Description

ExtUpperIeee80211Interface

compound module

Provides an IEEE 802.11 network interface suitable for emulation. The upper part of the network interface is realized in the real world using a real TAP device of the host computer which is running the simulation.

AckingWirelessInterface

compound module

Implements a highly abstracted wireless network interface (NIC) that uses a trivial MAC protocol. It offers simplicity for scenarios where Layer 1 and 2 effects can be completely ignored, for example testing the basic functionality of a wireless ad-hoc routing protocol.

BMacInterface

compound module

Implements a wireless network interface using the B-MAC protocol.

WirelessInterface

compound module

Implements a generic wireless network interface.

CsmaCaInterface

compound module

Module interface for CSMA/CA network interfaces.

Ieee80211Interface

compound module

Implements an IEEE 802.11 network interface. It implements a large subset of the IEEE 802.11 standard, and may use radio models and wireless signal representations of varying levels of detail. It is also extremely configurable, and its component structure makes it easy to experiment with various details of the protocol.

Ieee802154NarrowbandInterface

compound module

Implements an IEEE 802.15.4 narrowband network interface.

Ieee802154UwbIrInterface

compound module

Implements an IEEE 802.15.4 UWB-IR network interface.

LMacInterface

compound module

Implements a wireless network interface using the L-MAC protocol.

ShortcutInterface

compound module

Implements a simplistic network interface that uses a shortcut to the receiver at the MAC layer.

XMacInterface

compound module

Implements a wireless network interface using the X-MAC protocol.
