A pathloss event specifies the pathloss in decibels.
When used with EMANE's Universal PHY, you would set the _pathloss mode_ to _*pathloss*_.
A pathloss event specifies the pathloss in decibels (dB).
When used with EMANE's Universal PHY, you would set the _pathloss mode_ to _*pathloss*_. When pathloss mode is used, the location of a node no longer determines connectivity.
A packet received in EMANE has the following received power calculation, that determines whether or not the packet will be dropped:
_Rx Power (dBm) = Tx Power (dBm) + Tx Antenna Gain (dBi) + Rx Antenna Gain (dBi) - *Pathloss (dB)*_
The fields for pathloss events are: _time, source NEM ID, "pathloss", destination NEM ID,pathloss-value_.
Multiple destination NEM IDs may be specified. The example below shows three NEMs, with each line specifying two destination NEMs. Note that loss can be asymmetrical.
