stochastic_HBH {hopbyhop}

Random Probabilities Monte Carlo transmissions/receptions simulations for a L-limited Hop by Hop model

Description

This function compute the mean of the number of transmissions/receptions for Hop by Hop model with L-limited retransmissions per packet simulating via Monte Carlo.

Usage

stochastic_HBH(dist1,p11,p12,dist2,p21,p22,L,N,M=10^5,printout=TRUE,plotspdf=TRUE)

Arguments

dist1

For the data success probability: probability density function. Options are "uniform" and "beta".

p11

For the data success probability: lower limit of the uniform distribution (dist1 == "uniform") or shape1 (alpha) paremHBHr of a Beta distribution (dist1 == "beta").

p12

For the data success probability: upper limit of the uniform distribution (dist1 == "uniform") or shape2 (beta) paremHBHr of a Beta distribution (dist1 == "beta").

dist2

For the ACK success probability: probability density function. Options are "uniform" and "beta".

p21

For the ACK success probability: lower limit of the uniform distribution (dist1 == "uniform") or shape1 (alpha) paremHBHr of a Beta distribution (dist1 == "beta").

p22

For the ACK success probability: upper limit of the uniform distribution (dist1 == "uniform") or shape2 (beta) paremHBHr of a Beta distribution (dist1 == "beta").

L
