Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating data in a wireless communications network are described herein. One innovative aspect of the present disclosure includes a method of communicating in a wireless network. The wireless network includes an access point and a relay. The method includes receiving, at the access point, an association request from a client. The association request is forwarded by a relay. The method further includes determining a success or failure of association. The method further includes transmitting to the relay, when association fails, an indication that one or more subsequent messages from the client should be filtered.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication are disclosed. In one implementation an apparatus for wireless communications is provided. The apparatus includes a receiver configured to receive a wake-up message that is a portion of a wake-up sequence. In certain implementations, the apparatus further includes a processing system operably coupled to the receiver and configured to wake the receiver for a period of time. The period of time can exceed at least a transmission period of the wake-up sequence plus a transmission period of the wake-up message. The apparatus can further include a transmitter configured to transmit a message acknowledging receipt of the wake-up message.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for wireless communication are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes generating, by an apparatus, a first message comprising a first indicator indicating a number of beacon intervals that each have a window during which one or more devices are permitted to communicate with the apparatus; and transmitting, by the apparatus, the first message.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for wireless communication are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes generating, by an apparatus, a restricted access window message indicating devices not associated with the apparatus are permitted to communicate with the apparatus during a time period defined by the message; and transmitting, by the apparatus, the generated message.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for wireless communication are disclosed. In one aspect an access point includes a processor configured to generate a message identifying a time period during which the apparatus is to communicate data with one or more wireless devices, the message further including an indicator indicating a wireless communication flow direction during the time period. The access point further includes a transmitter configured to transmit the generated message.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for wireless communication are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes generating, by an apparatus, a message identifying a specific device or a set of specific devices, and generating the message to identify a time period during which the identified specific device or identified set of specific devices are permitted to communicate with the apparatus, and transmitting, by the apparatus, the generated message.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatus, and computer readable medium manage the utilization of a wireless medium capable of transmitting multiple channels of data simultaneously. A plurality of messages are stored in a queue for transmission on the wireless medium. A wireless medium utilization for transmitting a first message over the multi-channel medium is determined. Each of the messages stored in the queue is delayed based at least in part on the determined wireless medium utilization. In some embodiments, a message may be delayed based at least in part on a state of a connection used by the message. For example, if the connection is in a ramp-up or slow start phase, the message may not be delayed. Messages may also be delayed based on a type of the message. For example, messages generated by interactive applications, such as web browsers or instant messaging applications may not be delayed.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus that may determine operation for speed frame exchange. According to certain aspects, a method for wireless communications by an apparatus is provided. The operations may be performed by a station, for example, by an access point initiating a speed frame exchange. The method generally includes indicating, via a value of at least one bit of a field of a frame of a sequence of frames being exchanged between the apparatus and a device, whether the apparatus is initiating a subsequent exchange of a sequence of frames, and transmitting the frame to the device.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for dynamically adapting channel access or transmission parameters based upon an identified channel access parameter or previously used transmission parameter are disclosed. In an aspect, an electronic device for communication over a wireless network is disclosed. The electronic device comprises a processor configured to generate a message that identifies one rule of a plurality of rules. Each of the plurality of rules defines a process for adapting a value of a communication parameter based on an identified channel access parameter. Also, each of the plurality of rules provides a particular quality of service and a particular priority for communication with the electronic device. The electronic device further comprises a transceiver configured to transmit the message to a station.
