SlidingWindowRateMeter

simple module

This module attaches a RateTag to each packet specifying the datarate and packetrate of the received stream of packets. The algorithm takes packets into account only in the given time window.

Inheritance diagram

The following diagram shows inheritance relationships for this type. Unresolved types are missing from the diagram.

Extends

Name	Type	Description
PacketMeterBase	simple module	This is a base module for various packet meter modules. Derived modules must implement a single meterPacket() function which meters the flow of and attaches the required tags.

Parameters

Name	Type	Default value	Description
displayStringTextFormat	string	"metered %p pk (%l)"	determines the text that is written on top of the submodule
timeWindow	double		amount of time to look back from the current simulation time
