NonQosRecoveryProcedure¶

Package: inet.linklayer.ieee80211.mac.originator

simple module NonQosRecoveryProcedure

Implements frame retransmission and recovery procedures for non-QoS frames in IEEE 802.11 networks. Manages short and long retry counters, adjusts contention window size based on transmission outcomes, and enforces retry limits. Handles different retry procedures for frames below and above the RTS threshold as specified in IEEE 802.11 standard section 9.19.2.6.

Used in compound modules¶

Name	Type	Description
Edca	compound module	Implements EDCA (Enhanced Distributed Channel Access) for IEEE 802.11. The implementation allows for a configurable number of access categories, not just four as defined by the standard.
Dcf	compound module	Implements the DCF (Distributed Coordination Function) for IEEE 802.11.

Extends¶

Name	Type	Description
SimpleModule	simple module	Base module for all INET simple modules.

Parameters¶

Name	Type	Default value	Description
