[PATCH 05/36] iwlwifi: set VHT beamformee STS cap correctly

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Eyal Shapira <eyal@xxxxxxxxxx>

It was set to zero which reflects support of a single STS.
Set according to the number of Rx antennas which correctly
reflects the number of STSs the STA can receive in a VHT NDP.
This improves beamforming and has been tested to improve Rx
throughput.
