Subject: [PATCH RFC/RFT] b43: Improve TX power recalculation under load
Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2008 21:54:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200808252154.18571.mb@bu3sch.de> (raw)
This patch improves the recalculation of the TX attenuations
for improved scaling of the TX power under load.
This should improve (reduce) the time it takes the RC algorithm
to find the best transmission rate.
It should also improve the scaling of the attenuations to changed
environment (moving laptop, roaming, etc...)
This patch is experimental, but please test it a lot.
Please test performance and throughput of the wireless link (iperf, wget, ...)
The patch is available here:
http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-testing/20080825-2146/patches/004-b43-NEW-rewrite-txpower-adjusting.patch
It _requires_ this patch to be applied _first_:
http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-testing/20080825-2146/patches/003-b43-phy-ops.patch
The patches apply to wireless-testing.git:
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-testing.git
Thanks for supporting development of b43.
