Frame bursting may be permissible in certain scenarios such as when the link is point-to-point or when the signal from other users is indistinguishable from noise.
[1] In the case of wireless technology, the draft 802.11e quality of service specification allows frame bursting under some situations.
Frame bursting may increase the throughput of any (point-to-point) 802.11a, b, g or n link connection under certain conditions.
This is done by reducing the overhead associated with the wireless session in either of the following two modes: Frame bursting and fast framing allow a wireless client to upload data at higher throughputs by using the inter-frame wait intervals to "burst" a sequence of up to three packets before waiting the required period.
Proprietary extensions that have added frame bursting to the wireless standards include Nitro from Intersil, Super G from Atheros, Xpress from Broadcom and Xtreme G from D-Link.
