Detailed Description

A log distance path loss propagation model with three distance fields.

This model is the same as ns3::LogDistancePropagationLossModel except that it has three distance fields: near, middle and far with different exponents.

Within each field the reception power is calculated using the log-distance propagation equation:

\[ L = L_0 + 10 \cdot n_0 log_{10}(\frac{d}{d_0})\]

Each field begins where the previous ends and all together form a continuous function.

There are three valid distance fields: near, middle, far. Actually four: the first from 0 to the reference distance is invalid and returns txPowerDbm.

\[ \underbrace{0 \cdots\cdots}_{=0} \underbrace{d_0 \cdots\cdots}_{n_0} \underbrace{d_1 \cdots\cdots}_{n_1} \underbrace{d_2 \cdots\cdots}_{n_2} \infty \]

Complete formula for the path loss in dB:

\[\displaystyle L = \begin{cases} 0 & d < d_0 \\ L_0 + 10 \cdot n_0 \log_{10}(\frac{d}{d_0}) & d_0 \leq d < d_1 \\ L_0 + 10 \cdot n_0 \log_{10}(\frac{d_1}{d_0}) + 10 \cdot n_1 \log_{10}(\frac{d}{d_1}) & d_1 \leq d < d_2 \\ L_0 + 10 \cdot n_0 \log_{10}(\frac{d_1}{d_0}) + 10 \cdot n_1 \log_{10}(\frac{d_2}{d_1}) + 10 \cdot n_2 \log_{10}(\frac{d}{d_2})& d_2 \leq d \end{cases}\]

where:

  • $ L $ : resulting path loss (dB)
  • $ d $ : distance (m)
  • $ d_0, d_1, d_2 $ : three distance fields (m)
  • $ n_0, n_1, n_2 $ : path loss distance exponent for each field (unitless)
  • $ L_0 $ : path loss at reference distance (dB)

When the path loss is requested at a distance smaller than the reference distance $ d_0 $, the tx power (with no path loss) is returned. The reference distance defaults to 1m and reference loss defaults to ns3::FriisPropagationLossModel with 5.15 GHz and is thus $ L_0 $ = 46.67 dB.
