    Abstract: A method of network joining. A first service node (SN) of SNs in a multi-Personal Area Network including data concentrators (DCs) that communicate with a server over a common communications medium configures a beacon request frame (BRF) including a Media Access Control (MAC) header including a header information element (HIE) or a payload IE (PIE), and a MAC CRC footer. The BRF includes a unique address of a first DC corresponding to the first SN or an encrypted data sequence with a key. The first SN transmits the BRF over the common communications medium. Responsive to receiving the BRF, the first DC processes the BRF to identify the unique address or has the key and applies the key to decipher the encrypted BRF. The first DC transmits a beacon frame over the common communications medium, wherein others of the plurality of DCs do not transmit respective beacon frames.

    Abstract: A radio communications device includes a RTC configured to run even during sleep for receiving from a coordinator node (CN) in an asynchronous channel hopping WPAN an asynchronous hopping sequence (AHS) frame that includes the CN's hopping sequence. A processor implements a stored sleepy device operation in asynchronous channel hopping networks algorithm. The algorithm is for determining a time stamp for the AHS frame and the CN's initial timing position within the hopping sequence, storing the time stamp, going to sleep and upon waking up changing a frequency band of its receive (Rx) channel to an updated fixed channel. A data request command frame is transmitted by the device on the CN's listening channel that is calculated from the CN's hopping sequence, time stamp, CN's initial timing position and current time, and the device receives an ACK frame transmitted by the CN at the updated fixed channel of Rx operation.

    Abstract: A method of channel access for a radio device in an asynchronous channel hopping wireless network includes a channel hopping coordinator first radio device transmitting its receive (Rx) channel hopping sequence to a fixed or semi-channel hopping sleepy radio device. The sleepy radio device tracks the first radio device's Rx channel using the channel hopping sequence and transmits a poll frame exclusive of a unicast schedule information element (US-IE) on the first radio device's current Rx channel to the first radio device. The sleepy radio device moves to an updated Rx channel that is a function of the current Rx channel. The first radio device receives the poll frame and then computes the updated Rx channel as the function of the current Rx channel. After the computing, the first radio device transmits a data frame to the sleepy radio device on the updated Rx channel.

    Abstract: A wireless transmission having a header and a payload is sent by transmitting a preamble of the header with a first modulation, wherein the preamble carries a coded modulation indicator. The payload and a remainder of the header are transmitted with a modulation associated with the coded modulation indicator. When the transmission is received, the preamble is demodulated in accordance with the first modulation. The coded modulation indicator is then decoded, and the payload and the remainder of the header are demodulated in accordance with the modulation indicated by the decoded modulation indicator.

    Abstract: A method of powerline communications in a powerline communications (PLC) network including a first PLC device and at least a second PLC device. The first PLC device transmits a data frame to the second node over a PLC channel. The second PLC device has a data buffer for storing received information. The second PLC device runs a flow control algorithm which determines a current congestion condition or a projected congestion condition of the data buffer based on at least one congestion parameter. The current congestion condition and projected congestion condition include nearly congested and fully congested. When the current or projected congestion condition is either nearly congested or fully congested, the second PLC device transmits a BUSY including frame over the PLC channel to at least the first PLC device. The first PLC device defers transmitting of any frames to the second PLC device for a congestion clearing wait time.
