EMPTY DATA PACKET HARD ALIGN

Abstract:

A wireless device is provided that determines a set of expected packets from a second wireless device, each expected packet of the set of expected packets comprising an expected cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of a set of expected CRCs, receives a packet from the second wireless device, the received packet comprising a header and a first CRC, determines whether a second CRC generated based on the header in the received packet matches the first CRC received in the received packet, determines, when the generated second CRC does not match the first CRC received in the received packet, a third CRC of the set of expected CRCs based on the first CRC, and replaces the received header with a header corresponding to the determined third CRC.
