Member Function Documentation

◆ DelayedInstall()

void ns3::RadioEnvironmentMapHelper::DelayedInstall ( )
private

Scheduled by Install() to perform the actual generation of map.

If control channel is used for SINR calculation (the default), the delay is 2.6 milliseconds from the start of simulation. Otherwise, if data channel is used, the delay is 500.1 milliseconds from the start of simulation.

The method will divide the whole map into parts (each contains at most a certain number of SINR listening points), and then call RunOneIteration() on each part, one by one.

◆ DoDispose()

void ns3::RadioEnvironmentMapHelper::DoDispose ( void  )
virtual

Destructor implementation.

This method is called by Dispose() or by the Object's destructor, whichever comes first.

Subclasses are expected to implement their real destruction code in an overridden version of this method and chain up to their parent's implementation once they are done. i.e, for simplicity, the destructor of every subclass should be empty and its content should be moved to the associated DoDispose() method.

It is safe to call GetObject() from within this method.

Reimplemented from ns3::Object.
