# struct\_ieee80211\_supported\_band(9)

frequency band definition

## NAME

struct\_ieee80211\_supported\_band - frequency band definition

## SYNOPSIS

```
struct ieee80211_supported_band {
  struct ieee80211_channel * channels;
  struct ieee80211_rate * bitrates;
  enum ieee80211_band band;
  int n_channels;
  int n_bitrates;
  struct ieee80211_sta_ht_cap ht_cap;
  struct ieee80211_sta_vht_cap vht_cap;
};
```

## MEMBERS

channels

Array of channels the hardware can operate in in this band.

bitrates

Array of bitrates the hardware can operate with in this band. Must be sorted to give a valid “supported rates” IE, i.e. CCK rates first, then OFDM.

band

the band this structure represents

n\_channels

Number of channels in *channels*

n\_bitrates

Number of bitrates in *bitrates*

ht\_cap

HT capabilities in this band

vht\_cap

VHT capabilities in this band

## DESCRIPTION

This structure describes a frequency band a wiphy is able to operate in.
