//
// ChannelControl has exactly one instance in every network model that 
// contains mobile or wireless nodes. This module gets informed about the 
// location and movement of nodes, and determines which nodes are within
// communication or interference distance. This info is then used by the 
// radio interfaces of nodes at transmissions.
//
// Side effect: updates the containing compound module's display string
// according to the given playground size (sets <tt>"p=0,0;b=$playgroundSizeX,
// $playgroundSizeY"</tt>).
//
// This ChannelControl is a different implementation from the one in 
// Mobility Framework 1.0a5: here we use sendDirect(), while the MF version 
// used normal send() and dynamic connections.
