EHT MU PPDU PPDU

PHY variable EHT MU PPDU unverified

An extremely high throughput transmission — legacy preamble, universal signal field, EHT preamble, data, and a packet extension.

Reading a capture

Its fixed preamble cost is higher again than HE's, which continues a trend worth stating plainly: every generation has made the first microseconds of a transmission more expensive and the microseconds after them cheaper. That trade is only worth taking if frames are long, which is why aggregation stopped being an optimisation and became the assumption.
