The Wireless Fidelity Simulator (WiFiSim) isa ongoing project for the designand development of awirelessnetwork simulatorbased on thelower levelsof the OSI architecture(PHY and MAClayers) described by the IEEE 802.11 standard.The functionalitypursuedis to be usedto predict andstudy the behavior ofawireless network based onphysical parameterssuch as distance,obstacle presence, and node features(e.g. sensitivityto the environment,transmission power, etc.). WiFiSimExtensionv2.0has been designed to facilitateboth planning anddeployment ofwireless networks in agraphical manner, andoptimizingthemby calculatingthe best positionofAPswithin a building.To this end, we have implementeda powerful tool thatobtainsthe optimaldesignsolution by using genetic algorithms, which takeinto account the greatercoverage areaand signal strength.

El Simulador de Fidelidad Inalámbrica (WiFiSim) es un proyecto cuyo objetivo es el diseño e implementación de redes inalámbricas basadas en el estándar IEEE 802.11. El simulador WiFiSim v1.0 ha sido implementado para el estudio de los niveles inferiores de la arquitectura OSI (capas física y enlace de datos). La funcionalidad perseguida es la de ser utilizado para optimizar el comportamiento de una red en función de diferentes parámetros físicos definidos por el usuario como la distancia, presencia de obstáculos y características de los dispositivos empleados (p.ej. sensibilidad al medio, potencia de emisión, etc.). WiFiSim Extension v2.0 tiene como objetivo facilitar la planificación y despliegue de redes inalámbricas de una forma gráfica, así como la optimización de éstas mediante el cálculo de la mejor posición de uno o varios APs dentro de un edificio. Para ello, se ha implementado una potente herramienta que obtiene la solución óptima de diseño, mediante algoritmos genéticos, teniendo en cuenta la mayor zona de cobertura y potencia de señal posible.
