Method of increasing data rate via clock switching in a wireless data communication network

摘要

A method of increasing the data rate in a wireless Ethernet employs clock switching between the preamble 102 and the encoded data portion 104 of a packet structure 200. A shift block 202 includes a tail sequence 204 and a head sequence 206 that is inserted between the preamble 102 and the encoded data portion 104. The clock switching occurs within the shift block 202 between the tail and the head sequences 204, 206. The tail sequence 204 and the head sequence 206 are each constrained to be a fixed sequence. <IMAGE>
