摘要:
A method for associating handheld calculators with a network host system of a classroom network that includes receiving a service set identifier (SSID) of the classroom network by a handheld calculator, wherein the SSID includes a network mode indicator, and operating the handheld calculator according to the network mode indicator. The method may also include operating the handheld calculator in a configuration mode in which the handheld calculator sends a request for association to the network host system, wherein the request includes a unique identifier of the first handheld calculator, and acceptance of the request by the network host system, wherein authentication information for the handheld calculator is stored by the network host system to indicate that the first handheld calculator is associated with the classroom network.

Embodiments of the invention provide a method for selectively identifying nodes implemented enhanced version of a protocol standard by creating a random locally administered MAC address and advertising said random locally administered MAC address as the address that implies a particular protocol amendment of a protocol standard.

A method of performing wireless communications. The method receives at a receiving unit a sequence of data blocks from a transmitting unit. The method also identifies at the receiving unit a first number of invalid sequential data blocks in the sequence and a second number of valid sequential data blocks in the sequence. The method also communicates from the receiving unit a wireless message to the transmitting unit. The wireless message comprises a first field that specifies the first number and a second field that specifies the second number—the encoding of the first field is operable to specify a different maximum than an encoding of the second field.

A device includes a peer-to-peer group owner processor. The device also includes a memory coupled to the peer-to-peer group owner processor. At least one client associated with the device is a legacy client, and the peer-to-peer group owner processor enters a listening state after a dozing state. The device consumes less power in the listening state than in an awake state.

Network circuitry and a method of operating the same in establishing and deleting a service flow in a wireless network. A network station receives a request, from an initiating network station, to establish a service flow. The network station receiving the request issues a response to that request, following which it expects an acknowledgement from the initiator. Upon absence of such an acknowledgement, the receiving station transmits a message, to the initiator, to explicitly delete the service flow. This ensures that the initiator is not placed into an ambiguous state of transmitting payload traffic to a receiver that is ignoring or not receiving that traffic, in the case in which the initiator is also the transmitter of the payload traffic. This circuitry and method also ensures that the initiator is not in an ambiguous state, in the case in which it is the intended receiver of the payload traffic.

A method and apparatus for eliminating wait for boot-up of an apparatus while simultaneously preventing increased power usage. The method includes predicting a boot-up schedule according to a determined usage schedule, and scheduling boot-up time according to the predicted boot-up schedule, wherein said boot-up schedule eliminates wait for boot-up while simultaneously preventing increased power usage.

A device comprising transceiver logic and control logic coupled to the transceiver logic. The control logic is adapted to use the transceiver logic to broadcast a signal comprising either a Request-to-Send (RTS) signal or a Clear-to-Send-to-Self (CTS2S) signal to a plurality of other devices. The signal is adapted to cause the plurality of other devices to refrain from transmitting data. After at least some of the plurality of other devices have received the signal, the transceiver logic transmits at least part of another signal using beamforming techniques.

An information handling system is powered by a battery. In response to determining that a remaining amount of power within the battery has fallen below a first threshold, power consumption of the information handling system is reduced by reducing at least one non-critical operation of the information handling system, while maintaining at least one critical operation of the information handling system. After reducing the at least one non-critical operation, it is increased in response to determining that the remaining amount of power within the battery has risen above a second threshold.
摘要:
A system for communicating protocol layer processing information is disclosed herein. A transmitter includes a protocol layer header generator that generators a header for a first protocol data unit. The header generator provides a first header comprising a first sequence number field that determines the order in which a receiving entity present the first data unit to higher protocol layer. The sequence number field varies in length. A receiver includes a protocol layer header parser that parses a header of a first protocol data unit. The header parser parses a first header comprising a first sequence number field that determines the order in which the first data unit is presented to a higher protocol layer. The sequence number field varies in length.
