A wireless sensornetwork (WSN) is a wireless network consisting of distributed autonomousdevices using sensors to observe physical or environmental conditions. Theenergy consumption is very important for WSNs. The paper presents thatmeasurement of the energy consumption of indoor environment. Ti CC2538 moduleswere used as WSN nodes and they were programmed via Contiki Operating System(OS). Simulator of Contiki OS is COOJA. The program was simulated with COOJAbefore being tried in real life. Then, measurements were taken directly fromthe module via Labview and DAQ card. The network used Low Energy AdaptiveClustering Hierarchy (Leach) protocol which is a very popular networking protocolfor WSN. The nodes in the network were prevented to go in sleep mode. Therefore,measurements showed transmit and receive mode energy consumption. On the other hand,cluster head election period and transmission period of sensed data selected asshort as possible to make measurements in a short time. The proposedmeasurement system can be used evaluate any new networking protocol morerealistically.
