Detailed Description

Typedef Documentation

typedef struct mac_params_list mac_params_list

Structure contains three members, len, which represents the number of keys stored in the struct. key_array that holds the keys themselves and flags, that is a "bytemap" used to convey information about the keys.

Enumeration Type Documentation

enum mac_parameter_keys

Enumeration values: mac_txpower  Key that corresponds to the transmit power of the wireless interface. mac_rssi  Key that corresponds to the received signal strength index of the wireless interface. mac_noise  Key that corresponds to the noise, at the receiving end, of the wireless interface. mac_currentXmitRate  Key that corresponds to the current transmit rate of the wireless interface. { mac_txpower=START_PARAMS_KEY, mac_rssi, mac_noise, mac_currentXmitRate } mac_parameter_keys;
