Detailed Description

AMRR Rate control algorithm.

This class implements the AMRR rate control algorithm which was initially described in IEEE 802.11 Rate Adaptation: A Practical Approach, by M. Lacage, M.H. Manshaei, and T. Turletti.


Member Function Documentation

static TypeId ns3::AmrrWifiManager::GetTypeId ( void   )  [static]

This method returns the TypeId associated to ns3::AmrrWifiManager.

This object is accessible through the following paths with Config::Set and Config::Connect:

  • /NodeList/[i]/DeviceList/[i]/$ns3::WifiNetDevice/RemoteStationManager/$ns3::AmrrWifiManager
Attributes defined for this type:
  • UpdatePeriod: The interval between decisions about rate control changes
    • Set with class: TimeValue
    • Underlying type: Time
    • Initial value: 1000000000ns
    • Flags: construct write read
  • FailureRatio: Ratio of minimum erronous transmissions needed to switch to a lower rate
    • Set with class: ns3::DoubleValue
    • Underlying type: double 0:1
    • Initial value: 0.333333
    • Flags: construct write read
  • SuccessRatio: Ratio of maximum erronous transmissions needed to switch to a higher rate
  • MaxSuccessThreshold: Maximum number of consecutive success periods needed to switch to a higher rate
  • MinSuccessThreshold: Minimum number of consecutive success periods needed to switch to a higher rate
Attributes defined in parent class ns3::WifiRemoteStationManager:
  • IsLowLatency: If true, we attempt to modelize a so-called low-latency device: a device where decisions about tx parameters can be made on a per-packet basis and feedback about the transmission of each packet is obtained before sending the next. Otherwise, we modelize a high-latency device, that is a device where we cannot update our decision about tx parameters after every packet transmission.
    • Set with class: BooleanValue
    • Underlying type: bool
    • Initial value: true
    • Flags: construct write read
  • MaxSsrc: The maximum number of retransmission attempts for an RTS. This value will not have any effect on some rate control algorithms.
  • MaxSlrc: The maximum number of retransmission attempts for a DATA packet. This value will not have any effect on some rate control algorithms.
  • RtsCtsThreshold: If a data packet is bigger than this value, we use an RTS/CTS handshake before sending the data. This value will not have any effect on some rate control algorithms.
  • FragmentationThreshold: If a data packet is bigger than this value, we fragment it such that the size of the fragments are equal or smaller than this value. This value will not have any effect on some rate control algorithms.
  • NonUnicastMode: Wifi mode used for non-unicast transmissions.
    • Set with class: WifiModeValue
    • Underlying type: WifiMode
    • Initial value: Invalid-WifiMode
    • Flags: construct write read
No TraceSources defined for this type.
