摘要:
A method for wirelessly transferring data between nodes may include periodically waking a receiving node from a sleep mode to a receive mode and returning the receiving node to the sleep mode, where, in the receive mode, the receiving node samples a plurality of wake-up channels; transmitting at least one wake-up preamble packet by a transmitting node on at least one of the plurality of wake-up channels; receiving, by the receiving node while in the receive mode, the wake-up preamble packet; transmitting, by the receiving node and responsive to receiving the wake-up preamble packet, an acknowledgement; transmitting, by the transmitting node and responsive to receiving the acknowledgement, a data frame on at least one data channel; and/or receiving, by the receiving node, the data frame. Some methods may include estimating a wake-up time of the receiving node and/or performing a clear channel assessment prior to transmitting the wake-up preamble packet.

A data communication method includes providing a sender node having a data packet of information. The data packet is sent to each of a plurality of heterogeneous transmitter devices. The data packet is wirelessly transmitted from each of the transmitter devices to a receiver node.

摘要:
A method for providing electronic communications between wireless nodes includes wirelessly transmitting data from a transmitting one of the nodes to a plurality of receiving ones of the nodes. A respective first acknowledgment tone is wirelessly transmitted from each of the receiving nodes to the transmitting node and to each other one of the receiving nodes. Each first acknowledgment tone is transmitted in response to the respective receiving node receiving the transmitted data. Each of the first acknowledgment tones is transmitted in a respective, unique time slot. At least one second acknowledgment tone is wirelessly transmitted from at least one of the nodes to each other one of the nodes. The second acknowledgment tone is transmitted dependent upon whether a group of received first acknowledgment tones matches a group of expected-to-be-received first acknowledgment tones.
