Abstract
This paper presents an e-textile network simulator (ENST) based on Matlab/Simulink. Considering link and node faults are frequent in e-textile networks, these events are modeled and simulated efficiently in ENST. The tool is encapsulated as a simulink block named "E-textile Network". Implementation, architecture and system features are discussed in detail. Experimental examples are given to show that ENST can simplify and facilitate the simulating process of e-textile networks.Keywords
