Detailed Description

ARF Rate control algorithm.

This class implements the so-called ARF algorithm which was initially described in WaveLAN-II: A High-performance wireless LAN for the unlicensed band, by A. Kamerman and L. Monteban. in Bell Lab Technical Journal, pages 118-133, Summer 1997.

This implementation differs from the initial description in that it uses a packet-based timer rather than a time-based timer as described in XXX (I cannot find back the original paper which described how the time-based timer could be easily replaced with a packet-based timer.)

This RAA does not support HT modes and will error exit if the user tries to configure this RAA with a Wi-Fi MAC that supports 802.11n or higher.

◆ DoCreateStation()

Returns
a new station data structure

◆ DoGetDataTxVector()

WifiTxVector ns3::ArfWifiManager::DoGetDataTxVector ( WifiRemoteStation * station,
MHz_u allowedWidth )
overrideprivatevirtual
Parameters
stationthe station that we need to communicate
allowedWidththe allowed width to send a packet to the station
Returns
the TXVECTOR to use to send a packet to the station

Note: This method is called before sending a unicast packet or a fragment of a unicast packet to decide which transmission mode to use.

◆ DoGetRtsTxVector()

WifiTxVector ns3::ArfWifiManager::DoGetRtsTxVector ( WifiRemoteStation * station)
overrideprivatevirtual
Parameters
stationthe station that we need to communicate
Returns
the transmission mode to use to send an RTS to the station

Note: This method is called before sending an RTS to a station to decide which transmission mode to use for the RTS.

Todo
we could/should implement the ARF algorithm for RTS only by picking a single rate within the BasicRateSet.

◆ DoInitialize()

void ns3::ArfWifiManager::DoInitialize ( )
overrideprivatevirtual

Initialize() implementation.

This method is called only once by Initialize(). If the user calls Initialize() multiple times, DoInitialize() is called only the first time.

Subclasses are expected to override this method and chain up to their parent's implementation once they are done. It is safe to call GetObject() and AggregateObject() from within this method.

Reimplemented from ns3::Object.

◆ DoReportDataFailed()

void ns3::ArfWifiManager::DoReportDataFailed ( WifiRemoteStation * st)
overrideprivatevirtual

It is important to realize that "recovery" mode starts after failure of the first transmission after a rate increase and ends at the first successful transmission.

Specifically, recovery mode transcends retransmissions boundaries. Fundamentally, ARF handles each data transmission independently, whether it is the initial transmission of a packet or the retransmission of a packet. The fundamental reason for this is that there is a backoff between each data transmission, be it an initial transmission or a retransmission.

Parameters
stthe station that we failed to send Data

◆ DoReportDataOk()

double ackSnr,
WifiMode ackMode,
double dataSnr,
MHz_u dataChannelWidth,
uint8_t dataNss )
overrideprivatevirtual

This method is a pure virtual method that must be implemented by the sub-class.

This allows different types of WifiRemoteStationManager to respond differently,

Parameters
stationthe station that we successfully sent RTS
ackSnrthe SNR of the ACK we received
ackModethe WifiMode the receiver used to send the ACK
dataSnrthe SNR of the DATA we sent
dataChannelWidththe channel width of the DATA we sent
dataNssthe number of spatial streams used to send the DATA
