  2. MAC Error Reporting Enhancements Technical Overview Benjamin A. Rolfe ben@blindcreek.com Ben Rolfe

  3. Summary/Contents • Purpose • Error Reporting • NACK Ben Rolfe

  4. Purpose • Better support for upper layer control • Link Assessment • Adaptation • Robustness Ben Rolfe

  5. Error Reporting • 15.4-2006 LQI • On each received frame • Implementation dependent (OK) • 15.4-2006 Lacks Error Reporting • No count of receive errors • Needed for better link assessment, adaptation Ben Rolfe

  6. Error Reporting (2) • MPIB error counters (R/W) • Read/reset by NHL (MLME-Get/Set) • CRC Errors • Other reception errors • Transmit errors? Ben Rolfe

  7. NACK • NACK • Signal unsupported frame/feature • Such as fragmentation (multi-frame feature) • Spares wasted time on air Ben Rolfe

  8. Thanks ben@blindcreek.com Ben Rolfe
