Uniform_PulseTrain


File: general_blocks/Traffic_Generators/Uniform_Pulsetrain.sim
Description
The model generates a series of Trigger signals with a constant inter-pulse time.
The first output occurs when the simulation clock value equals of the Init_Time
parameter. Each succeeding Trigger output will occur after a delay which is
specified by the InterPulse_Time parameter. The model will cease generating
output signals when TNow reaches the value of the Stop_Time parameter.

Poisson_PulseTrain


File: general_blocks/Traffic_Generators/Poisson_PulseTrain.sim
Description
The model generate a series of Trigger signals with an exponentially distributed  inter-pulse time. The first output occurs when the simulation clock value equals of the Init_Time parameter. After this first pulse, the time between pulses is an exponentially distributed random variable with a mean value set by the parameter mean. No pulses will be output after the simulation clock reaches the Stop_Time.
Description of seed parameters:
seed = -2 Get random number from the Global Random Number Generator (part of Central Utilities)
seed >= 0 Generate and use a private random number, with +1 as the seed
seed < 0 (but not -2) Generate and use a private random number, with the number provided as the seed

Description
The model generates a user defined series of Trigger signals. The simulation times at which
the triggers occur are read from a file.

Enabled_Uniform_PulseTrain


File: general_blocks/Traffic_Generators/Enabled_Uniform_PulseTrain.sim
Description
The model generates a series of Trigger signals with a constant inter-pulse time. It allows the designer to choose between five different interfaces for enabling and disabling the pulse train: four interfaces consisting of combinations of wired and wireless start and stop signals 1> a "wireless" (synchron-based) interface, 2> a two pin interface (Start and Stop pins) 3> a one pin interface (inputs to the Start pin toggle the state between enabled and disabled), 4> a StartWireless, stop wired interface, and 5> a StartWired, stop wireless interface. At startup, it waits until Init_Time, and then, depending upon the chosen interface, waits for an appropriate signal to start. Once the start signal occurs, pulse generation begins. One pulse is output immediately. Each succeeding Trigger output occurs after a delay which is specified by the InterPulse_Time parameter. Simultaneously, the model waits for the occurance of a stop signal; when it is received, pulse generation is disabled until another start signal is received. The model may be started and stopped as required. The model will cease generating output signals when TNow reaches the value of the Stop_Time parameter.

Enabled_Poisson_PulseTrain


File: general_blocks/Traffic_Generators/Enabled_Poisson_PulseTrain.sim
Description
The model generate a series of Trigger signals with an exponentially distributed inter-pulse time. At startup, it waits until Init_Time, and then waits for the specified alarm to occur. Once the alarm occurs, pulse generation begins. The first output is generated. After this first pulse, the time between pulses is an exponentially distributed random variable with a mean value set by the parameter mean. No pulses will be output after the simulation clock reaches the Stop_Time.

Enabled_PulseTrain


File: general_blocks/Traffic_Generators/Enabled_PulseTrain.sim
Description
The model generates pulses with distribution statistics which are specified by a parameter. The desigher can specify a Periodic (pulses generated at a fixed period), Uniform (pulses generated at random times with a Uniform distribution), or Poisson (pulses at random times with an exponential distribution). The designer may also choose between five different interfaces for enabling and disabling the pulse train: four interfaces consisting of combinations of wired and wireless start and stop signals 1> a "wireless" (synchron-based) interface, 2> a two pin interface (Start and Stop pins) 3> a one pin interface (inputs to the Start pin toggle the state between enabled and disabled), 4> a StartWireless, stop wired interface, and 5> a StartWired, stop wireless interface. At startup, it waits until Init_Time, and then, depending upon the chosen interface, waits for an appropriate signal to start. Once the start signal occurs, pulse generation begins. One pulse is output immediately. Each succeeding Trigger output occurs after a delay calculated according to the Generator-Type parameter. Simultaneously, the model waits for the occurance of a stop signal; when it is received, pulse generation is disabled until another start signal is received. The model may be started and stopped as required. The model will cease generating output signals when TNow reaches the value of the Stop_Time parameter.
