802.11b Short Preamble with 1Mb/s rate?

Aug 03, 2005 0 Replies

Hi folks,



I just read the 11b spec, and still confused with the preamble length when transmitting at 1 Mb/s rate using 802.11b device.



When I set my device to transmit data in 1Mb/s, and supports short preamble. I saw it was sending using Long Preamble. Does the 1Mb/s rate can only use Long Preamble? If yes, then why?



Thanks a lot, sarick
