Detailed Description

refer to 1609.4-2010 chapter 6.4 Vendor Specific Action (VSA) frames transmission.

The channel interval and channel number indicating how to transmit VSA frames. However making the VSA transmitted strictly in required channel interval and channel number is hard to achieve. For example, if current channel is assigned “Alternating Access” and higher layer wants VSA transmitted only in CCHI (VSA_TRANSMIT_IN_CCHI), but when packet is dequeued from the internal queue of MAC layer in SCHI and can contend for channel access, how to deal with this case? Reinserting into the head of the queue and dequeuing the second packet is not a good choice, because it will require queue traversal. Reinserting the packet into the tail of the queue is worse, because it will make queue not in order. And both solutions may affect many MAC classes of Wifi module. Current approach is to guarantee packets can be inserted into the MAC internal queue strictly in channel interval and channel number required by higher layers. This solution will result in high probability that packets will be sent in channel interval as higher layer wants, while some packet may be sent practically in other channel interval that not follows the requirement of higher layer request due to queue delay of MAC layer. Therefore, we suggest users assign alternating access for sending VSAs in CCH Interval (VSA_TRANSMIT_IN_CCHI) or SCH Interval (VSA_TRANSMIT_IN_SCHI), and assign continuous access or extended access for sending VSAs in both interval (VSA_TRANSMIT_IN_BOTHI) to avoid the above cases.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ VsaManager()

ns3::VsaManager::VsaManager ( void )

Definition at line 48 of file vsa-manager.cc.

Member Function Documentation

◆ DoDispose()

void ns3::VsaManager::DoDispose ( void )

privatevirtual

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.

Definition at line 60 of file vsa-manager.cc.

References m_device, NS_LOG_FUNCTION, and RemoveAll().

◆ DoInitialize()

void ns3::VsaManager::DoInitialize ( void )

privatevirtual

Initialize() implementation.

This method is called only once by Initialize(). If the user calls Initialize() multiple times, DoInitialize() is called only the first time.

Subclasses are expected to override this method and chain up to their parent's implementation once they are done. It is safe to call GetObject() and AggregateObject() from within this method.
