The data rate shall be equal to the Signal Field value multiplied by • 5.5Mbit/s CCK Length = #octets * 8/5.5, rounded up to the next integer. 100kbit/s. The extended DSSS PHY supports four mandatory modulation services given by the following 8 bit words, where the • 11Mbit/s CCK Length = #octets * 8/11 , rounded up to the next integer LSB shall be transmitted first in time: and the service field LSB bit shall indicate a ‘0’ if the rounding took less than 8/11 or a ‘1’ if the rounding took more than 8/11. – 0Ah (MSB to LSB) for 1 Mbit/s DBPSK • At the receiver, the number of octets in the MPDU is calculated as follows: – 14h (MSB to LSB) for 2 Mbit/s DQPSK • 5.5Mbit/s CCK #octets = Length * 5.5/8, rounded down to the next integer – 37h (MSB to LSB) for 5.5 Mbit/s CCK • 11Mbit/s CCK #octets = Length * 11/8 , rounded down to the next integer, – 6Eh (MSB to LSB) for 11 Mbit/s CCK minus 1 if the service field LSB bit is a ‘1’.
