Abstract
An 802.11-compliant device for high throughput is disclosed. A plurality of TCP packets received in a buffer for transmission are stored. The plurality of TCP packets can be aggregated as A-MSDU sub-frames to form a A-MSDU frame in accordance with an IEEE 802.11 standard. Additionally, a plurality of A-MSDU frames can be aggregated as A-MPDU sub-frames to form a A-MPDU frame. The A-MPDU frame is compliant with a number of allowable sub-frames and a maximum size in accordance with an 802.11 standard. The A-MPDU frame is sent for transmission as an IEEE 802.11 packet.
