Abstract:
Presented herein are mechanisms to reduce collisions in deployments with Wi-Fi and Shared Access LTE (SAC-LTE) equipment as well SAC-LTE equipment from multiple operators. The mechanisms enhance the baseline energy detection mechanism by incorporating methods to decode cross-technology physical layer elements and media access control (MAC) layer elements in the Wi-Fi system to elements in the SAC-LTE system. The methods described improve the detection potential for transmitters, thereby reducing chances of cross-technology collisions.
Abstract:
A method is provided for minimizing cross-technology interference with data transmissions from a wireless device in a shared spectrum. The wireless device obtains data to be wirelessly transmitted in a transmission burst in a first radio access technology (RAT) format over a shared spectrum. The wireless device generates a preamble comprising assistance information related to the transmission burst. The preamble comprises a first preamble portion in the first RAT format and a second preamble portion in a second RAT format. The wireless device transmits the preamble followed by the transmission burst.
Abstract:
In a wireless local area network (WLAN) that includes one or more wireless access points capable of serving one or more wireless clients, presence of one or more instances of interference from a particular type of interferer is detected on at least one channel in an unlicensed frequency band. In response to detecting the interference, a radio resource management process is biased to continue operation of at least one of the one or more access points, or individual radios of a multi-radio access point, on the channel to make at least some use of the channel for one or more wireless clients.
Abstract:
Modifications to frame/subframe structure are presented herein so that a wireless device can transmit its data within a fraction of a subframe. The device obtains data to be transmitted in an unlicensed spectrum and determines whether an entire subframe is required to completely communicate the data. If the data is small enough to not require the entire subframe, then the device generates a burst transmission to minimize the time period of the subframe used to communicate the data. The device transmits the burst transmission and a parameter indicating the duration of the burst transmission.
Abstract:
An access point is configured to control peer-to-peer wireless transmission in an area around the access point. The access point receives a message from a service providing device advertising a service. The access point receives another message from a service using device requesting the service. The access point determines whether the service using device or the service is prohibited in the area controlled by the access point. Responsive to a determination that the service using device is prohibited, the access point blocks the service using device from receiving the service. Responsive to a determination that the service is prohibited, the access point blocks the service providing device from providing the service.

Abstract:
Techniques are provided for determining, for at least one wireless access point in a wireless network, a number of first-time associations created with one or more wireless client devices in the wireless network. Based upon the determined number of first-time associations created, the number of discovery frames to be sent by the at least one wireless access point may be adjusted.
