About the TSFT field

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

 



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.
