IObstacleLoss

module interface

The obstacle loss model describes the reduction of power as the signal passes through physical objects.

Inheritance diagram

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

Implemented by

Name	Type	Description
DielectricObstacleLoss	compound module	This obstacle loss model determines the power loss by computing the accurate dielectric and reflection loss along the straight path considering the shape, the position, the orientation, and the material of obstructing physical objects.
IdealObstacleLoss	compound module	This obstacle loss model determines power loss by checking if there is any obstructing physical object along the straight propagation path. The result is either total power loss if there was such an object or no loss at all if there wasn't.
TracingObstacleLossBase	compound module	This module servces as a base module for tracing obstacle loss models.

Used in compound modules

Name	Type	Description
RadioMedium	compound module	The medium model describes the shared physical medium where communication takes place. It keeps track of radios, noise sources, ongoing transmissions, background noise, and other ongoing noises. The medium computes when, where and how transmissions and noises arrive at receivers. It also efficiently provides the set of interfering transmissions and noises for the receivers.
