    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method is performed by a wireless station. The method includes receiving from an access point (AP) a request for measurement of at least one link-quality parameter. The method further includes measuring the at least one link-quality parameter to generate a link-quality-parameter measurement. The method also includes determining, for the wireless station, an appropriate wireless-station category of a plurality of wireless-station categories. The plurality of wireless-station categories are defined based at least in part on the link-quality-parameter measurement. In addition, the method includes communicating with the AP in accordance with a transmission schedule corresponding to the plurality of wireless-station categories.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method is performed by a wireless station. The method includes determining that a wireless network provides relay service. The wireless network includes an access point and one or more relay nodes. The method further includes transmitting a relay-service desirability indication to the access point. The method also includes receiving a relay-service confirmation from the access point. The wireless station is operable to transmit at a first station-transmission power level during a first time period and a second station-transmission power level during a second time period. The second station-transmission power level is a reduced station-transmission power level as compared to the first station-transmission power level. In addition, the method includes transmitting an uplink transmission at the second station-transmission power level responsive to the relay-service confirmation from the access point.
