Evaluation of Wireless Sensor Networks is difficult. Due to lack of standard implementations, stringent time requirements and security enabled communications evaluation of WirelessHART networks is challenging. This makes it very hard to compare, evaluate and test WirelessHART networks even controlled environments. We propose a hybrid simulation framework that is tailored for the WirelessHART protocol. Our solution enables evaluations and tests of WirelessHART networks and WirelessHART-enabled devices in a controlled simulation environment.
