It's not completely unsurprising - the initial channel estimate and such is done at the beginning of each packet and stays constant. So if there's some varying channel conditions that change that during the duration of a packet, the tail end is going to end up having less SNR and may end up getting more errors. -adrian On 24 October 2014 09:04, Ali Abedi <a2abedi@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hello, > > We study the effects of 802.11n frame aggregation on throughput.
