    Abstract: Techniques for establishing a dynamic ad-hoc wireless network are disclosed. A node transitions between wake and sleep modes during periods defined as beacon intervals. Before a network connection is established and while it is awake, the node transmits network connection request and also listens for network activity. If a beacon or response message is not detected while the node is listening, the node enters sleep mode and thereby conserves power. The node optionally changes the duration of its detection period and/or the time at which it listens for network activity relative to the start of each beacon interval. Information elements are optionally included with transmitted beacons or response messages.

    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for controlling transmit power amplification in a wireless transmitting device. A processor receives data to determine whether a communication channel from a transmitting device to a receiving device is strong enough to support a target data transmit rate of the devices with a power amplifier either on or off. The processor controls a switching device between a data transmitter circuit and the transmitter's antenna based on the quality of the communication channel. In a first state, the switching device connects the data transmitter circuit to the power amplifier to increase the strength of the signal communicated to the antenna. In a second state, the switching device bypasses the power amplifier. The power amplifier is turned off when the switch is in the second state, thereby decreasing the power consumed by the transmitting device as it transmits data at the target data transmit rate.

    Abstract: A wireless network device includes a signal receiving module that receives an RF signal, and a signal processing module that includes an automatic gain control (AGC) module and that generates control signals when a gain of the AGC module changes based on the RF signal. The network device includes a control module that selectively measures N time intervals between one of adjacent and non-adjacent control signals, wherein N is an integer greater than 1, and that selectively determines that the RF signal is a radar signal when the N time intervals are substantially equal.

    Abstract: The present specification describes techniques and apparatuses that enable power conservation in a wireless network. In some cases these techniques and apparatuses enable power conservation during a discover phase and for a wireless network subject to a government mandate requiring a device of the network to passively search for radar transmission prior to establishing communication with another device of the network.

    Abstract: In a peer-to-peer wireless communication network, a first device listens during an advertise state for polling signals from second devices on a first channel included in a plurality of channels. During the advertise state a response to a first polling signal transmitted by one of the second devices on the first channel is transmitted from the first device, if the first polling signal is received on the first channel during the advertise state. A second channel is selected at the first device from the plurality of channels for use during a search state of the first device. A second polling signal is transmitted with the first device, on the selected second channel during the search state. The first device listens during the search state for polling response signals on the selected second channel, the polling response signals responsive to the second polling signal.
