wl1251 and NoA protocol

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

 



Hi all,

I would like to test Notice of Absence powersaving protocol for
802.11abg WLANs on some current android smartphone. My question is
regarding the wl1251 driver implementation for TI chipsets:

* Does the chipset/current implementation support sleep/awake
triggers? (or at least quiet elements?) -> This means, can I command
the NIC to stay quiet (slept) for certain duration of time?

My plan is to implement/test a Notice of Absence protocol where the
driver would trigger absent (quiet/sleep) periods according to the
beacon's NoA IE. Ive seen in the code the wl1251_ps_elp_sleep/wakeup
functions that might be reused for this purpose (?)

* Last (lazy) question. AFAIK only the google dev 1 phone uses this
chipset. Is there any 1ghz android device that could benefit of this
driver?


Thanks for your answer,
Andrés
