    摘要: Flows admitted to a mesh node may be controlled through contention access parameters. The admitting node may determine a desired transmission opportunity duration, and a transmission opportunity frequency. Furthermore, the node may achieve the flow rate and delay bound requirements of the admitted flow based at least in part upon the desired transmission opportunity duration, and the transmission opportunity frequency. The data rate and the access frequency of the admitted node may be monitored at the physical access level. The flow rate requirement may be accomplished based at least in part upon an adjustment to the transmission opportunity duration. The delay bound requirement may be accomplished at least in part upon manipulation of the contention access parameters. The transmission opportunity duration and the access parameters may be determined by the upstream admitting nodes, which may reduce congestion near mesh portals, and accomplish increased data transfer.

    摘要: An apparatus includes a processing system configured to establish a link with any one of a plurality of access points in a mesh network, each of the access points providing the apparatus with a different data path through the mesh network. The processing system is further configured to compute a metric for each of the data paths and select one of the access points to establish the link with based on the metrics. In a centralized mesh network, an apparatus includes a processing system configured to compute, for each of the access points, a metric for each of a plurality of data paths supportable by that access point, and establish interconnections between the access points based on the metrics.

    摘要: Techniques for controlling transmissions in wireless communication networks are described. In one aspect, transmission control for a mesh network may be achieved by ranking mesh points or stations in the mesh network. In one design, the rank of a first station in the mesh network may be determined. At least one station of lower rank than the first station in the mesh network may be identified. At least one transmission parameter for the at least one station of lower rank may be set by the first station. In another aspect, stations may be assigned different transmission parameter values to achieve the data requirements of each station. At least one transmission parameter value may be selected for each station based on the rank, QoS requirements, amount of traffic, and/or achievable data rate for that station and may be sent (e.g., via a probe response message) to the station.

    摘要: Techniques for resolving blinded-node problems are described herein. One aspect operates on the physical (PHY) layer only, which a second layer operates on the medium access control (MAC) layer. Both aspects involve having a node stop processing a data packet that is not destined for it so as to be able to reserve its resources to detect control and other packets. An apparatus for implementing the techniques are also disclosed.

    摘要: Techniques and apparatus for controlling the transmit power of an uplink (UL) signal from a user terminal in a wireless communications system in an effort to achieve some target characteristic, such as a target carrier-to-interference (C/I) ratio, at an access point (AP) are provided. In this manner, such a user terminal may help avoid or compensate for imbalances in received radio frequency (RF) power between UL signals received from multiple user terminals by the AP. For example, the transmit power at each user terminal may be controlled in an effort to achieve a target post-processing C/I ratio of 28 dB per spatial stream in an effort to reduce large power imbalances and optimize throughput per user terminal. The user terminal and the AP may compose part of a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication system utilizing spatial-division multiple access (SDMA) techniques.
