摘要： A method, an apparatus for inclusion in a wireless station, and a computer readable storage medium for operation in a wireless station. The method includes received data from at least one remote station and determining an EVM measure from samples of the received data. If the remote station(s) is/are access point(s), the station selects an access point for association according to criteria that include the measure of the EVM from the remote station.

摘要： An apparatus, a carrier medium storing instructions to implement a method, and a method in a node of a wireless network able to receive packets that exactly or substantially conform to a wireless network standard according to which each packet includes a header having bits that have respective correct values in the case that the packet exactly conforms to the standard. The method includes receiving a start-of-packet (SOP) trigger that indicates that a packet may have been received, checking one or more bits in the header to determine whether or not they have their respective correct values, and continuing to process the packet in the case that the checking indicates that the checked bits have their respective correct values. In one implementation, the header includes a first field modulated at a known rate that has one or more reserved bit locations, and a second field modulated at a data rate indicated in the first field. In such an implementation, the checking includes processing the first field and checking one or more bits in the first field to determine whether or not they have their respective correct values, and, if the checked bits of the first field have their respective correct values, checking the second field for integrity.

摘要： An apparatus for inclusion and a method for operation in a station (STA) of a wireless network. The method includes received data from at least one remote station and determining a measure of the signal quality, e.g., a measure of the EVM from samples of the data received from the remote station(s). If the remote station(s) is/are access point(s), the station selects an access point for association according to criteria that include the measure of the EVM from the remote station. If the received data includes a request management message, the station responds to the request management message with a response management message that include a measure of the EVM of the received data corresponding to the request management message. Thus, the remote station receiving the response management message receives an indication of the quality of the link between the station and the remote station without the receiving remote station necessarily being EVM-capable.

摘要： An apparatus in a node of a wireless network for setting the data rate for sending data to a remote node, and a method for setting the data rate. The method includes receiving a packet from the remote node, determining a measure of signal quality for the received packet; and selecting the data rate for communicating to the remote node according to at least the determined signal quality. The measure of signal quality is a measure of the EVM of the received packet. One implementation conforms to one or more variants of the IEEE 802.11 standard that uses OFDM packets.
