摘要:
Briefly, a method and apparatus that may establish a secured direct link between a first station and a second station of wireless local area network. The establishment of this secured direct link may be done by an access point that may exchange protocol messages between the first station the second station and the access point.
摘要:
There are presented a method, device and system for selecting channels to be scanned by a wireless device that seeks to associate with a network. A wireless device such as for example a station 20 may determine the area in which it is located, identify channels used for association in such area and select such identified channels for scanning. The invention may order the identified channels for scanning based on prior associations of the station or based on characteristics of such channels or of access points transmitting on such channels. Such criteria may be collected and stored in an associative history of a station, which may include, for example, the time of past associations on a channel, the performance of an access point in prior associations or other criteria.
摘要:
Briefly, a method and apparatus that may enable and/or disable of a packet protection mechanism based on a value of an adaptable threshold. The value of the adaptable threshold may be determined from a collision rate of packets transmitted over a wireless local area network and from detection of hidden nodes.
摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, apparatus and system which may include selecting, based on a predetermined criterion, a modulation type and/or a protection mechanism to be used for transmission of a data packet, e.g., in wireless LAN communication system. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

摘要:
Briefly, a method and apparatus to estimate a collision rate parameter by manipulating a first probability value with a second probability value. The first probability value may be the probability of an attempt to transmit a data packet within a desired time slot of a contention window. The second probability value may be a probability of data packet transmitted from the desired time slot within the contention window to collide with an at least one other data packet transmitted by other station of wireless communication network.

Briefly, a method and apparatus to a channel access parameter to mobile units of a wireless communication network. The channel access parameter may be selected based on the probability of collisions between packets of the wireless network.
摘要:
Systems, methods, and devices for managing application communications are described herein. In some aspects, a wireless device is configured to execute a plurality of applications and to communicate with a communication network. The wireless device includes a processor configured to receive information from an application, via an application programming interface. The information is indicative of a transmit delay tolerance. The processor is further configured to receive, via the application programming interface, a packet from the application. The wireless device further includes a network driver configured to determine when to transmit the packet based on the received transmit delay tolerance.
