The driver or rate control algorithm has to

do this correctly (yet).

Just as an example, in rt2x00  we just have to set one bit in the tx
descriptor to
force the hw to send out a 1-stream RTS to wake up the peer, from
rt2x00queue.c:

                /*
                 * MIMO PS should be set to 1 for
STA's using dynamic SM PS
                 * when using more then one tx stream
(>MCS7).
                 */
                if (sta && txdesc->u.ht.mcs > 7 &&
                     sta->smps_mode ==
IEEE80211_SMPS_DYNAMIC)
                       
__set_bit(ENTRY_TXD_HT_MIMO_PS, &txdesc->flags);

HTH,
Helmut
