Detailed Description

Cosine Antenna Model.

This class implements the cosine model as described in:

Li Chunjian, "Efficient Antenna Patterns for Three-Sector WCDMA Systems"

Note that only the element factor of the above model is considered. Also, an additional constant gain is added to model the radiation pattern on the vertical plane (to account for the fact that the elevation angle is not included in the model).

double ns3::CosineAntennaModel::GetGainDb ( Angles a )

virtual

this method is expected to be re-implemented by each antenna model

Parameters

a	the spherical angles at which the radiation pattern should be evaluated

Returns: the power gain in dBi of the antenna radiation pattern at the specified angles; dBi means dB with respect to the gain of an isotropic radiator. Since a power gain is used, the efficiency of the antenna is expected to be included in the gain value.

Implements ns3::AntennaModel.
