    Abstract: Two separate radio frequency networks may be operated within interference distance from one another in a way which mitigates the possibility of interference. Using received signal strength indicator data, the nature of the interference may be determined without actually demodulating the interfering signal. The timing of the interfering signal and its characteristic features may be determined. Using that information, together with the probability that any given slot will actually be occupied by an interfering transmission, a statistics package may be developed which gives an indication of the probability of a transmission from the interferer at any given time. That package may be transmitted to other nodes in the same network. When a first node wishes to transmit information to a second node, the first node may analyze the statistics package received from the second node. The first node may thereby make a determination about when to actually initiate the transmission to the second node.

    Abstract: In a wireless network in which the base station has full duplex capability (can transmit on the downlink channel and simultaneously receive on the uplink channel), but the mobile stations have only half duplex capability (each can transmit on the uplink channel and receive on the downlink channel, but not simultaneously), the base station may transmit duplicate copies of multicast data in two or more frames. Some of the addressed mobile stations may be scheduled to receive the first frame and transmit during the second frame, while the other addressed mobile stations may be scheduled to transmit during the first frame and receive the second frame.

    Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention provides a method, comprising retransmitting Automatic Repeat request (ARQ) blocks from a subscriber station (SS) to a base station (BS) without waiting for a timer to expire or depending on an explicit NACK from the BS. An embodiment of the present invention may further comprise accomplishing the retransmission of ARQ blocks by performing ARQ acknowledgement state updates at the SS and BS that affect the other side at PHY frame boundary, keeping block transmission relationship to a PHY frame number at the SS, and positively deducing the outcome of a transmission at the sender by exploiting the temporal relationship between blocks transmitted in the same PHY frame.

    Abstract: Embodiments of wireless device and method for communicating in a wireless network are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed. In some embodiments, a wireless device establishes a link using a directional antenna in an initially selected direction with another wireless device. If the link in the initially selected direction deteriorates, the link may be reestablished in a previously identified alternate direction. In some embodiments, the initially selected direction and the alternate direction are jointly selected by both the first and second wireless devices.

    Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, an access point may preemptively broadcast an alternate channel to switch to, along with an indication of the beacon timing for the alternate channel, prior to any catastrophic interference. The access point may switch to the alternate channel in the event of interference on the original channel without attempting to broadcast the alternate channel during the interference event. A mobile user may then know in advance of the interference event which alternate channel the access point switched to and may switch to the alternate channel.

    Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, a client node transmits a wakeup notification message to a supporter node when the client node is in a higher power awake mode. The supporter node may transmit data, if any, to the client mode until there is no more data to be transmitted to the client node. The supporter node then transmits a done transmitting packet to the client mode when the buffer memory is empty to indicate there is no more data to be transmitted. Upon receiving a done transmitting packet, the client node may enter into a lower power sleep mode until a subsequent awake event. The wakeup notification message may be transmitted by the client node at a time or interval selected to provide a power savings to the client node.

    Abstract translation: 简而言之,根据本发明的一个实施例,当客户端节点处于较高功率唤醒模式时,客户端节点向支持者节点发送唤醒通知消息。 支持者节点可以将数据(如果有的话)发送到客户端模式,直到没有更多的数据被发送到客户端节点。 然后,当缓冲存储器为空时,支持者节点将完成的发送分组发送到客户端模式,以指示不再有要发送的数据。 在接收到完成的发送分组之后,客户端节点可以进入较低功率睡眠模式,直到后续的清醒事件。 唤醒通知消息可以由客户端节点在选择的时间或间隔中传送以向客户端节点提供功率节省。
