IMediumVisualizer

module interface

Interface allows configuring different ~IMediumVisualizer submodules from INI files. Such a visualizer displays transmitting nodes, receiving nodes, and propagating radio signals on a medium.

Inheritance diagram

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

Implemented by

Name	Type	Description
MediumCanvasVisualizer	simple module	Visualizes a medium on a 2D canvas. It displays communication ranges and interference ranges as circles around network nodes. It displays an image at network nodes which are currently transmitting, and a different image at other network nodes which are currently receiving. It also displays radio signals as a 2D ring or a 3D sphere as they propagate through the medium.
MediumOsgVisualizer	simple module	Visualizes a medium using a 3D osg scene. It displays communication ranges and interference ranges as circles around network nodes. It displays an image at network nodes which are currently transmitting, and a different image at other network nodes which are currently receiving. It also displays radio signals as a growing 2D ring or a 3D sphere as they propagate through the medium. All 2D shapes such as circles, rings, and images can be displayed in 4 different planes: camera, xy, xz, and yz. It's also possible to use animated images.
MediumVisualizer	compound module	Integrates canvas and osg medium visualizers into a single module.

Used in compound modules

Name	Type	Description
IntegratedCanvasVisualizer	compound module	Integrates all canvas visualizers into a single module. It supports disabling any submodule visualizer by providing an empty string as its type.
IntegratedMultiCanvasVisualizer	compound module	Integrates all canvas visualizers into a single module. It supports disabling any submodule visualizer by providing an empty string as its type.
IntegratedMultiOsgVisualizer	compound module	Integrates all osg visualizers into a single module. It supports disabling any submodule visualizer by providing an empty string as its type.
IntegratedOsgVisualizer	compound module	Integrates all osg visualizers into a single module. It supports disabling any submodule visualizer by providing an empty string as its type.
MediumVisualizer	compound module	Integrates canvas and osg medium visualizers into a single module.

Extends

Name	Type	Description
IVisualizer	module interface	Base interface for all visualizer module interfaces in the INET Framework. Defines common parameters for specifying visualization target and subject modules. Visualizers provide graphical representation of various aspects of network simulation, such as links, traffic flows, routing paths, and network state information.

Parameters
