Subject: About the TSFT field
Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2014 11:52:30 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <53EB355E.6090508@create-net.org> (raw)
Hi,
I'm planning to use the TSFT field present in the radiotap
header in order to reconstruct a timeline of packet
reception at different AP.
As far as I've understood the TSFT is generated from the MAC,
however I do not know to which instant the TSFT is relative,
the first bit of the MAC payload, the beginning of the PLCP,
etc.
Also I do not know from which reference the TSFT is generated,
I mean two AP synchronized using NTP will have consistent
TSFT, which kind of error should I expect?
R.
