In this paper, we design and implement a WSN testbed with a distributed architecture. It allows researchers to submit their experiments and to retrieve the results from the central server. In the testbed, we also propose a software-based hardware-supported scheme to measure the energy consumption of running sensor nodes. And we compare our energy-consumption estimation with oscilloscope measurements. The results show that the energy consumption is very close to oscilloscope measurements.
Testbed deployment approaches oriented to software based and hardware supported schemes to measure energy consumption face this issue in a holistic way REF .
