OID_802_11_RSSI_TRIGGER (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

This object identifier when set, requests that the miniport driver set the RSSI trigger value. This value determines when an RSSI status indication event will occur.

When queried, it requests that the miniport driver return the RSSI trigger setting.

The trigger value contains the RSSI measurement in units of dBm and is defined as follows.

typedef LONG  NDIS_802_11_RSSI;

When a status indication triggers, the miniport driver calls NdisMIndicateStatus with the GeneralStatus parameter set to NDIS_STATUS_MEDIA_SPECIFIC_INDICATION. In addition, the StatusBuffer passed to NdisMIndicateStatus points to an NDIS_802_11_RSSI buffer.

If the trigger value is less than the current RSSI value, the status indication triggers when the current value is less than or equal to the trigger value. If the trigger value is greater than the current value, the indication triggers when the current value is greater than or equal to the trigger value. If the trigger value is equal to the current value, the indication triggers immediately.
