1. A first wireless device, comprising:
- a receiver comprisinga channel estimation module configured to (i) receive, from a second wireless device over a communication channel, a training packet, and (ii) estimate a quality of the communication channel based on the training packet, anda modulation and coding scheme (MCS) determination module configured to determine an MCS based on one or more of (i) the training packet and (ii) the estimated quality of the communication channel; and
a transmitter configured to transmit, to the second wireless device over the communication channel, an indication of the MCS determined by the MCS determination module.

Abstract
A first wireless device including a receiver and a transmitter. The receiver includes a channel estimation module configured to receive, from a second wireless device over a communication channel, a training packet and estimate a quality of the communication channel based on the training packet, and a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) determination module configured to determine an MCS based on one or more of the training packet and the estimated quality of the communication channel. The transmitter is configured to transmit, to the second wireless device over the communication channel, an indication of the MCS determined by the MCS determination module.
