802.11 Experiments Framework Application Notes

In this section of the documentation, we host application notes. These example uses of the experiments framework that are much more detailed and application-oriented than the official examples. These app notes are built on what is the latest release of the 802.11 Reference Design at the time of authorship. Not all app notes will be ported forward to newer releases, so bear in mind that not everything on this page will always work with modern incarnations of the design.
