Compound Module BaseStationNetwork

File: networks/baseStationNet/BaseStationNetwork.ned

A WLAN like base station controlled network

A network consisting of a base station and numClients clients. The base station is fixed and the clients move around. The base station periodically polls all reachable clients in a round robin manner

Usage diagram:

The following diagram shows usage relationships between modules, networks and channels. Unresolved module (and channel) types are missing from the diagram. Click here to see the full picture.

Contains the following modules:

If a module type shows up more than once, that means it has been defined in more than one NED file.

BaseStationHost	The BaseStationHost is a compound module that implements a test base station. The test base station contains the PollApplLayer which periodically polls all clients in the network.
ClientHost	The ClientHost is a compound module that implements a very simple mobile client. It only consists of basic modules and the ClientApplLayer.
ChannelControl	(unknown -- not in documented files)

Networks:

baseStationSim

example centralized base station network simulation for the Mobility Framework
