Abstract
A method and system for determining the transmission rate between a plurality of stations in a wireless local area network (WLAN) are provided. Each mobile station evaluates the current link condition based on the Received Signal Strength (RSS) from received frames and adjusts a new transmission rate according to predetermined criteria, which is updated based on whether the transmission of subsequent signals is successful.
