Inheritance diagram

The following diagram shows inheritance relationships for this type. Unresolved types are missing from the diagram.

Known subclasses

Name Type Description
ApskRadio compound module

This radio model provides a hypothetical radio that simply uses one of the well-known modulations without utilizing other techiques such as forward error correction, interleaving, spreading, etc.

Ieee80211OfdmRadio compound module (no description)
Ieee80211Radio compound module

This radio model is part of the IEEE 802.11 physical layer model. It supports multiple channels, different operation modes, and preamble modes. It must be used in conjunction with the Ieee80211RadioMedium model or other derived models.

Ieee802154NarrowbandRadio compound module (no description)

Extends

Name Type Description
NarrowbandRadioBase compound module

This module servces as a base module for narrowband radio models.
