◆ Box() [1/2]

ns3::Box::Box ( double  _xMin,
double  _xMax,
double  _yMin,
double  _yMax,
double  _zMin,
double  _zMax 
)
Parameters
_xMinx coordinates of left boundary.
_xMaxx coordinates of right boundary.
_yMiny coordinates of bottom boundary.
_yMaxy coordinates of top boundary.
_zMinz coordinates of down boundary.
_zMaxz coordinates of up boundary.

Create a box.

◆ Box() [2/2]

ns3::Box::Box ( )

Create a zero-sized box located at coordinates (0.0,0.0,0.0)

Definition at line 43 of file box.cc.

Member Function Documentation

◆ CalculateIntersection()

Vector ns3::Box::CalculateIntersection ( const Vector &  current,
const Vector &  speed 
) const
Parameters
currentthe current position
speedthe current speed
Returns
the intersection point between the rectangle and the current+speed vector.

This method assumes that the current position is located inside the cube and checks for this with an assert. This method compares only the x and y coordinates of the input position and speed. It ignores the z coordinate.

◆ GetClosestSide()

Box::Side ns3::Box::GetClosestSide ( const Vector &  position) const
Parameters
positionthe position to test.
Returns
the side of the cube the input position is closest to.

This method compares the x, y, and z coordinates of the input position.

Definition at line 61 of file box.cc.

References BOTTOM, DOWN, LEFT, min, RIGHT, TOP, UP, xMax, yMax, and zMax.

◆ IsInside()

bool ns3::Box::IsInside ( const Vector &  position) const
Parameters
positionthe position to test.
Returns
true if the input position is located within the box, false otherwise.

This method compares the x, y, and z coordinates of the input position.

◆ IsIntersect()

bool ns3::Box::IsIntersect ( const Vector &  l1,
const Vector &  l2 
) const

Checks if a line-segment between position l1 and position l2 intersects a box.

This method considers all the three coordinates, i.e., x, y, and z. This function was developed by NYU Wireless and is based on the algorithm described here http://www.3dkingdoms.com/weekly/weekly.php?a=21.

Parameters
l1position
l2position
Returns
true if there is a intersection, false otherwise
