An electronic device includes a medium access controller (MAC) to generate frames and transmitter circuitry to convert the frames to radio-frequency (RF) analog signals for transmission. The MAC is to initiate frame generation at a time that precedes initiation of RF analog signal transmission by a specified time period. In a first mode, the MAC is to generate a dummy frame during a first portion of the specified time period and to initiate generation of a transmit frame during a subsequent second portion of the specified time period. Also in the first mode, the transmitter circuitry is to convert the dummy frame into a first analog signal, discard the first analog signal, convert the transmit frame into a second analog signal, and transmit the second analog signal.
