DOT11_HOP_ALGO_ADOPTED (Compact 7)

3/12/2014

This enumeration describes the returned hopping patterns that are used by the frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) PHY.

Algorithms

dot11_hop_algo_current
The algorithm generates hopping patterns as defined in Clause 14 of the IEEE 802.11-1999 and IEEE 802.11d-2001 standards.

dot11_hop_algo_hop_index
The algorithm generates hopping patterns through the hop index method as defined in Clause 7.3.2.14 of the IEEE 802.11d-2001 standard.

The 802.11 station must use the random table method to generate hopping patterns if the Flag field of the Hopping Pattern Table information element (IE) was set to one in the last received Beacon or Probe Response frame. Otherwise, the 802.11 station must use the hop index method.

For more information about the hop index and random table methods, see Clause 7.3.2.14 of the IEEE 802.11d-2001 standard

dot11_hop_algo_hcc
The algorithm generates hopping patterns using the hyperbolic congruence codes (HCC) or extended hyperbolic congruence codes (EHCC) methods. For more information about the HCC/EHCC methods, refer to Clause 9.9.2.1 of the IEEE 802.11d-2001 standard.
