Detailed Description

The Erlang distribution Random Number Generator (RNG) that allows stream numbers to be set deterministically.

This class supports the creation of objects that return random numbers from a fixed Erlang distribution. It also supports the generation of single random numbers from various Erlang distributions.

The Erlang distribution is a special case of the Gamma distribution where $k = \alpha > 0 $ is a positive definite integer. Erlang distributed variables can be generated using a much faster algorithm than Gamma variables.

The probability distribution is defined in terms two parameters, the K or shape parameter $ \in {1,2 \dots} $, and the Lambda or scale parameter $ \in (0,1] $. (Note the Wikipedia entry for the Erlang Distribution uses the parameters $(k, \lambda)$ or $(k, \beta)$. The parameters used here $(k, \lambda)_{\mbox{ns-3}}$ correspond to $(k, \frac{1}{\lambda} = \beta)_{\mbox{Wikipedia}}$.)

The probability density function is:

\[
     P(x; k, \lambda) dx = \lambda^k \\
                           \frac{x^{k-1} e^{-\frac{x}{\lambda}}}{(k-1)!} dx, \\
         \quad x \in [0, +\infty)
  \]

with mean $ \mu = k \lambda $ and variance $ \sigma^2 = k \lambda^2 $.

The Erlang RNG value $x$ is generated by

\[
     x = - \lambda \sum_{i = 1}^{k}{\ln u_i}
  \]

where the $u_i$ are $k$ uniform random variables on [0,1).

Example

Here is an example of how to use this class:

uint32_t k = 5;
double lambda = 2.0;
x->SetAttribute ("K", IntegerValue (k));
x->SetAttribute ("Lambda", DoubleValue (lambda));
double value = x->GetValue ();
This class can be used to hold variables of floating point type such as 'double' or 'float'.
Definition double.h:31
Hold a signed integer type.
Definition integer.h:34
Smart pointer class similar to boost::intrusive_ptr.
Ptr< T > CreateObject(Args &&... args)
Create an object by type, with varying number of constructor parameters.
Definition object.h:619
Antithetic Values.

If an instance of this RNG is configured to return antithetic values, the actual value returned, $x'$, is generated as follows:

\[
     x' = - \lambda \sum_{i = 1}^{k}{\ln (1 - u_i)}
  \]

which now involves the log of the distance $u$ is from 1.
