Abstract
A method is provided for dynamically controlling aggregation in an ultrawide bandwidth wireless device. In this method, a device receives a plurality of intermediate service data units at an intermediate layer, aggregates at least two of the plurality off intermediate service data units to form an intermediate protocol data unit, and sends the intermediate protocol data unit to a physical layer. The physical layer generates a data frame based on the intermediate protocol data unit and information corresponding to the physical layer, and transmits the data frame in a data stream. The device selects an intermediate size criteria for the intermediate protocol data unit based on a desired frame size criteria for the data frame. The aggregating of the at least two of the plurality of intermediate layer service data units is performed such that an actual intermediate layer protocol data unit size corresponds to the intermediate size criteria.
