Using distance distributions

Using distance distributions, you can define the distribution between a point and a maximum distance. To do so, you enter a maximum distance (default value 100 m). The minimum limit 0 m cannot be edited.

If you are using external software to simulate the communication between vehicles or the communication between vehicles and suitable roadside infrastructure, you can exchange data with Vissim via the COM interface. This type of data includes the probability of possible data loss when the sending vehicle is at a certain distance. If the distance to the sending vehicle (world coordinates) is NULL, the probability is NULL. The probability increases up to the maximum distance and then reaches the value 1.
