Hello,

I understood the following steps.
I added also some questions where is not clear.

1) do I have to create a new folder in "/usr/share/emane" named "antenna 
profile" as specified in in Listing 7.1?
I'm asking because I found in "/usr/share/emane/models/universal/xml" antenna 
patterns and profiles. So is not clear where I should store these information.

2) I wrote the following antenna manifest:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE profiles SYSTEM 
"file://usr/share/emane/dtd/universalphyantennaprofile.dtd"> <profiles>
<profile id="1" 
antennapatternuri="/usr/share/emane/antennaprofiles/antennapattern_1.xml">
</profile> <profile id="2"
antennapatternuri="/usr/share/emane/antennaprofiles/antennapattern_2.xml"
blockagepatternuri="/usr/share/emane/antennaprofiles/blockagepattern_1.xml"> 
</profile>
<profile id="3" 
antennapatternuri="/usr/share/emane/antennaprofiles/antennapattern_1.xml" 
blockagepatternuri="/usr/share/emane/antennaprofiles/blockagepattern_2.xml">
<placement north="20" east="10" up="5"/> </profile>
<profile id="4" 
antennapatternuri="/usr/share/emane/antennaprofiles/antennapattern_4.xml">
</profile>
<profile id="5" 
antennapatternuri="/usr/share/emane/antennaprofiles/antennapattern_5.xml">
</profile>
</profiles>

I added two profiles number 4 and number 5 WITHOUT blockage because I'm not 
interested to this option.

Where do I have to store the manifest?

3) finally I do have to write the antenna patterns one for profile 4 and one 
for profile 5.
In my case profile 4 is OMNI-directional antenna so could I copy and paste 
Listing 7.2?

The most important question is about how to write "antenna pattern" for 
directional antenna.
Is there someone that could explain that file?
In fact I saw that your repeat these "blocks":

<elevation min=’-90’ max=’-16’>

<bearing min=’0’ max=’359’> <gain value=’-200’/>

</bearing>
</elevation>

My antenna has:
Frequency (MHz) : 2450

VSWR 1.5        

Gain (dBi)  14.5

3dB beamwidth (h)(°)  40

3dB beamwidth (v) (°) 22


Are these information enough?

Thanks in advance.

Simone
