Configurable spectral mask for use in a high data throughput wireless communication

A configurable spectral mask for a channel for use in a wireless communication includes a channel pass region, a floor region, and a transition region. The channel pass region provides a first usable signal bandwidth of a plurality of usable signal bandwidths corresponding to a first channel width of a plurality of channel widths. The floor region provides a first floor attenuation value of a plurality of floor attenuation values corresponding to the first channel width. The transition region providing a first transition attenuation of a plurality of transition attenuations from the channel pass region to the floor region, wherein the first attenuation region corresponds to the first channel width.
