Abstract:
Access control systems consist in managing access to buildings or any secure area where access is restricted. This paper presents a model that helps build access control systems along with its internal architecture. This system is modeled according to the behavior of the access control system. The OMNeT++ network simulator, in addition to the INET framework, is used to model the behavior of a studied system as well as its energy consumption. The paper aims to compare the energy consumption of the studied system and its simulated model with the same working scenario. The challenge is to create a simulation model with a set of configurable parameters, where users will be able to modify the value of the latter, based on the intended application. By this way, the simulated model calculates promptly the energy consumption.
