Product modules provide value-added capabilities to OPNET's intelligent network management software. Modules span a wide range of applications and receive regular updates under OPNET's maintenance program.


Building on the capabilities of OPNET's Wireless Module, the Terrain Modeling Module provides the next level of accuracy and control for wireless network design and planning. This module allows you to model environmental effects on wireless network communications anywhere.

Featuring an open-source Longley-Rice model, the Terrain Modeling Module is ready to replicate any known atmospheric or topological conditions and their combined impact on signal propagation. Create elevation maps, line-of-sight profiles, and signal-power comparisons of mobile network models. Interfaces to read DTED and USGS DEM terrain data are provided. Open and flexible, the Terrain Modeling Module is supported by the standard Radio Transceiver Pipeline, which enables easy implementation of custom propagation models.

 




The High-Level Architecture (HLA) Module supports building and running a federation of many simulators, each modeling some aspect of a composite system. The OPNET HLA Module enables OPNET simulations to model some portion (or the entirety) of the communications aspects of the HLA federation models. The OPNET-HLA interface provides the various simulators (federates) the necessary mechanisms to share a common object representation (for persistent elements), to exchange messages (interactions), and to maintain appropriate time synchronization. The module supports a large subset of the HLA interface, including:

Time management such that an OPNET simulation remains synchronized with overall HLA time
Generation and reception of RTI interactions using OPNET packet
Creation, destruction, or discovery of RTI objects during the simulation
Generation of RTI object attribute updates based on changes to OPNET attribute values
Automatic updates of OPNET attributes upon reception of RTI object attribute updates
A user-defined mapping specifying the relation between RTI and OPNET objects
The appropriate set of attributes

 

 


*** NOTE: The OPNET HLA Module has been validated for use with the following HLA RTIs:

MÄK RTI 2.0.3 or 2.1 (HLA Interface Specification 1.3), http://www.mak.com/rti.htm

DMSO's HLA RTI 1.3NGv6"
