Hey all, I don't know if this is the best place to ask, thus I apologize in advance.
Back in the day I was messing around with MadWifi and, if I remember properly, after a packet was transmitted if the sender did not receive an ACK in SIFS time after the completion of the transmission, the sender would attempt a retransmission using the same or lower rate (multi rate retransmissions) *without going into the backoff/contention phase*. I spent some time going through the 802.11-2012 protocol trying to find relevant information without any luck. Is anyone familiar with that concept? Is it implemented that way in ath9k? Is this what the protocol implies? Any pointers/suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you, George
