IPropagation

Package: inet.physicallayer.contract.packetlevel

IPropagation

module interface

The propagation model describes how a radio signal propagates through space over time.

Inheritance diagram

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

Implemented by

Name Type Description
ConstantSpeedPropagation compound module

This propagation model computes the propagation time to be proportional to the traveled distance, the ratio is determined by the constant propagation speed parameter.

ConstantTimePropagation compound module

This propagation model computes the propagation time to be independent of the traveled distance. In other words, the propagation time is determined by a constant parameter.

PropagationBase compound module

This module servces as a base module for propagation 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.
