    摘要: Various embodiments are directed to a wireless access point capable of reserving a wireless communication channel by sending a quiet message to multiple legacy devices. The quiet message may include data identifying periodic quiet durations during which the legacy devices cannot access the wireless communication channel. The wireless access point may send a polling schedule to the multiple low power wireless devices. The polling schedule may include data identifying the periodic quiet durations. The wireless access point may then poll the multiple low power wireless devices during the periodic quiet durations. The low power wireless devices can exchange data with the wireless access point during the quiet durations. The quiet message sent to the legacy devices guarantees that the legacy devices will not use the specified channel during the quiet durations. Thus, communications with the low power wireless devices may occur without interference from the legacy devices.

    摘要: Generally, arrangements for enabling direct medium access control (MAC) sublayer data frames are described herein. Embodiments may comprise logic such as hardware and/or code to reduce the size of a packet by determining a frame in the MAC sublayer, inserting the frame in the signal field of a preamble to transmit, transmitting the direct MAC data frame as a packet, communicating that the packet is a direct MAC data frame, and parsing and interpreting the direct MAC data frame at the receiving device. Embodiments may determine and transmit and/or receive and interpret direct MAC data frames.

    摘要: Embodiments may define traffic priorities to facilitate transmissions for wireless communications devices. Many embodiments comprise MAC sublayer logic to generate and transmit management frames such as beacon frames, association response frames, reassociation response frames, and probe response frames with an access category for low power consumption stations or sensor stations comprising a parameter record defining a contention window that is the earliest contention window to open amongst contention windows defined for the access categories for traffic. In some embodiments, the MAC sublayer logic may store the parameter record sets for access categories in memory, in logic, or in another manner that facilitates transmission of the frames. Some embodiments may receive and detect communications with frames comprising the access categories and store a parameter set for one or more of the access categories in a management information base.

    摘要: A mobile station in a wireless network provides a presence indication when in a power saving state. The presence indication is sent periodically, and the period is dependent on whether the mobile station is stationary or in motion. The period may also be dependent on an asset protection level of the mobile station.

    摘要: Embodiments may implement a new hierarchical data structure for traffic indication mapping to facilitate transmissions for wireless communications devices. Many embodiments comprise MAC sublayer logic to generate and transmit management frames such as beacon frames with a partial virtual bitmap based upon the hierarchical data structure for traffic indication mapping. In some embodiments, the MAC sublayer logic may store the traffic indication map and/or the traffic indication map structure in memory, in logic, or in another manner that facilitates transmission of the frames. Some embodiments may receive, detect, and decode communications with frames comprising the partial virtual bitmap based upon the hierarchical data structure. In some embodiments, indications of buffered data for pages, blocks, sub-blocks, and/or stations may be inverted. In several embodiments, a new association identifier (AID) structure is defined for the new hierarchical data structure for traffic indication mapping.

    摘要: Embodiments of a user station (STA) and methods for synchronizing with devices in a wireless communication network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a STA receives a first beacon from a device in the first social network. The STA may synchronize to the first social network based on time synchronization information in the first beacon. The STA may transmit the time synchronization information of the first beacon to a second social network. A portion of a coverage area of the second social network may be outside a coverage area of the first social network.
