// A minimal wireless network node that consists only of an antenna
// and mobility model. Designed for monitoring wireless signals without actively
// participating in network communication.
//
// Unlike full-featured wireless nodes, the Probe does not have protocol stacks,
// applications, or network interfaces. It simply provides the basic infrastructure
// needed to detect and measure wireless signals in the simulation environment.
//
// The Probe can be used for various measurement and analysis purposes in wireless
// simulations, such as signal strength mapping, interference analysis, and coverage
// testing. When the simulation runs in Qtenv, the module can be dragged (shift + mouse)
// around. Visualizers should be configured to monitor the transmission medium.
