Simulate a connection to real device driver?

I would like to test the internals of a real device driver for an AP against a large collection of simulated stations.
My idea would be to cut off the RF portions of the real AP and connect to your simulated RF transport.
Does this behave enough like true linux wifi that this could work? If I got the simulated RF correct, the AP would think it was connected to many stations?
Thank you!

@mikedorin, You can try virt_wifi, a fake implementation of cfg80211_ops
that can be tacked on to an ethernet net_device
to make it appear as a wireless connection.
