Dear All,
 I would like to know :

1)Can the headers of ALL packets that are corrupted while traversing a
wireless link be retrieved by the MAC layer at the receiver (as proposed
by the Header Checksum Option), so that the ELN mechanism can detect
packet corruption?
2)If no, what percentage of them can be retrieved successfully? Are there
any papers that address this issue?
Regards,
Arjuna
