalCapacity = 0.10J
**.host*.energyStorage.initialCapacity = 0.09J
**.host*.energyStorage.nodeShutdownCapacity = 0J
**.host*.energyStorage.nodeStartCapacity = 0.01J
**.hasStatus = true

Moreover, edit WirelessB.ned and add at the beginning:

import inet.common.lifecycle.LifecycleController;

and in submodules:

lifecycleController: LifecycleController;
