Abstract: Passive tracking of an electronic device (and, more generally, the anonymous use of location-based services) is avoided by identifying the electronic device with different addresses in a block of addresses when transmitting probe requests. In particular, the electronic device may request and then receive the block of addresses from an address-management server. Subsequently, when a probe request is transmitted ( e.g. , to an access point), the electronic device may use one of the addresses in the block of addresses instead of the media access control ( MAC ) address. Furthermore, whenever subsequent probe requests are transmitted, the electronic device may include a different address in the block of addresses.

Abstract: Power consumption in a receiving device is avoided by receiving packets from a transmitting device in a first band of frequencies (such as around 60 GHz) and providing acknowledgments in a second band of frequencies that is different than the first band of frequencies (such as around 5 GHz). These out-of-band acknowledgments may allow the receiving device to avoid transmissions in the first band of frequencies and the associated power consumption. Moreover, the transmissions by the transmitting device in the first band of frequencies and the second band of frequencies may be synchronized so that packets are transmitted in the first band of frequencies when transmission in the second band of frequencies is enabled. In these ways, this communication technique may improve the performance of the transmitting device and the receiving device.

Abstract: In order to maintain performance during wireless communication, a transmitting electronic device may selectively perform a remedial action based on a monitored throughput. In particular, the transmitting electronic device may monitor communication with one or more receiving electronic devices, and may calculate a throughput metric based on the monitored communication. For example, the transmitting electronic device may monitor data rates, may receive feedback about the communication from at least one of the receiving electronic devices, and may determine an observed distribution of the data rates. Then, the transmitting electronic device may compare the throughput metric to a threshold value. If the throughput metric is less than the threshold value, the transmitting electronic device may perform the remedial action. This remedial action may include: denying subsequent association requests, discontinuing an existing association; and/or notifying a cellular-telephone network that the remedial action was needed.

Abstract: To maintain performance during wireless communication, a transmitting electronic device may selectively perform a remedial action based on a received power in a channel during time intervals between received packets (e.g., due to interference) and/or a metric associated with the measured received power. When the received power is less than a threshold value (e.g., when the interference is insufficient to stop transmission by the transmitting electronic device), the transmitting electronic device performs the remedial action based on the measured received power and/or the metric. For example, the remedial action may include: selecting a modulation technique; selecting the receiving electronic device; selecting an antenna pattern for the one or more antennas; reducing a transmit power; selecting a data rate; determining a cumulative distribution function; and/or estimating a channel capacity. Next, the transmitting electronic device transmits a packet in the channel to a receiving electronic device.

Abstract: In order to configure an access point, the access point requests information specifying an associated cloud-based controller when the access point is first turned on at a user location. In particular, the access point may provide, to a configuration device, a controller query requesting information specifying a unique network address of a cloud-based controller associated with the access point. This controller query may include an identifier of the access point (such as a serial number). Then, the access point receives, from the configuration device, the information specifying the unique network address of the cloud-based controller, such as a fully qualified domain name of the cloud-based controller. Note that the cloud-based controller may be one of multiple cloud-based controllers from different providers, and the access point may be associated with the cloud-based controller based on the received information specifying unique network address.
