摘要:
A power saving apparatus and a method in a wireless communication system are provided. An Access Point (AP) buffers transmission frames for sleep-mode stations in a sleep-mode buffer. Upon wakeup from a sleep mode, a station sends a first control information frame indicating wakeup to the access point. The access point sends a second control information frame including a requested transmission length in response to the first control information frame to the station. The station generates a third control information frame, aggregates the third control information frame and user data frames to a first protocol data unit, and sends it to the AP. Then the AP generates a fourth control information frame, aggregates the fourth control information frame and buffered frames to a second protocol data unit, and sends it to the station.

An apparatus performs a method for determining duplication of content in portable terminal. A method for operating a portable terminal includes downloading at least one content of a predetermined size from a server, and determining whether the same content is already stored in the portable terminal, based on the size of the downloaded content.

A method and apparatus for correcting a Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) of an antenna of a mobile terminal, which can detect if a Micro-Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) reconfigurable antenna for wireless communication contacts a foreign substance, to correct an SNR of the antenna. The mobile terminal having the MEMS reconfigurable antenna changes the MEMS reconfigurable antenna and calculates an SNR during execution of the wireless communication, thereby setting the MEMS reconfigurable antenna to an antenna form corresponding to a greatest SNR.

A method and apparatus is provided for efficiently allocating a transmission period in a wireless network system. An access point (AP) transmits a PSMP frame indicating a downlink period provided to each station (STA) and a minimum amount of an uplink period allocated to each STA, and at least one sub PSMP frame indicating an uplink period additionally provided for an STA that transmitted a resource request message for remaining queued data in the uplink period indicated by the PSMP frame. If the uplink period indicated by the PSMP frame is insufficient to transmit the queued data, the STA transmits a data unit including a part of the queued data and a resource request message for the remaining queued data in the uplink period. After transmitting the resource request message, the STA receives the sub PSMP frame after the full period indicated by the sub PSMP frame, and transmits the remaining queued data to the AP in the uplink period indicted by the sub PSMP frame.
摘要:
A power saving method of a terminal in a wireless communication system including an access point for transmitting a beacon frame and a paging frame, and a terminal for compensating for timing offset with the access point using the beacon frame and detecting a position thereof using the paging frame. The terminal supports an active mode in which data transmission/reception is actually performed and a power saving mode in which power consumption is reduced when there is no transmission/reception data. The method includes calculating a paging timing offset generated for a reception interval of the paging frame using the beacon frame, and receiving the paging frame after a lapse of a time corresponding to the paging timing offset in the power saving mode.

Disclosed is a method for configuring a bitmap in a mobile ARQ communication system employing a block ACK scheme, which faithfully performs its intrinsic function of acknowledging a reception result, and yet can reduce transmission delay and the overall system load due to retransmission in the case where packet loss is relatively less important than transmission delay time, such as in the case of voice communication. To this end, a recipient compares a packet error rate, PER of a received packet signal with a threshold value. If the PER is higher than the threshold value, the recipient operates in the block ACK scheme, and if the PER is lower than the threshold value, the recipient determines a bitmap configuration scheme on the assumption that an erroneous frame has been successfully received. Also, using the determined bitmap configuration scheme, the recipient transmits a reception result for each received packet.
