Abstract
A wireless communication unit to facilitate determining a plurality of communication link cost metrics at a receiving wireless communication unit using a multiple modulation and coding scheme, MCS, in a wireless mesh network, is described. A transmitter transmits sounding transmissions to at least two neighboring wireless communication units. A processor generates a sounding burst comprising: a plurality of multicast sounding transmissions that employ a different MCS; and a plurality of parameters contained at an application layer protocol level. The plurality of parameters comprises: an intra-burst sequence number for each MCS transmitted within each multicast sounding transmission; an indication of a number of sounding transmissions in the sounding burst; and an index value that references a particular table within a set of tables which is then used to determine a transmission bit rate, B, at the receiving unit for each multicast sounding transmission within the sounding burst.
