dose ns-3 support both energy model and mobility mode?

[Behnaz Merikhi]

dear NS-3 users
I'm a newcomer and my master thesis is about smart parking in smart community based on WSN ,I wonder if somebody could answer me , is it proper to use NS-3 in this case for simulation since I need a simulator that could support mobility mode and energy model.
Best regards

Yes, 

NS-3 has both energy and mobility models, that could be assigned on the nodes.

However, I would suggest you to study the corresponding documentation on the models (particularly the energy) to understand what is implemented and what are the limitations.

Dear Konstantinos

Thank you so much for your attention.
My last question is : I just wanted to know IS it possible to use Ns3 with Sumo (Simulation of Urban Mobility) like NS2?

[Konstantinos]

Yes, you can.

a) You can generate trace files like you would do for NS-2, and then use the Ns2MobilityHelper (ns-3 class) to load that in your ns-3 scenario

or

b) You can use some of the integrated platforms such as VSimRTI, iTETRIS or others to dynamically couple NS-3 with SUMO
