-------------------------
- (wifi) Support for MPDU aggregation has been added to the wifi model,
as well as a number of related example programs.
- (wifi) Added two combined power and rate control mechanisms to the
wifi module. The new mechanisms, PARF and APARF, are the first in the
wifi module to jointly control transmission power and data rate. Two use
case examples (PowerAdaptationDistance and PowerAdaptationInterference)
and a test case have also been added.
- (wifi) PARF and APARF WiFi rate controls have been added to the wifi model.

functionality was only partially supported. As an enhancement, a

added within the LTE module examples and tests folder.
- (wave) Support for WiFi-based vehicular communications using the
IEEE 1609.4 framework has been added. A Basic Safety Message (BSM)
application packet generator, and associated statistics counters, has
been added. A comprehensive VANET routing example has been added.
- (wave) Additional support has been added for WiFi-based vehicular networks,
including the channel-access coordination features of IEEE 1609.4 and a
comprehensive VANET routing example that includes a Basic Safety
Message (BSM) packet generator application and associated statistics
counters. Together, these allow users to evaluate the performance effects
in a VANET of varying transmission and channel properties (e.g., packet
rate, message size, transmit power, propagation loss model, impact of
routing protocol traffic, etc.).

by using the RoutingProtocolHelper
