802.11 Standards Supported by WLAN Toolbox for PHY Modeling

WLAN Toolbox™ configuration objects define transmission parameters for IEEE® 802.11™ waveforms. This table shows the 802.11 versions that WLAN Toolbox supports for physical layer (PHY) modeling, as well as the corresponding IEEE standards, packet formats, physical protocol data unit (PPDU) types, and WLAN Toolbox configuration objects.
