I need to calculate the ratio of retransmitted packets to transmitted frames for each second.
I know I can show only retransmitted packets in Wireshark using the filter wlan.fc.retry eq 1.

I would be interested in identifying the retransmitted packets from the exported file that contains all the packets. Is this possible ?

Thanks!

You could use tshark, try the following:

tshark -r <file> -q -z io,stat,1,frame,wlan.fc.retry==1

You would get something similar to:

MacSake:~ sake$ tshark -r dns.cap -q -z io,stat,10,frame,dns.flags.response==0,dns.flags.response==1
