IRadioMedium

module interface

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.

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

Implemented by

Name	Type	Description
APSKDimensionalRadioMedium	compound module	This radio medium 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. It must be used in conjunction with the APSKDimensionalRadio model.
APSKLayeredDimensionalRadioMedium	compound module	This medium model is used by a simple hypothetical layered radio.
APSKLayeredScalarRadioMedium	compound module	This medium model is used by a simple hypothetical layered radio.
APSKScalarRadioMedium	compound module	This radio medium 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. It must be used in conjunction with the APSKScalarRadio model.
IdealRadioMedium	compound module	This radio medium model provides a very simple but fast and predictable physical layer behavior. It must be used in conjunction with the IdealRadio model.
Ieee80211DimensionalRadioMedium	compound module	This radio medium model uses dimensional transmission power (that changes over time and/or frequency) in the analog representation. It must be used in conjunction with the Ieee80211DimensionalRadio model.
Ieee80211LayeredDimensionalRadioMedium	compound module	(no description)
Ieee80211LayeredScalarRadioMedium	compound module	(no description)
Ieee80211RadioMedium	compound module	This radio medium model is part of thee IEEE 802.11 physical layer model. It must be used in conjunction with the Ieee80211Radio model or other derived models.
Ieee80211ScalarRadioMedium	compound module	This radio medium model uses scalar transmission power in the analog representation. It must be used in conjunction with the Ieee80211ScalarRadio model.
Ieee802154NarrowbandScalarRadioMedium	compound module	(no description)
Ieee802154UWBIRRadioMedium	compound module	(no 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.
