2 depends on PACKAGE_kmod-madwifi
5 bool "Enable compilation of debugging features"
9 config MADWIFI_COMPRESSION
10 bool "Enable Atheros Super A/G Compression"
11 depends !TARGET_ar71xx
14 Enables Atheros Super A/G Hardware Compression Engine.
16 config MADWIFI_SINGLE_MODULE
17 bool "Combine driver and net80211 into a single module"
20 This option combines all driver and stack related code (except for HAL)
21 into a single module, thus saving space and removing unnecessary kernel
25 prompt "Rate control algorithm selection"
26 default MADWIFI_RCA_MINSTREL
28 This option controls how MadWifi chooses its bitrate.
30 config MADWIFI_RCA_MINSTREL
31 bool "Use the Minstrel rate control algorithm"
33 This code is takes a wandering minstrel approach. Wander around the
34 different rates, singing wherever you can. And then, look at the
35 performance, and make a choice. Note that the wandering minstrel will
36 always wander in directions where he/she feels he/she will get paid
37 the best for his/her work.
39 config MADWIFI_RCA_SAMPLERATE
40 bool "Use the SampleRate rate control algorithm"
42 SampleRate decides on the transmission bit-rate based on the past
43 history of performance; it keeps a record of the number of successive
44 failures, the number of successful transmits and the total transmission
45 time along with the destination for that bit-rate. Stale samples are
46 removed based on a EWMA windowing mechanism. If in the sampling
47 process, no successful acknowledgment is received or the number of
48 packets sent is multiple of 10 on a specific link, it transmits the
49 packet with the highest rate which has not failed 4 successive times.
50 Other than that it transmits packets at the rate which has the lowest
51 average transmission time.
