Abstract:
In various embodiments, a method of selecting one or more nodes from a plurality of nodes for establishing wireless communication with an access point including defining a filter, filtering the one or more nodes from the plurality of nodes using the filter and sending a linking signal from each of the one or more nodes to the access point for establishing wireless communication with the access point.
Abstract:
According to various embodiments, a radio communication device may be provided. The radio communication device may include: a transmitter configured to transmit a null data packet. The null data packet may include acknowledgement data indicating acknowledgements for a plurality of packets. The null data packet may include a cyclic redundancy check field configured to provide information based on which the null data packet or acknowledgements may be checked for errors. The null data packet may include further information based on which the acknowledgements may be checked for errors.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a compression device including an identifier determination circuit configured to determine a first identifier value identifying a first communication terminal of a network, and a second identifier value identifying a second communication terminal of the network; a differential determination circuit configured to determine a differential value based on a difference between the first identifier value and the second identifier value; and a compressed string generation circuit configured to insert the differential value into a compressed string. A compression method, a decompression device and a decompression method are also disclosed.
Abstract:
According to various embodiments, an access point may be provided. The access point may include: a transmitter configured to transmit scheduling information for a page. The page may include one or more segments of a Traffic Indication Map (TIM). The scheduling information may include at least one of the following information: an explicit indication of an interval of one or more recurrences of subsequent transmissions of the scheduling information for the page; or information indicating scheduling of transmission of segments of the page including at least: an offset between the transmission of the first segment included in the page scheduling and the transmission of the scheduling information; and the number of blocks in each segment of the page, wherein a block contains a predetermined number of bits of the TIM.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a communication terminal in a wireless communication network. The communication terminal includes a receiver configured to receive a first message comprising a media access control (MAC) frame at a first transmission rate from a communication device in the wireless communication network; a message generator configured to generate a second message in response to the received first message, the second message comprising a control response frame; and a transmitter configured to transmit the control response frame at a second transmission rate, wherein the second transmission rate is lower than or equal to the first transmission rate; and wherein the second transmission rate is dependent on a difference in qualities between downlink communication and uplink communication between the communication device and the communication terminal. Methods of modulating a message for transmission in the wireless communication network are also disclosed.
