Simple Module BaseWorldUtility

Package: org.mixim.base.modules
File: base/modules/BaseWorldUtility.ned

Basic utility module for the whole network. Provides utility methods and information used by the whole network as well as simulation wide black board functionality.

Extends:

Blackboard (simple module)

Provides black board like information exchange

Known subclasses:

WorldUtilityStats (simple module)

Tracks simulation wide traffic statistics

Networks:

AnalogueModels (network)	This example shows how to use AnalogueModels.
BaseMoBANNetwork (network)	This network is exactly the same as baseNetwork existing among the examples of MiXiM, but the desired number of MoBAN coordinator modules have been added. Some nodes of type BaseNode use MoBANLocal module as their mobility module. Then those nodes will be considered as WBAN nodes. Those node have a parameter named "coordinatorIndex" that determines to which WBAN (coordinator) the node belongs.
BaseNetwork (network)	This example shows the basic structure of an network using MiXiM.
BMAC (network)	(no description)
CSMAMac (network)	This example shows how to use MiXiMs CSMA protocol implementation.
ieee802154a (network)	This example illustrates the use of the IEEE 802.15.4A UWB-IR simulation model implemented in MiXiM. The omnetpp.ini files comprises two scenarios. Both scenarios involve only two hosts.
LMAC (network)	(no description)
Mac80211 (network)	This example shows how to use MiXiMs 802.11 protocol implementation.
MultiConnectionManager (network)	This example shows how to use multiple ConnectionManagers in your simulation.
WSNRouting (network)	This example shows how to simulate wireless sensor networks. Three different routing protocols are considered, for different traffic types: convergecast, with Wiseroute; network-level broadcast, with flooding; and probabilistic broadcast.
