description Network reliability of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is difficult to be evaluated because of its complexity, multistates, and dynamic characteristics. To satisfy the user's need of reliability evaluation for network transmission we propose some evaluation models and a dynamical evaluation framework. The evaluation models are mission-oriented and based on transmission paths (uplink and downlink). The dynamic evaluation framework can be on-demand customized and it will be autoupdated once the communication environment changes or the nodes fail. Finally, we simulated clustered and mesh WSNs with NS-2. Simulation result shows that the proposed evaluation framework was effective and accurate.
