+/**
+ * This is a simple example in order to show how 802.11n compressed block ack mechanism could be used.
+ *
+ * Network topology:
+ * 
+ *  Wifi 192.168.1.0
+ * 
+ *        AP
+ *   *    *
+ *   |    |
+ *   n1   n2 
+ *
+ * In this example a QoS sta sends UDP datagram packets to access point. On the access point
+ * there is no application installed so it replies to every packet with an ICMP frame. However
+ * our attention is on originator sta n1. We have set blockAckThreshold (mininum number of packets to use
+ * block ack) to 2 so if there are in the BestEffort queue more than 2 packets a block ack will be
+ * negotiated. We also set a timeout for block ack inactivity to 3 blocks of 1024 microseconds. This timer is
+ * reset when:
+ *    - the originator receives a block ack frame.
+ *    - the recipient receives a block ack request or a MPDU with ack policy Block Ack.
