bufferLossRatio probe

Hi,

please remove the SettlingTimeGuard and Separate generators and try
again. If it works then see if either the settling time is to high or
the probed MAC.Id is wrong (staIDs contains wrong entries).

Greats,

Maciej

the results are still the same

I wonder whether there is requirement to add some code in WiFi
Buffer.cpp corresponding to the

void Buffer::periodically() in
'framework/library/src/ldk/buffer/Buffer.cpp'.

Btw, I have tried with Buffer size probe which works.

----
openwns.Buffer.Buffer.sizeProbeName = "wifimac.BufferSize"
node = openwns.evaluation.createSourceNode(WNS,
openwns.Buffer.Buffer.sizeProbeName)
node.getLeafs().appendChildren(openwns.evaluation.generators.SettlingTimeGuard(settlingTime))
node.getLeafs().appendChildren(openwns.evaluation.generators.Separate(by
= 'MAC.Id', forAll = staIDs, format = 'Node%d'))
#node.getLeafs().appendChildren(openwns.evaluation.generators.PDF(minXValue
= 0.0, maxXValue = 5.0, resolution = 5000))
node.getLeafs().appendChildren(openwns.evaluation.generators.TimeSeries())

Hi,

it could be you accidentally changed the "droppedPDUWindowDuration"
parameter of the buffer. Default is to probe every 0.1 seconds the
average over the last 0.2 seconds (droppedPDUWindowDuration). Try to
output _config.get<double>("droppedPDUWindowDuration") in the
constructor of Buffer.cpp (libwns) and see what it says.

Greats,

Maciej
