How the data rate is calculated in prism header?

0

When I send the packet at 6MBps in a 10MHz channel, the prism header shows me a value of 1500. How this is calculated?

I don't know which field you're referring to, but you might want to just examine the prism source code to see how it works and where the value comes from.

If you're unable to determine how it's calculated on your own, then I would suggest posting a small packet capture file to somewhere like cloudshark, dropbox, pastebin, etc. so we can see exactly which field you're referring to.
