Explanation of the table

Hello Jbsky!
In your repository, I found a patch of power table for the WiFi - add_mamba_powertables.patch
You could have given a reference where to read or explain this table, and more the data array. I understand that the first value refers to the channel number, and what means the following values I don't understand.
<4 0 0x16 0x15 0x14 0x13 0x12 0x11 0x10 0x9 0x8 0x7 0x6 0x5 0x4 0x3 0x2 0x0 0 0xf>

I should be very grateful for the reference or explanation.
