Abstract: A method for measuring delay in a wireless fidelity (WiFi) network includes measuring a delay associated with transmission of a packet through the WiFi network in response to a measurement request from a requesting device, and contending for access to a communications channel of the WiFi network after measurement of the delay. The method also includes transmitting the delay as measured to the access point using the communications channel after a successful contention.

Abstract: Mobile stations can query independent basic service set (BSS) parameters of a group of Access Points (APs) by setting a Pre-Association Message Exchange BSSID Independent (PAME-BI) bit during Wi-Fi discovery. The PAME-BI bit may be included in a Generic Advertisement Service (GAS) request to indicate that an Access Network Query Protocol (ANQP) request carried by the GAS request is querying both independent and dependent BSS parameters. In some embodiments, the PAME-BI bit is included as a field in the ANQP query, rather than the GAS request message.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by a station (STA) from an access point (AP), a frame including a device type indicator and comparing the device type indicator with a device type accepted by a basic service set (BSS) of the AP to produce a comparison. The method also includes determining whether to associate the STA with the AP in accordance with the comparison, associating the STA with the AP upon determining to associate the STA with the AP, and not associating the STA with the AP upon determining not to associate the STA with the AP.

Abstract: It is possible to shorten channel monitoring periods of unoccupied channels during Wi-Fi discovery by verifying whether or not a message indicating the presence of a Wi-Fi AP has been detected prior to the probe timer reaching a medium channel time (MedChannelTime). For example, STAs detecting some channel activity during the clear channel assessment may nevertheless discontinue monitoring a Wi-Fi Channel when no messages indicating the presence of a Wi-Fi AP are detected prior to expiration of the MedChannelTime. Messages indicating the presence of a Wi-Fi AP may include any Wi-Fi messages sent from or destined for a Wi-Fi AP, while excluding probe requests and non-Wi-Fi messages.

Abstract translation: 通过在探测定时器到达中等信道时间（MedChannelTime）之前，验证是否已经检测到指示存在Wi-Fi AP的消息，可以缩短Wi-Fi发现期间未被占用信道的信道监视周期。 例如，当在MedChannelTime期满之前没有检测到指示存在Wi-Fi AP的消息时，在清除信道评估期间检测一些信道活动的STA可能会中止监视Wi-Fi信道。 指示Wi-Fi AP的存在的消息可以包括从Wi-Fi AP发送或者去往Wi-Fi AP的任何Wi-Fi消息，而不包括探测请求和非Wi-Fi消息。
