A18.3 DEVELOP A PLUGIN

We want to develop a PMP that calculates the path loss as an increasing function starting from 0 (when the distance is 0) and growing towards infinity at the square of the distance times a distribution given as input by the user.  In pseudo code something like the following:

path loss = dist(tx, rx)^2 * distribution.trial()

Note: This is just an example and not a real propagation model.

The following prerequisites are assumed:

• basic understanding of Java;
• intellij IDEA is installed and used for development;
• maven 3 (3.0.0 or above) is installed;
• seamcat-model-5.0.0.jar is downloaded.
