PhysicalLayerBase¶

Package: inet.physicallayer.wireless.common.base.packetlevel

simple module PhysicalLayerBase

Module base for different physical layers.

Inheritance diagram¶

Known subclasses¶

Name	Type	Description
Radio	compound module	The radio model describes the physical device that is capable of transmitting and receiving signals on the medium. It contains an antenna model, a transmitter model, a receiver model, and an energy consumer model.
ShortcutRadio	simple module	Implements a simple shortcut to peer radio protocol that completely bypasses the physical medium. This radio module directly sends packets to the other radio module without any physical layer processing in the radio medium. Packets received from the upper layer protocols may be lost. Physical layer overhead is simply simulated by physical header bits, preamble transmission duration, and a propagation delay.

Extends¶

Name	Type	Description
LayeredProtocolBase	simple module	Module base for different layered protocols.

Parameters¶

Name	Type	Default value	Description
displayStringTextFormat	string	“”	Determines the text that is written on top of the submodule, supports displaying pars, watches, and module-specific information
