I am using iperf to test rate control algorithms (use default:minstrel_ht) on an ath9k device (WRT160NL OpenWRT Backfire 10.3.1 r29592). When I use UDP traffic over an 802.11g connection, the rcstat file is not updated. Not sure if the rate control algoritmh works during the process. If I use TCP traffic, rcstat is updated and statistics/rate change accordingly. Is this the correct behaviour of minstrel RC? I went through documentation regarding MRR and retransmission bounds but wasn't able to figure it out. Any one noticed something similar?
Your UDP traffic may be completely uni-directional, so no packets are ever received. Maybe try setting up a bi-directional traffic flow? Ben
