The question may refer to a half-duplex constraint on "real" single-channel radios that isn't respected by TypedAtomicActors. It sounds like your wireless sensor model has both input and output ports corresponding to the receive and transmit modes of the radio; to simulate half-duplex comms, you have to cache all of the tokens sent by each node so you can distinguish the ones sent by other nodes from the ones sent by the receiver, and delete the latter.
When an actor extending transmits a token from an output port in a wireless model, the associated WirelessChannel instance decides what ports will receive the token. The source for LimitedRangeChannel inherits from AtomicWirelessChannel, which will not forward the token to input ports with the same container as the output port that sent the token. That container check may be confused by your custom sensor implementation. You may want to try wrapping the TypedAtomicActor in a WirelessCompositeActor with "transmit" and "receive" ports corresponding to the input and output ports of the TypedAtomicActor.

The real world is not single threaded. When a radio sends out a message, the receivers all receive the message simultaneously. (This is not strictly true, since the receivers are different distances from the the transmitter, so they receive the messages at slightly different times, but for the sake of argument say that two receivers are the same distance from the transmitter.) I'm not that familiar with Visualsense, but you say that you have to cache all the messages. Why is that? Maybe looking at the wireless Small World demo would help? _Christopher -------- Dear Reader I have a simple question and are looking for simple answer for it. I do simulation with visual sense. I designed TypedAtomicActors as my sensors. My sensor can send and recieve Messages ( Packets ) using input and output ports. I also send message using LimitedRangeCannel. I noticed that when my sensor gives a message from input port and send a message in fire method from output port, i get sent message from input. My sensors get all messages that it send. In real world in single threading computation we don't have such situation. In My model, number of messages are very high and is difficult work that i cache all messages that i send and then search in fire method when i get an input message. what you suggest for me? with best regards Saeid pashazadeh ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- - Posted to the ptolemy-hackers mailing list.
