I have attempted some work in WSNs.
1. There used to be a Matlab toolbox for WSNs. So you can use it.
2. In Matlab scripts every entry is a matrix. So you may code, and represent connection s with matrices.
3. Ideally, you may want to learn the generally accepted WSN simulators for research: NS2, NS3, Omnet, Opnet. In the NS you may find a steep learning curve.
Recently some of my students have used a arduino board for using data acquisition to MATLAB. Another alternative is available in Scilab
for better and efficient results go for open source NS2 or GNS2 simulators
For hardware connection you can use arduino and HC-05 to send bluetooth message to computer or using another hardware instead of HC-05 for Wi fi
Dear Aitizaz,
There are many ways to actually model a WSN in general. One interesting way of doing it is by modelling the interaction among sensor nodes (SNs) using graph theory. It enables you to further do signal processing on graph and so on. Have a look at our papers below to put it in context and clarify your mind before you decide on what tools to use and what modelling:
