  • Set with class: ns3::UintegerValue
  • Underlying type: uint32_t 0:4294967295
  • Initial value: 60
  • Flags: construct write read

Attributes defined in parent class ns3::ArfWifiManager:

• TimerThreshold: The 'timer' threshold in the ARF algorithm.
  • Set with class: ns3::UintegerValue
  • Underlying type: uint32_t 0:4294967295
  • Initial value: 15
  • Flags: construct write read
• SuccessThreshold: The minimum number of sucessfull transmissions to try a new rate.
  • Set with class: ns3::UintegerValue
  • Underlying type: uint32_t 0:4294967295
  • Initial value: 10
  • Flags: construct write read

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.
  • Set with class: ns3::UintegerValue
  • Underlying type: uint32_t 0:4294967295
  • Initial value: 7
  • Flags: construct write read
• MaxSlrc: The maximum number of retransmission attempts for a DATA packet. This value will not have any effect on some rate control algorithms.
  • Set with class: ns3::UintegerValue
  • Underlying type: uint32_t 0:4294967295
  • Initial value: 7
  • Flags: construct write read
• 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.
  • Set with class: ns3::UintegerValue
  • Underlying type: uint32_t 0:4294967295
  • Initial value: 1500
  • Flags: construct write read
• 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.
  • Set with class: ns3::UintegerValue
  • Underlying type: uint32_t 0:4294967295
  • Initial value: 1500
  • Flags: construct write read
• NonUnicastMode: Wifi mode used for non-unicast transmissions.
  • Set with class: WifiModeValue
  • Underlying type: WifiMode
  • Initial value: Invalid-WifiMode
  • Flags: construct write read
