Member Function Documentation

int64_t ns3::PropagationLossModel::AssignStreams ( int64_t  stream)

If this loss model uses objects of type RandomVariableStream, set the stream numbers to the integers starting with the offset 'stream'.

Return the number of streams (possibly zero) that have been assigned. If there are PropagationLossModels chained together, this method will also assign streams to the downstream models.

Parameters
stream
Returns
the number of stream indices assigned by this model

Ptr< PropagationLossModel > ns3::PropagationLossModel::GetNext ( void  )

Gets the next PropagationLossModel in the chain of loss models that act on the signal.

Returns
The next PropagationLossModel in the chain

This method of chaining propagation loss models only works commutatively if the propagation loss of all models in the chain are independent of transmit power.
