Zusammenfassung:An approach is provided for data processing methods wherein a PHY layer transmit operation is constructed by aggregating MAC layer data units (MPDUs) by means of a linked list. A link list of TX descriptors can be formed separately from the payloads. In order to minimize processor speed rates, the next transmission buffer is pre-fetched whenever appropriate. Interlocks are used to prevent conflict on descriptor fetches and payload fetches.
