◆ Aggregate()

void ns3::MpduAggregator::Aggregate ( Ptr< const WifiMacQueueItem mpdu,
Ptr< Packet ampdu,
bool  isSingle 
)
static

Aggregate an MPDU to an A-MPDU.

Parameters
mpduthe MPDU.
ampduthe A-MPDU.
isSinglewhether it is a single MPDU.

◆ CalculatePadding()

uint8_t ns3::MpduAggregator::CalculatePadding ( uint32_t  ampduSize)
static
Parameters
ampduSizethe size of the A-MPDU that needs to be padded in bytes
Returns
the size of the padding that must be added to the end of an A-MPDU in bytes

Calculates how much padding must be added to the end of an A-MPDU of the given size (once another MPDU is aggregated). Each A-MPDU subframe is padded so that its length is multiple of 4 octets.

◆ DoDispose()

void ns3::MpduAggregator::DoDispose ( void  )
overrideprotectedvirtual

Destructor implementation.

This method is called by Dispose() or by the Object's destructor, whichever comes first.

Subclasses are expected to implement their real destruction code in an overridden version of this method and chain up to their parent's implementation once they are done. i.e, for simplicity, the destructor of every subclass should be empty and its content should be moved to the associated DoDispose() method.

It is safe to call GetObject() from within this method.

Reimplemented from ns3::Object.

◆ GetAmpduSubframeHeader()

Parameters
mpduSizesize of the MPDU in bytes.
isSingletrue if S-MPDU.
Returns
the A-MPDU subframe header

Determine the maximum size for an A-MPDU of the given TID that can be sent to the given receiver when using the given modulation class.

Parameters
recipientthe receiver station address.
tidthe TID.
modulationthe modulation class.
Returns
the maximum A-MPDU size in bytes.

◆ GetNextAmpdu()

std::vector< Ptr< WifiMacQueueItem > > ns3::MpduAggregator::GetNextAmpdu ( Ptr< WifiMacQueueItem mpdu,
WifiTxParameters txParams,
Time  availableTime,
WifiMacQueueItem::QueueIteratorPair  queueIt 
) const

Attempt to aggregate other MPDUs to the given MPDU, while meeting the following constraints:

  • the size of the resulting A-MPDU does not exceed the maximum A-MPDU size as determined for the modulation class indicated by the given TxVector
  • the time to transmit the resulting PPDU, according to the given TxVector, does not exceed the maximum PPDU duration allowed by the corresponding modulation class (if any)
  • the time to transmit the resulting PPDU and to carry out protection and acknowledgment, as specified by the given TX parameters, does not exceed the given available time (if distinct from Time::Min ())

For now, only non-broadcast QoS Data frames can be aggregated (do not pass other types of frames to this method). MPDUs to aggregate are looked for among those with the same TID and receiver as the given MPDU.

The resulting A-MPDU is returned as a vector of the constituent MPDUs (including the given MPDU), which are not actually aggregated (call the Aggregate method afterwards to get the actual A-MPDU). If aggregation was not possible (aggregation is disabled, there is no Block Ack agreement established with the receiver, or another MPDU to aggregate was not found), the returned vector is empty.

Parameters
mpduthe given MPDU.
txParamsthe TX parameters used to transmit the frame
availableTimethe time available for the frame exchange
queueItthe QueueIteratorPair pointing to the queue item from which the search for an MPDU starts, if the QueueIteratorPair is valid
Returns
the resulting A-MPDU, if aggregation is possible.
