[Tinyos-help] RadioBackoff.setInitialBackoff(...)

[Ruben Catteeuw]

Hi again,

Another think i can't figure out is the unit of this parameter.
The RadioBackoff interface says: "the amount of time in some unspecified units".
What defines this unit and what are the boundary values?

Thanks again

Ruben

Hi,


I'm using the setInitialBackoff call in this event:

async event void RadioBackoff.requestInitialBackoff(message_t *msg){ 
        if(useCustomBackoffs==TRUE) call RadioBackoff.setInitialBackoff(initialBackoff);      
}

Is the value for initialBackoff now an absolute value or does this parameter define an interval from which a random value will be chosen?



Thanks a lot!

Ruben
