// This example is used to validate NIST and YANS error rate models for VHT rates.
//
// It outputs plots of the Frame Success Rate versus the Signal-to-noise ratio for
// both NIST and YANS error rate models and for every VHT MCS value (MCS 9 is not
// included since it is forbidden for 20 MHz channels).
