A system and method for using partially received packets in coexisting networks. In one embodiment, a wireless receiver includes an interference detector and a packet validator. The interference detector is configured to determine that time multiplexing of a coexisting wireless network interferes with reception of a packet by the wireless receiver. The packet validator is configured to identify a type of the packet and useable data values of the packet when a partial packet is received due to the time multiplexing. The packet validator is configured to identify the type and useable data values of the packet based on a packet signature stored in the wireless receiver.

A system and method for scheduling channel access in a wireless device including co-located network transceivers are disclosed herein. A wireless device includes a first wireless transceiver, a second wireless transceiver, and an arbiter. The first wireless transceiver is configured for communication via a first wireless network. The second wireless transceiver is configured for communication via a second wireless network. The arbiter controls which one of the first and second transceivers is enabled to transmit at a given time. The arbiter computes a predicted a start time for a transmission via the second wireless transceiver and computes a transmission duration for a first packet pending transmission via the first transceiver. Based on the predicted start time and the computed duration, the arbiter transmits the first packet at a time when the first packet transmission does not overlap the transmission via the second wireless transceiver.

In accordance with at least some embodiments, a system comprises an access point and a station in communication with the access point. The station has at least two network technology subsystems subject to coexistence interference. The station selectively implements bounded Power Save (PS)-Polling (BPS) logic to handle communications between the station and the access point. The BPS logic operates to confine PS-Poll transmissions starts to one of two separate windows during a medium grant duration of the station.

Apparatus and method for providing fine timing assistance to global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) via wireless local area network (WLAN). In one embodiment, a method for synchronizing a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver includes receiving, by a wireless device, via a wireless local area network (WLAN), fine time assistance information transmitted by an assisting device connected to the WLAN. A time value of a GNSS clock of the wireless device is adjusted based on the fine time assistance information. Based on the adjusted time value, GNSS codes of a GNSS positioning signal are acquired by the wireless device.

Embodiments provide systems and methods for traffic flow based rate adaptation in packet-based networks. In some embodiments, a communications system comprises at least one receiver and a transmitter able to control transmission to the at least one receiver of a packet among a plurality of traffic flows, each traffic flow having its own transmission rate adaptation mechanism. In other embodiments, a communications method comprises determining, by a transmitter able to control transmission of a packet among a plurality of traffic flows each having its own transmission rate adaptation mechanism, a parameter value, and, depending upon the parameter value, adapting the transmission rate of at least one traffic flow. In further embodiments, a communications device comprises a transmitter able to control transmission of a packet among a plurality of traffic flows, each traffic flow having its own transmission rate adaptation mechanism.

Systems and methods for media access control (MAC) layer bridging of a real communication device to a simulated network are described herein. Some illustrative embodiments include a communication network bridge that includes a processor that executes simulation software that implements a simulated network and further implements a simulated network interface that provides a communication path to the simulated communication network, and a real network interface that provides a communication path to a real communication network. A first media access control (MAC) layer message that conforms to a protocol associated with the real communication network is received by the real network interface from across the real communication network. The first MAC layer message is transformed by a first transformation operation into a second MAC layer message that is forwarded to a physical (PHY) layer of the simulated network interface.
摘要:
Disclosed implementations address the coexistence problem of wireless local area network (WLAN) and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technologies on the same device. For example, an apparatus includes a WLAN controller configured to cause a wireless transceiver module to send and receive packets over a wireless medium. A second controller is coupled to the WLAN controller and also configured to cause the wireless transceiver module to send and receive packet. The second controller informs the WLAN controller that the second controller is going to cause an advertising packet to be transmitted by the wireless transceiver module. The WLAN controller responds by causing a first protection packet to be transmitted by the wireless transceiver module, said first protection packet causes all wireless devices receiving the protection packet to inhibit use of the wireless medium during a timer period which includes the advertising packet. Other embodiments are disclosed as well.
