From 2111ac0d888767999c7dd6d1309dcc1fb8012022 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bruno Randolf Date: Fri, 2 Apr 2010 18:44:08 +0900 Subject: ath5k: Adaptive Noise Immunity (ANI) Implementation This is an Adaptive Noise Imunity (ANI) implementation for ath5k. I have looked at both ath9k and HAL sources (they are nearly the same), and even though i have implemented some things differently, the basic algorithm is practically the same, for now. I hope that this can serve as a clean start to improve the algorithm later. This also adds a possibility to manually control ANI settings, right now only thru a debugfs file: * set lowest sensitivity (=highest noise immunity): echo sens-low > /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani * set highest sensitivity (=lowest noise immunity): echo sens-high > /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani * automatically control immunity (default): echo ani-on > /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani * to see the parameters in use and watch them change: cat /sys/kernel/debug/ath5k/phy0/ani Manually setting sensitivity will turn the automatic control off. You can also control each of the five immunity parameters (noise immunity, spur immunity, firstep, ofdm weak signal detection, cck weak signal detection) manually thru the debugfs file. This is tested on AR5414 and nearly doubles the thruput in a noisy 2GHz band. Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf Signed-off-by: John W.
