3. Figure 1. Variations in Effective Throughput In this model, various classical data types are modeled message sequences from transactions that occur stochastically. In this model, for example, a Near RT Wave transaction is a continuous, periodic process, typically generating several-to-tens of packets per second (Pps), while a Chart transaction is an intermittent, aperiodic process, typically generating a burst of graphical, tabular data as the user opens or scrolls through the patient flowsheet. Fault-tolerance is modeled by including nominal bit error and packet retry rates, characteristic of RF wireless networks. Source: IEEE P1073.0.1.1 RF Wireless Guide project UseMatrix.xls.
