摘要:
Systems, methods, and apparatus for extended reverse direction grant in a WLAN are provided. In one aspect, a method for communication using a channel that is common to a plurality of nodes is provided. The method includes transmitting first data to the plurality of nodes using a first transmission resource. The first data is transmitted within a transmit opportunity time interval and comprises a first indicator. The method further includes receiving, in response to the first indicator, at least one data transmission from at least one of the nodes, respectively. The at least one data transmitted using at least one second transmission resource, respectively, and is received within the transmit opportunity time interval.

Methods and apparatus for delayed block acknowledgments in a WLAN. In an aspect, a method is provided for communication with one or more nodes. The method includes transmitting to the one or more nodes a block comprising data and a first bit indicating no acknowledgements for the data are to be transmitted from the one or more nodes. The method also includes determining whether a selected time location within a transmit time duration has been reached, wherein if the selected time location has been reached, transmitting to the one or more nodes a second bit indicating that the one or more nodes are to transmit one or more acknowledgements, respectively, for the data. The method also includes receiving at least one acknowledgment for the data within a remaining portion of the transmit time duration.

In an aspect, a method includes transmitting data within a transmit interval to a plurality of the nodes, wherein the data comprises a first indicator. The method also includes receiving, in response to the first indicator, a data transmission from at least one of the nodes, wherein the data transmission was transmitted using a selected transmission resource and is received within the transmit interval. In an aspect, an apparatus includes a receiver to receive, within a time interval, first data over a common channel, the first data being decodable by other nodes. The apparatus also includes a controller to determine whether the first data comprises a first indicator, and a transmitter to transmit second data within the time interval using selected transmission resources, if the first data comprises the first indicator.

Methods and apparatus for reverse link acknowledgement in a wireless local area network. A method includes receiving, at a first node, a data communication over a common channel, the data communication being decodable by other nodes. The method also includes determining transmission resources from the data communication, wherein the transmission resources are different for each node, and transmitting a response over the common channel using the determined transmission resources. An apparatus includes a transmitter configured to transmit to a plurality of nodes a data communication over the common channel, and a receiver configured to receive responses from the plurality of nodes, wherein each response was sent using different transmission resources determined from the data communication.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus for determining the quality of service of a network are disclosed. A disclosed methodology for determining quality of service for a network includes determining at least two metrics reflective of network parameters in at least two different protocol layers of the communication network. The metrics are then compared with respective threshold values, and quality of service for the network is determined based on the comparison of the metrics with the respective threshold values. Corresponding apparatus executing the methodology are also disclosed.
