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.)

Attributes

TimerThreshold: The 'timer' threshold in the ARF algorithm.
- Set with class: ns3::UintegerValue

Attributes defined in parent class ns3::WifiRemoteStationManager

IsLowLatency: If true, we attempt to modelize a so-called low-latency device: a device where decisions about tx parameters can be made on a per-packet basis and feedback about the transmission of each packet is obtained before sending the next. Otherwise, we modelize a high-latency device, that is a device where we cannot update our decision about tx parameters after every packet transmission.
- Set with class: BooleanValue
- Underlying type: bool
- Flags: read
MaxSsrc: The maximum number of retransmission attempts for an RTS. This value will not have any effect on some rate control algorithms.

- Set with class: ns3::UintegerValue

- Initial value: 2346
- Flags: construct write read

privatevirtual

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

st	the station that we failed to send DATA
