Abstract
A device implementing low latency packet forwarding may include at least one processor circuit. The at least one processor circuit may be configured to receive a packet, retrieve routing information from the packet prior to performing an integrity check on the packet, and prepare to transmit the packet based at least in part on the routing information. The routing information may be in the form of, for example, a tag, a label, or a segment, and the routing information may be retrieved from at least one of a preamble, a PHY header, or a MAC header. In the case of the preamble, the information retrieved may be used to both perform channel estimation and route the packet. In multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) and/or channel aggregation implementations, at least a portion of the preamble of each stream (or channel) can be combined to form the routing information.
