/**
 * \brief Ideal rate control algorithm
 * \ingroup wifi
 *
 * This class implements an 'ideal' rate control algorithm
 * similar to RBAR in spirit (see <i>A rate-adaptive MAC
 * protocol for multihop wireless networks</i> by G. Holland,
 * N. Vaidya, and P. Bahl.): every station keeps track of the
 * snr of every packet received and sends back this snr to the
 * original transmitter by an out-of-band mechanism. Each
 * transmitter keeps track of the last snr sent back by a receiver
 * and uses it to pick a transmission mode based on a set
 * of snr thresholds built from a target ber and transmission
 * mode-specific snr/ber curves.
