Notes:

  1. The state 'Start' is not included in MacState and only used for illustration purpose.
  2. The Unassociated state is a transient state before STA starts the scanning procedure which moves it into the Scanning state.
  3. In Scanning, STA is gathering beacon or probe response frames from APs, resulted in a list of candidate AP. After the timeout, it then tries to associate to the best AP, which is indicated by the Association Manager. STA will restart the scanning procedure if SetActiveProbing() called.
  4. In the case when AP responded to STA's association request with a refusal, STA will try to associate to the next best AP until the list of candidate AP is exhausted which sends STA to Refused state.
    • Note that this behavior is not currently tested since ns-3 does not implement association refusal at present.
  5. The transition from Wait Association Response to Unassociated occurs if an association request fails without explicit refusal (i.e., the AP fails to respond).
  6. The transition from Associated to Wait Association Response occurs when STA's PHY capabilities changed. In this state, STA tries to reassociate with the previously associated AP.
  7. The transition from Associated to Unassociated occurs if the number of missed beacons exceeds the threshold.

Config Paths

ns3::StaWifiMac is accessible through the following paths with Config::Set and Config::Connect:

  • "/NodeList/[i]/DeviceList/[i]/$ns3::WifiNetDevice/Mac/$ns3::StaWifiMac"

Attributes

  • ActiveProbing: If true, we send probe requests. If false, we don't.NOTE: if more than one STA in your simulation is using active probing, you should enable it at a different simulation time for each STA, otherwise all the STAs will start sending probes at the same time resulting in collisions. See bug 1060 for more info.

A link switching/swapping is notified by the EMLSR Manager and the Channel Access Manager (CAM) notifies us that a first PHY (i.e., the Main PHY) switches to Channel B. We connect the Main PHY to the MAC stack B:

   ┌───┬───┬───┐        ┌────┐       ┌───────┐

Link A │FEM│RSM│CAM│ ┌───►│Main├───┐ │Channel│ │ │ │ │ │ │PHY │ │ │ A │ └───┴───┴───┘ │ └────┘ │ └───────┘ │ │ ┌───┬───┬───┐ │ ┌────┐ │ ┌───────┐ Link B │FEM│RSM│CAM│◄──┘ │Aux │ └──►│Channel│ │ │ │ │◄─ ─ ─ ─│PHY ├──────►│ B │ └───┴───┴───┘INACTIVE└────┘ └───────┘

MAC stack B keeps a PHY listener associated with the Aux PHY, even though it is inactive, meaning that the PHY listener will only notify channel switches (no CCA, no RX). If the EMLSR Manager requested a link switching, this configuration will be kept until further requests. If the EMLSR Manager requested a link swapping, link B's CAM will be notified by its (inactive) PHY listener upon the channel switch performed by the Aux PHY. In this case, we remove the inactive PHY listener and connect the Aux PHY to MAC stack A:

◆ Receive()

void ns3::StaWifiMac::Receive ( Ptr< const WifiMpdu mpdu,
uint8_t  linkId 
)
overrideprivatevirtual

This method acts as the MacRxMiddle receive callback and is invoked to notify us that a frame has been received on the given link.

The implementation is intended to capture logic that is going to be common to all (or most) derived classes. Specifically, handling of Block Ack management frames is dealt with here.

This method will need, however, to be overridden by derived classes so that they can perform their data handling before invoking the base version.

The given link may be undefined in some cases (e.g., in case of QoS Data frames received in the context of a Block Ack agreement – because the BlockAckManager does not have to record the link each buffered MPDU has been received on); in such a cases, the value of linkId should be WIFI_LINKID_UNDEFINED.

Parameters
mpduthe MPDU that has been received.
linkIdthe ID of the given link
