Constants

IEEE80211_RATE_SHORT_PREAMBLE

Hardware can send with short preamble on this bitrate; only relevant in 2.4GHz band and with CCK rates.

IEEE80211_RATE_MANDATORY_A

This bitrate is a mandatory rate when used with 802.11a (on the 5 GHz band); filled by the core code when registering the wiphy.

IEEE80211_RATE_MANDATORY_B

This bitrate is a mandatory rate when used with 802.11b (on the 2.4 GHz band); filled by the core code when registering the wiphy.

IEEE80211_RATE_MANDATORY_G

This bitrate is a mandatory rate when used with 802.11g (on the 2.4 GHz band); filled by the core code when registering the wiphy.

IEEE80211_RATE_ERP_G

This is an ERP rate in 802.11g mode.

IEEE80211_RATE_SUPPORTS_5MHZ

Rate can be used in 5 MHz mode

IEEE80211_RATE_SUPPORTS_10MHZ

Rate can be used in 10 MHz mode

Overview

Hardware/specification flags for rates. These are structured in a way that allows using the same bitrate structure for different bands/PHY modes.
