NAME
struct_ieee80211_channel - channel definition
 
SYNOPSIS
struct ieee80211_channel {
  enum ieee80211_band band;
  u16 center_freq;
  u16 hw_value;
  u32 flags;
  int max_antenna_gain;
  int max_power;
  bool beacon_found;
  u32 orig_flags;
  int orig_mag;
  int orig_mpwr;
};  
 
MEMBERS
band
- 
band this channel belongs to.
center_freq
- 
center frequency in MHz
hw_value
- 
hardware-specific value for the channel
flags
- 
channel flags from
enum
ieee80211_channel_flags.
max_antenna_gain
- 
maximum antenna gain in dBi
max_power
- 
maximum transmission power (in dBm)
beacon_found
- 
helper to regulatory code to indicate when a beacon has been found on this channel. Use
regulatory_hint_found_beacon
to enable this, this is useful only on 5 GHz band.
orig_flags
- 
channel flags at registration time, used by regulatory code to support devices with additional restrictions
orig_mag
- 
internal use
orig_mpwr
- 
internal use
DESCRIPTION
This structure describes a single channel for use with cfg80211.
