Abstract
Methods and apparatus for providing a flow control mechanism in a wireless network are described. In order to force a transmitting station to implement a rate adaptation mechanism, in which speed is traded off for reliability, a receiver within a receiving station behaves as if the radio conditions were degraded. This may be implemented when defined criteria are met, such as when the available buffer space falls below a threshold, and for some or all types of frames. In an embodiment, when the criteria are met, the receiver does not acknowledge frames received at one or more higher data rates.
