Detailed Description

Modelize the propagation loss through a transmission medium.

Calculate the receive power (dbm) from a transmit power (dbm) and a mobility model for the source and destination positions.

Config Paths

ns3::PropagationLossModel is accessible through the following paths with Config::Set and Config::Connect:

Member Function Documentation

int64_t ns3::PropagationLossModel::AssignStreams ( int64_t  stream)

If this loss model uses objects of type RandomVariableStream, set the stream numbers to the integers starting with the offset 'stream'. Return the number of streams (possibly zero) that have been assigned. If there are PropagationLossModels chained together, this method will also assign streams to the downstream models.

Parameters
stream
Returns
the number of stream indices assigned by this model

double ns3::PropagationLossModel::CalcRxPower ( double  txPowerDbm,
Ptr< MobilityModel a,
Ptr< MobilityModel b 
) const
Parameters
txPowerDbmcurrent transmission power (in dBm)
athe mobility model of the source
bthe mobility model of the destination
Returns
the reception power after adding/multiplying propagation loss (in dBm)

Definition at line 72 of file propagation-loss-model.cc.

Referenced by MatrixPropagationLossModelTestCase::DoRun(), RangePropagationLossModelTestCase::DoRun(), ns3::SimpleOfdmWimaxChannel::Send(), ns3::YansWifiChannel::Send(), ns3::SingleModelSpectrumChannel::StartTx(), and ns3::MultiModelSpectrumChannel::StartTx().

Ptr< PropagationLossModel > ns3::PropagationLossModel::GetNext ( void  )

Gets the next PropagationLossModel in the chain of loss models that act on the signal.

Returns
The next PropagationLossModel in the chain

This method of chaining propagation loss models only works commutatively if the propagation loss of all models in the chain are independent of transmit power.

Definition at line 66 of file propagation-loss-model.cc.

void ns3::PropagationLossModel::SetNext ( Ptr< PropagationLossModel next)

Enables a chain of loss models to act on the signal.

Parameters
nextThe next PropagationLossModel to add to the chain

This method of chaining propagation loss models only works commutatively if the propagation loss of all models in the chain are independent of transmit power.
