Abstract
Method and apparatus for activating and implementing adaptive countermeasures for wireless communication of Fast Ethernet data packets. A terminal for a wireless communication link includes a data packet receiver for receiving data packets, a packet formatting apparatus coupled to the data packet receiver for formatting the data packets according to radio frames, a wireless transceiver coupled to the packet formatting apparatus for communicating the radio frames over a wireless link, and a processor coupled to the packet formatting apparatus for selectively activating a technique for altering a manner in which the radio frames are communicated over the wireless link. The method can include a step of selectively activating a technique for implementing flow control on the data packets. The broadcast device can monitor a bit error rate associated with radio frames communicated and, in response to the bit error rate, can activate the technique for altering the manner in which the radio frames are communicated. The broadcast device can also monitor a received signal level associated with radio frames communicated and, in response to the received signal level, can activate the technique …
