There is a patch by Marco Fiore that implements the AARF algorithm, you can download it from http://www.telematica.polito.it/fiore/ AARF (Adaptive Auto Rate Fallback) is an algorithm that decides which bit rate should be used depending on the characteristics of the wireless channel. It makes its decision based on the number of retries needed for sending a packet.
Hi all, I wish to implement a feature for 802.11, in which I need to know the current physical data rate of the wireless medium form the C++ code. I know that in the real world scenario, the data rate fluctuates. Does ns model such fluctuations and can the changing rates be measured? Thanks, Piyush
