2.23.2 RTS Threshold (bytes)
The RTS Threshold parameter defines the minimum frame size that requires an
RTS/CTS (Request To Send/Clear To Send) handshake. Frames whose size is
smaller than the RTS Threshold value are transmitted directly to the wireless link
without being preceded with RTS frames. Setting this parameter to a value larger
than the maximum frame size eliminates the RTS/CTS handshake for frames
transmitted by this unit.
The available values range from 20 to 4092 bytes for all unit types except to
BreezeACCESS units with HW Revision A or B where the values range is from 20
to 2200 bytes.
In an AU, it is recommended that the default values (the highest value supported
by the unit’s hardware) be used to ensure that RTS/CTS is never used by the AU.
For AUs in the 900 MHz band the default is 60. When Tx power is bellow 22 dBm
The RTS Threshold can be changed to 4092 to improve overall performance. If the
Tx power is higher then 22 dBm it is strongly recommended not to change the RTS
Threshold from its default value of 60 since it may result in an excessive number
of CRC errors on the received side.
2.23.3 Number of Hardware Retries
The Number of Hardware Retries parameter defines the maximum number of
times that an unacknowledged packet is retransmitted. When the Adaptive
Modulation Algorithm is disabled, a frame will be dropped when the number of
unsuccessful retransmissions reaches this value. For details on the effect of this
parameter when the Adaptive Modulation Algorithm is enabled, refer to the
description of this feature in Section 2.23.10.
The Number of Hardware Retries parameter is not applicable when the Wireless
Link Prioritization Option is enabled.
The available values range is from 1 to 14.
2.23.4 AVG SNR Memory Factor
The Average SNR Memory Factor defines the weight of history (value of last
calculated average SNR) in the formula used for calculating the current average
SNR for received data frames. This average SNR is used by the ATPC algorithm in
Maximum Contention
Window
The Maximum Contention Window parameter defines the upper limit
for the maximum number C used in the back-off algorithm as
described in Minimum Contention Window above.
The available values are 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511 and 1023.
