Detailed Description

Gauss-Markov mobility model.

This is a 3D version of the Gauss-Markov mobility model described in [1]. Unlike the other mobility models in ns-3, which are memoryless, the Gauss Markov model has both memory and variability. The tunable alpha parameter determines the how much memory and randomness you want to model. Each object starts with a specific velocity, direction (radians), and pitch angle (radians) equivalent to the mean velocity, direction, and pitch. At each timestep, a new velocity, direction, and pitch angle are generated based upon the previous value, the mean value, and a gaussian random variable. This version is suited for simple airplane flight, where direction, velocity, and pitch are the key variables. The motion field is limited by a 3D bounding box (called "box") which is a 3D version of the "rectangle" field that is used in 2-dimensional ns-3 mobility models.

Here is an example of how to implement the model and set the initial node positions:

MobilityHelper mobility;
 
mobility.SetMobilityModel ("ns3::GaussMarkovMobilityModel",
  "Bounds", BoxValue (Box (0, 150000, 0, 150000, 0, 10000)),
  "TimeStep", TimeValue (Seconds (0.5)),
  "Alpha", DoubleValue (0.85),
  "MeanVelocity", StringValue ("ns3::UniformRandomVariable[Min=800|Max=1200]"),
  "MeanDirection", StringValue ("ns3::UniformRandomVariable[Min=0|Max=6.283185307]"),
  "MeanPitch", StringValue ("ns3::UniformRandomVariable[Min=0.05|Max=0.05]"),
  "NormalVelocity", StringValue ("ns3::NormalRandomVariable[Mean=0.0|Variance=0.0|Bound=0.0]"),
  "NormalDirection", StringValue ("ns3::NormalRandomVariable[Mean=0.0|Variance=0.2|Bound=0.4]"),
  "NormalPitch", StringValue ("ns3::NormalRandomVariable[Mean=0.0|Variance=0.02|Bound=0.04]"));
 
mobility.SetPositionAllocator ("ns3::RandomBoxPositionAllocator",
  "X", StringValue ("ns3::UniformRandomVariable[Min=0|Max=150000]"),
  "Y", StringValue ("ns3::UniformRandomVariable[Min=0|Max=150000]"),
  "Z", StringValue ("ns3::UniformRandomVariable[Min=0|Max=10000]"));
 
mobility.Install (wifiStaNodes);

Member Function Documentation

◆ DoAssignStreams()

int64_t ns3::GaussMarkovMobilityModel::DoAssignStreams ( int64_t start )

overrideprivatevirtual

The default implementation does nothing but return the passed-in parameter.

Subclasses using random variables are expected to override this.

Parameters

start starting stream index

Returns: the number of streams used

Reimplemented from ns3::MobilityModel.

Definition at line 238 of file gauss-markov-mobility-model.cc.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ DoDispose()

void ns3::GaussMarkovMobilityModel::DoDispose ( void )

overrideprivatevirtual

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.
