Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] How to implement an 802.11-like MAC protocol in GnuRadio?

[George Nychis]

Hi Chung-Wei,

Support for building MAC protocols is still a work in progress here.

Inband signaling is currently in implementation to open up this neck of
the woods, but is still not finished yet.

Reading this will catch you up to date:
