45 /* A generic radio capture format is desirable. There is one for
46 * Linux, but it is neither rigidly defined (there were not even
47 * units given for some fields) nor easily extensible.
49 * I suggest the following extensible radio capture format. It is
50 * based on a bitmap indicating which fields are present.
52 * I am trying to describe precisely what the application programmer
53 * should expect in the following, and for that reason I tell the
54 * units and origin of each measurement (where it applies), or else I
55 * use sufficiently weaselly language ("is a monotonically nondecreasing
56 * function of...") that I cannot set false expectations for lawyerly
57 * readers.
61 * The radio capture header precedes the 802.11 header.
62 * All data in the header is little endian on all platforms.
