摘要:
Techniques for radio resource measurement (RRM) that support directionality, as well as scheduled media access techniques are described. For instance, a measurement request may be transmitted from a first device to a second device. This measurement request directs the second device to take one or more measurements of a wireless channel. Various characteristics for the one or more measurements may be included in the measurement request. For example, the measurement request may indicate at least one directional parameter and at least one timing parameter for the one or more measurements. In response to the request, the first device receives a measure report that includes measured values for each of the one or more measurements.

When a device in one wireless network receives interfering transmissions from an overlapping neighboring network, the neighboring network may be notified of the interference so that non-interfering schedules can be worked out. In one embodiment, the device receiving, the interference may broadcast its own communications schedule. Device(s) in the interfering network may pick up that schedule, and pass it on to their controller, which can rearrange its own network schedule to be non-interfering. In another embodiment, the device receiving the interference may notify its own network controller with the pertinent information, and that controller may contact the controller of the interfering network to coordinate non-interfering schedules.

A wireless communication device and a method of operating an antenna training process to discover first and second communication paths between at least two stations, to rank according to a quality criterion transmitting and receiving modes of an antenna, to report best transmitting mode and best receiving mode for transmitting and receiving signals over said first and second communication paths and to establish a communication link on a selected communication path based on the quality of the transmitting mode and said receiving mode.
摘要:
A neighbor discovery protocol enables a network coordinator to provide time periods during which different classes of devices produce training sequences. The coordinator can transmit information about these time periods in a plurality of different directions so that in-range devices with directional antenna systems receive the communication. The coordinator can also compile interference reports during the neighbor discovery period and thereafter. These reports may be useful in determining whether or not spatial reuse is appropriate between two particular nodes in a given link, in a particular direction.

摘要:
In a wireless communications network containing network devices capable of both directional and omnidirectional communications, a network controller may arrange a series of superframes into groups of multiple consecutive superframes, in which only one superframe in each group contains an omnidirectional beacon, and the remainder of the superframes in the group contain only directional beacons.
