How to get medium (carrier-sense) information from Atheros chipsets?

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

 



Hello,
I'm working on a research project dealing with real-time capabilities of WLAN. Currently I'm analyzing the ATH5K driver and trying to find a way to get information about the medium state (carrier-sense state) . I want to check whether the medium is currently occupied by other stations or not. Is there a way to get the carrier sense information from the hardware through a status-register or so? (Currently we have a AR5413 Chip, but any other would also be OK) The only information i found was about the profile count registers, which doesn't really meet our requirements.

I greatly appreciate your help

Kind regards
Stefan Schwalowsky
