IEEE 802.15.4 security sublayer for OMNET++

Ghada Glissa, Aref Meddeb · 2017

Most network simulators do not support security features. In this paper, we introduce a new security module for OMNET++ that implements the IEEE 802.15.4 security suite. This module, developed using the C++ language, can simulate all devices and sensors that implement the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. The OMNET++ security module is also evaluated in terms of quality of services in the presence of physical hop attacks. Results show that our module is reliable and can safely be used by researchers.
