ProbeTXRate Element Documentation

NAME

ProbeTXRate — Click element; Madwifi wireless bit-rate selection algorithm

SYNOPSIS

ProbeTXRate([KEYWORDS])

Ports: 2 inputs, at most 2 outputs

DESCRIPTION

Probematically determine the txrate for a give ethernet dst

  • RATE_WINDOW — How long to remember tx packets

  • STEPUP — a value from 0 to 100 of what the percentage must be before the rate is increased

  • STEPDOWN — a value from 0 to 100. when the percentage of successful packets falls below this value, the card will try the next lowest rate

  • BEFORE_SWITCH — how many packets must be received before you calculate the rate for a give host. i.e. if you set this to 4, each rate will try at least 4 packets before switching up or down.

    This element should be used in conjunction with SetTXRate and a wifi-enabled kernel module. (like hostap or airo).
