Protocol data units and header in multihop relay network

摘要

The invention provides a data structure embodied in a computer readable media. The data structure is a protocol data packet (PDU) communicated in a mobile multihop network between stations. The data structure includes a relay media access header, a payload and an optional cyclical redundancy checksum for the protocol data unit, and an indication whether the PDU is a relay media access protocol data unit or not.
