Method Summary

void	endReceive(java.lang.Double power) End message reception.
void	endTransmit() End message transmission.
void	receive(Message msg, java.lang.Double power, java.lang.Long duration) Start receiving message.
void	setSleepMode(boolean sleep) Put radio you in sleep/awake mode.
void	transmit(Message msg, long delay, long duration) Start transmitting message.

Method Detail

transmit

void transmit(Message msg,
              long delay,
              long duration)

Start transmitting message. Puts radio into transmission mode and contacts other radios that receive the signal. Called from mac entity.

Parameters:

msg - message object to transmit

delay - time to the wire

duration - time on the wire

endTransmit

void endTransmit()

End message transmission. Putting the radio back into idle (or possibly receiving) mode. Called from mac entity.

receive

void receive(Message msg,
             java.lang.Double power,
             java.lang.Long duration)

Start receiving message. Puts radio into receive or sensing mode depending on the message power and the state of the radio. A radio that is currently transmitting will ignore incoming messages. Called from field entity.

Parameters:

msg - incoming message

power - signal strength of incoming message (units: mW)

duration - time until end of transmission (units: simtime)

endReceive

void endReceive(java.lang.Double power)

End message reception. Puts the radio back into sensing or idle mode, and sends the received message to upper layers for processing, if no error has occurred during the reception. Called from field entity.

Parameters:

power - signal strength of incoming message (units: mW)

setSleepMode

void setSleepMode(boolean sleep)

Put radio you in sleep/awake mode.

Parameters:

sleep - sleep/awake switch
