Detailed Description

802.11 PHY layer model

This PHY implements a model of 802.11a. The model implemented here is based on the model described in "Yet Another Network Simulator", (http://cutebugs.net/files/wns2-yans.pdf).

This PHY model depends on a channel loss and delay model as provided by the ns3::PropagationLossModel and ns3::PropagationDelayModel classes, both of which are members of the ns3::YansWifiChannel class.

Parameters:

	packet	the packet to send
	mode	the transmission mode to use to send this packet
	preamble	the type of preamble to use to send this packet.
	txPowerLevel	a power level to use to send this packet. The real transmission power is calculated as txPowerMin + txPowerLevel * (txPowerMax - txPowerMin) / nTxLevels

void ns3::YansWifiPhy::SetChannelNumber

(

uint16_t

id

)

[virtual]

Set channel number.

where Starting channel frequency is standard-dependent, see SetStandard() as defined in IEEE 802.11-2007 17.3.8.3.2.

YansWifiPhy can switch among different channels. Basically, YansWifiPhy has a private attribute m_channelNumber that identifies the channel the PHY operates on. Channel switching cannot interrupt an ongoing transmission. When PHY is in TX state, the channel switching is postponed until the end of the current transmission. When the PHY is in RX state, the channel switching causes the drop of the synchronized packet.
