Detailed Description

Energy source base class.

This is the base class for energy sources. Energy sources keep track of remaining energy. Device energy models will be updating the remaining energy in the energy source. The energy source itself does not update the remaining energy. Energy source also keeps a list of device energy models installed on the same node. When the remaining energy level reaches 0, the energy source will notify all device energy models stored in the list.

EnergySource provides 2 types of interfaces for DeviceEnergyModels to update the remaining energy stored in EnergySource: -Direct energy update interface (Joules): DecreaseRemainingEnergy IncreaseRemainingEnergy -Indirect energy update interface (Current): UpdateEnergySource Direct energy update interface will decrease/increase energy from the source directly (in Joules). Direct energy update interface is typically used by simple DeviceEnergyModel which knows only average power consumption for each of its state. Indirect energy update interface uses the total current cumulated from all DeviceEnergyModel to calculate energy to decrease from the source. Indirect energy update interface is typically used by DeviceEnergyModel who knows its current draw for each of its states. Nonlinear EnergySource also uses this interface.

Unit of energy is chosen as Joules since energy models typically calculate energy as (time in seconds * power in Watts). If the energy source stores energy in different units (eg. kWh), a simple converter function should suffice.

◆ BreakDeviceEnergyModelRefCycle()

void ns3::energy::EnergySource::BreakDeviceEnergyModelRefCycle ( )
protected

This function is called to break reference cycle between EnergySource and DeviceEnergyModel.

Child of the EnergySource base class must call this function in their implementation of DoDispose to make sure the reference cycle is broken.

Normally this work will be completed by the DoDispose function. However it will be overridden in the child class. Hence we introduced this function.
