Request: Control Multiple Antennas per-node using EEL Script #221

Open gorgonaut04 opened 2 years ago

gorgonaut04 commented 2 years ago

I am using EEL scripts to orchestrate an EMANE simulation, which is also partially configured within CORE and then 3D-visualized in SDT3D. I need to support multiple antennas per node, each with their own network interface. I see that unfortunately the antennaprofile EEL statement only supports 1 antenna per node. I am asking the following:

  1. Is it planned to enhance the antennaprofile statement (and perhaps XML config files) to support multiple antennas?
  2. Is there an alternative way to achieve my goal? I see that there are references to a C++-like MIMO API, but I'm not really sure where I would add such API calls. Maybe make custom mods to CORE source code? Or modify the EMANE EEL Parser to handle custom antennaprofile statements?
