Detailed Description

Random waypoint mobility model.

Each object starts by pausing at time zero for the duration governed by the random variable "Pause". After pausing, the object will pick a new waypoint (via the PositionAllocator) and a new random speed via the random variable "Speed", and will begin moving towards the waypoint at a constant speed. When it reaches the destination, the process starts over (by pausing).

This mobility model enforces no bounding box by itself; the PositionAllocator assigned to this object will bound the movement. If the user fails to provide a pointer to a PositionAllocator to be used to pick waypoints, the simulation program will assert.

The implementation of this model is not 2d-specific. i.e. if you provide a 3d random waypoint position model to this mobility model, the model will still work. There is no 3d position allocator for now but it should be trivial to add one.

Config Paths

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

  • /NodeList/[i]/$ns3::MobilityModel/$ns3::RandomWaypointMobilityModel

Attributes

  • Speed: A random variable used to pick the speed of a random waypoint model.
  • Pause: A random variable used to pick the pause of a random waypoint model.
  • PositionAllocator: The position model used to pick a destination point.
    • Set with class: ns3::PointerValue
    • Underlying type: ns3::Ptr< ns3::PositionAllocator >
    • Initial value: 0
    • Flags: construct write read

Attributes defined in parent class ns3::MobilityModel

  • Position: The current position of the mobility model.
  • Velocity: The current velocity of the mobility model.

No TraceSources are defined for this type.

TraceSources defined in parent class ns3::MobilityModel

  • CourseChange: The value of the position and/or velocity vector changed

Member Function Documentation

int64_t ns3::RandomWaypointMobilityModel::DoAssignStreams ( int64_t  start)
privatevirtual

The default implementation does nothing but return the passed-in parameter. Subclasses using random variables are expected to override this.

Reimplemented from ns3::MobilityModel.

Definition at line 116 of file random-waypoint-mobility-model.cc.

References NS_ASSERT_MSG, and ns3::RandomVariableStream::SetStream().

Vector ns3::RandomWaypointMobilityModel::DoGetPosition ( void  ) const
privatevirtual
Returns
the current position.

Concrete subclasses of this base class must implement this method.

Implements ns3::MobilityModel.

Definition at line 98 of file random-waypoint-mobility-model.cc.

Vector ns3::RandomWaypointMobilityModel::DoGetVelocity ( void  ) const
privatevirtual
Returns
the current velocity.

Concrete subclasses of this base class must implement this method.

Implements ns3::MobilityModel.

Definition at line 111 of file random-waypoint-mobility-model.cc.

void ns3::RandomWaypointMobilityModel::DoInitialize ( void  )
protectedvirtual

This method is called only once by Object::Initialize. If the user calls Object::Initialize multiple times, DoInitialize is called only the first time.

Subclasses are expected to override this method and chain up to their parent's implementation once they are done. It is safe to call GetObject and AggregateObject from within this method.

Reimplemented from ns3::Object.

Definition at line 81 of file random-waypoint-mobility-model.cc.

References ns3::Object::DoInitialize().

void ns3::RandomWaypointMobilityModel::DoSetPosition ( const Vector position)
privatevirtual
Parameters
positionthe position to set.

Concrete subclasses of this base class must implement this method.

Implements ns3::MobilityModel.
