Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of providing a communication service and an apparatus for performing the method, in which the method includes determining a first user group including a selected user terminal to which a communication service is provided by a communication device belonging to a cell coverage area, determining a second user group including at least one candidate user terminal selected from a plurality of candidate user terminals based on interference information affecting the selected user terminal, and determining the first user group and the second user group to be a final user group to which the communication service is to be provided by the communication device.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of transmitting and receiving a frame for a multi-user multiple-input and multiple-output (MU-MIMO) communication in an access point (AP), the method including determining at least one transmission station (STA), transmitting, to the transmission STA, an uplink multi-user poll (UL MU poll) frame requesting a data frame, receiving the data frame from the at least one transmission STA simultaneously, and transmitting an acknowledgement (ACK) frame to the at least one transmission STA in response to the receiving.
Abstract:
A physical layer low power communication method and apparatus are provided. The physical layer low power communication method may include receiving a data packet from a transmitter, measuring a channel quality using a preamble and signal field information included in the data packet and determining whether recovery of the data packet is possible, calculating an error generation rate according to a determination result, and discarding the data packet and operating in a power save mode when the error generation rate is higher than a predetermined reference.
Abstract:
Provided is a method and apparatus for reducing wireless traffic by controlling a management frame of an access point (AP) in a wireless local area network (WLAN), the AP including a beacon frame generator to generate a beacon frame, a probe response generator to generate a probe response frame, and a management frame control unit to control at least one of a period of the beacon frame and a number of retransmissions of the probe response frame, based on at least one of a power consumption of the AP, a system load imposed on a system including the AP, and an emergency level related to whether an emergency occurs.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for scanning a channel in a wireless local area network (WLAN) system may be disclosed including, extracting at least one target channel from among a plurality of channels present in at least one frequency band, based on channel scanning record information, generating a basic service set (BSS) existing information element (IE) including at least one BSS existing channel bitmap indicating information associated with a channel in which at least one access point (AP) exists, based on channel information received from at least one neighboring station (STA), determining a scanning rank of the at least one target channel, using the BSS existing channel IE, and identifying a target AP through scanning the at least one target channel, based on the scanning rank.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an access point apparatus for configuring a next generation wireless communication and a method of operating the access point apparatus. The access point apparatus for configuring the next generation wireless communication may include a verification unit to verify a first available band associated with at least one of a first band and a second band; and a configuration unit to configure a backbone network with another access point apparatus positioned within a predetermined distance, through the verified first available band.
Abstract:
Provided are a transmitter and a method for transmitting a data block in a wireless communication system. The method comprises the following steps: deciding the number of bits (s) and encoders (NES) to allocate to one axis of a signal constellation; encoding an information bit based on the s and the NES and generating a coded block; parsing the coded block based on the s and the NES and generating a plurality of frequency sub-blocks; and transmitting the plurality of frequency sub-blocks to a receiver.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a technology that enables an access point, configured to manage a network, to control a transmission schedule of buffered data and enables a terminal to obtain information associated with the transmission schedule in a wireless local area network (WLAN) environment. An apparatus for controlling a transmission schedule of buffered data in a WLAN according to an embodiment may group terminals based on at least one of a service characteristic and a traffic characteristic of each of the terminals, assign group information to each of the grouped groups to wake up in a different time, and transmit at least one of delivery traffic indication map (DTIM) information and the buffered data based on the assigned group information.
