ITx

module interface

Interface for processes that unconditionally transmit a frame after waiting for a specified inter-frame space (usually SIFS). Such processes can be used to transmit frames where no contention is needed, e.g. ACK, CTS, or the second and further frames of a TXOP.

The following diagram shows inheritance relationships for this type. Unresolved types are missing from the diagram.

Implemented by

Name	Type	Description
Tx	simple module	Responsible for unconditionally transmitting a frame after waiting for a specified inter-frame space. This is the default implementation of the ~ITx module interface.

Used in compound modules

Name	Type	Description
Ieee80211Mac	compound module	Implementation of the 802.11 MAC protocol. This module is intended to be used in combination with the ~Ieee80211Radio module as the physical layer.
