WLAN Gain Table#

Follow the steps below to program the region-based maximum power for the WLAN device.

See the Region-based Maximum Power section for more details.

Compile and insert the driver, as described in the Compilation Steps and Installing the Driver sections.
Navigate to the rsi/release folder.
Copy the contents of appropriate gain tables based on the antenna from the different gain tables shared (say wlan_gain_table_1_3.txt ) to wlan_gain_table.txt to the release folder.
Run the following commands:
```
#./onebox_util rpine0 update_wlan_gain_table
```
With the above commands, gain tables programming will start and a successful programming should show below output in dmesg logs.
```
  ******************Successfully completed programming n gain tables***************** 
```
In this case, 'n' is the number of structures given in wlan_gain_table.txt file.

The following is the reference Gain table structure format while updating the file.

//!************************************************************
//! INSTRUCTIONS SHOULD BE FOLLOWED TO EDIT BELOW GAIN TABLES:

//!************************************************************

//! 1. Each value should be seperated by ',' and space characters.

//! 2. Multi-line comments not supported. (e.g. /*comment*/)

//! 3. A space before comment is needed, for in-line comments. (e.g. < Data > // < Comment >)

//! 4. Hexa-decimal numbers not supported.

//! 5. No space between value and ',' character.

//! 6. Table with size more than 128 bytes is not supported.

//! 7. Supported table names and their maximum supported size are

//!     For 2 GHz and 20 MHz ---
_RS9116_HP_MODE_REGION_BASED_RATE_VS_MAXPOWER_SINGLE_BAND_NONHPM  MAX_LENGTH = 128

//!    NOTE: No support for other table names.

//! 8. Gain table Format:
