Note

WSF_COMM_XMTR and WSF_COMM_RCVR are transmit-only and receive-only versions of WSF_COMM_TRANSCEIVER.

Overview

WSF_COMM_TRANSCEIVER provides a baseline perfect/wired implementation that is capable of both transmitting and receiving. If a communication device is required to transmit or receive only, the WSF_COMM_XMTR and WSF_COMM_RCVR types are available. Both of these types are special cases of the WSF_COMM_TRANSCEIVER type and therefore share the same commands that are listed below in the command section.

This model is the baseline capability of communications in AFSIM. It has no additional capabilities beyond what is provided in the comm Commands, which is the typical set of capability provided in AFSIM.

For a more detailed look on how baseline communications work, see Communications Primer.
