Simulate time of pings (Internal function)

Source: R/simTrack.R

This function will produce simulated time of pings of the relevant type. For internal use only; should not be needed by users.

simTOP(
  trueTrack,
  pingType,
  sbi_mean = NULL,
  sbi_sd = NULL,
  rbi_min = NULL,
  rbi_max = NULL
)

Arguments

trueTrack

Track obtained from simTrueTrack().
pingType

Type of transmitter to simulate - either stable burst interval ('sbi'), random burst interval ('rbi') or random burst interval but where the random sequence is known a priori
sbi_mean

Mean and SD of burst interval when pingType = 'sbi'
sbi_sd

Mean and SD of burst interval when pingType = 'sbi'
rbi_min

Minimum and maximum BI for random burst interval transmitters
rbi_max

Minimum and maximum BI for random burst interval transmitters

Value

Vector of simulated time of pings. Length = number of steps in simulated track.
