-/* This is an implementation of a TX rate control algorithm that uses a PID
- * controller. Given a target failed frames rate, the controller decides about
- * TX rate changes to meet the target failed frames rate.
- *
- * The controller basically computes the following:
- *
- * adj = CP * err + CI * err_avg + CD * (err - last_err) * (1 + sharpening)
- *
- * where
- * adj adjustment value that is used to switch TX rate (see below)
- * err current error: target vs. current failed frames percentage
- * last_err last error
- * err_avg average (i.e. poor man's integral) of recent errors
- * sharpening non-zero when fast response is needed (i.e. right after
- * association or no frames sent for a long time), heading
- * to zero over time
- * CP Proportional coefficient
- * CI Integral coefficient
- * CD Derivative coefficient
- *
- * CP, CI, CD are subject to careful tuning.
- *
- * The integral component uses a exponential moving average approach instead of
- * an actual sliding window. The advantage is that we don't need to keep an
- * array of the last N error values and computation is easier.
- *
- * Once we have the adj value, we map it to a rate by means of a learning
- * algorithm. This algorithm keeps the state of the percentual failed frames
- * difference between rates. The behaviour of the lowest available rate is kept
- * as a reference value, and every time we switch between two rates, we compute
- * the difference between the failed frames each rate exhibited. By doing so,
- * we compare behaviours which different rates exhibited in adjacent timeslices,
- * thus the comparison is minimally affected by external conditions. This
- * difference gets propagated to the whole set of measurements, so that the
- * reference is always the same. Periodically, we normalize this set so that
- * recent events weigh the most. By comparing the adj value with this set, we
- * avoid pejorative switches to lower rates and allow for switches to higher
- * rates if they behaved well.
- *
- * Note that for the computations we use a fixed-point representation to avoid
- * floating point arithmetic. Hence, all values are shifted left by
- * RC_PID_ARITH_SHIFT.
- */
-
-
-/* Adjust the rate while ensuring that we won't switch to a lower rate if it
- * exhibited a worse failed frames behaviour and we'll choose the highest rate
- * whose failed frames behaviour is not worse than the one of the original rate
- * target. While at it, check that the new rate is valid. */
