1. A method for providing feedback regarding a wireless communication channel, the method comprising:
estimating, by a responding processor, condition of the wireless communication channel;
generating, by the responding processor, a data field, wherein the data field includes a communication parameter based on the estimated condition of the wireless communication channel;
monitoring, by the responding processor, for a criterion;
in response to detecting, by the responding processor, satisfaction of the criterion, attaching the data field to a control frame having a header portion and a body portion, wherein the data field is attached to the body portion of the control frame;
setting, by the responding processor, a value in the header portion for indicating presence of the data field in the body portion; and
transmitting, by the responding processor, the control frame with the data field, wherein a transmitting processor receives the data field in the control frame and selects a transmit parameter for transmitting data over the wireless communication channel based on the communication parameter in the data field.
