| 1. A method of communication over a wireless channel comprising:
receiving a request to send (RTS) frame that includes a header which includes a modulation scheme and a bit to select a mode
of feedback channel state information (CSI) exchange scheme to exchange data between two or more stations;
calculating a bit and power loading (BPL) parameter during receiving the RTS frame based on said RTS frame header content;
adapting a physical layer parameter based on exchanged channel information and exchanging over a channel the adapted physical
layer parameter, wherein the physical layer parameter includes a bit and power loading parameter;
applying the calculated bit and power loading parameter to a portion of a clear to send (CTS) frame; and
modulating a portion of the CTS frame based on channel state information and said modulation scheme.
