Hi Johannes, Thanks for the reply. You are right that the physical antenna does not change. When I refer to 'calibration data', it actually corresponding to how mwifiex adjust the per-band tx power. For mwifiex, the per-band tx power is pre-calculated based on need, and stored in DT, a vendor

2016-05-05 Thread Wei-Ning Huang
Recent new hardware has the ability to switch between tablet mode and clamshell mode. To optimize WiFi performance, we want to be able to use different power table between modes. This patch adds a new netlink message type and cfg80211_ops function to allow userspace to trigger a power mode switch
