"Set the propagation loss model first" error despite having defined "SetPathlossAttribute"

[Angèle Hager Hafaiedh]

I wanted to define a new channel model inside gsoc-nr-channel-models.cc, but i get the "Set the propagation loss model first" error, eventhough I clearly defined it as follows:

   channelHelper->SetPathlossAttribute("ShadowingEnabled", BooleanValue(false));

Why does it generate error messages?

Thank you in advance

Could you please share the code? NrChannelHelper works with ObjectFactory, and if you don't set the TypeId (by calling ConfigureFactories) before setting the attributes, it will fail. I also checked your previous message, maybe you are trying to use this new channel model with the helper. In any case, I can only figure it out if you share the code (or at least some part of it)

This is how i defined a new channel model:

( MyCustomLossModel is a model i created you can replace it with name your own model)

// check if its acustom channel model or not
if(!custom_channel){
    channelHelper->ConfigureFactories("UMi", "LOS", "ThreeGpp");
    // Disable shadowing

    channelHelper->SetPathlossAttribute("ShadowingEnabled", BooleanValue(false));
    }

    else{  

    channelHelper->ConfigurePropagationFactory(ns3::MyCustomLossModel::GetTypeId());    

    
    }
