20110044303 | DEVICE, SYSTEM, AND METHOD OF ADJUSTING A CONTENTION WINDOW FOR WIRELESS TRANSMISSION - Device, system, and method of adjusting a contention window for wireless transmission. In some embodiments, a wireless communication unit may control transmissions of a wireless communication device in a wireless area network during a contention period, wherein the wireless communication unit is to select a back-off period within a contention-window having a contention-window size, which is adjusted based on a number of stations included in the wireless area network, and wherein the wireless communication unit is to wait for the back-off period prior to beginning a wireless transmission during the contention period. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 02-24-2011 |
20110130149 | Load balancing techniques in wireless networks - Techniques are described that provide load balancing in wireless networks. For instance, a device (e.g., a first access point) may receive one or more current operational characteristics for each of one or more neighbor APs. Also, the first AP may determine a received signal strength for each of these neighbor AP(s). In turn, the first AP selects one or more reportable neighbor APs from these neighbor APs. Further, the first AP transmits a beacon. This beacon includes, for each reportable neighbor AP, the corresponding one or more current operational characteristics and the corresponding received signal strength. | 06-02-2011 |
20120300645 | METHOD, APPARATUS AND SYSTEM OF MANAGING AN ENCODER OUTPUT RATE BASED UPON WIRELESS COMMUNICATION LINK FEEDBACK - Machine-readable media, methods, apparatus and system for managing an encoder output rate at least partially based upon wireless communication link feedback are described. In some embodiments, a device driver of the system may generate link information indicating quality of a wireless communication link between the system and another system, wherein the link information is generated at least partially based upon at least one of media access layer (MAC) information and physical layer information of the system. A system managing entity of the system may manage an output rate of an encoder of the system at least partially based upon the link information. | 11-29-2012 |

20090274088 | Methods and Apparatus for Enabling Relay-Model Tethered Data Calls in Wireless Networks - A method and apparatus for enabling a data call in a wireless network comprising determining if the data call in a packet app is a relay model tethered data call; and determining if default link flow type Flow 1 is deactivated for the data call. In one aspect, one or more of the following is also included: determining if the type of the data call is CDMA 2000 1X, IS-95A/B, EVDO Rev. 0, EVDO Rev. A or EVDO Rev. B; determining the type of the packet app; requesting to deactivate default link flow type Flow 1; and determining if default link flow type Flow 1 is deactivated for the data call; and wherein the type of the packet app is of a default packet app (DPA), a multi-flow packet app (MPA), an enhanced multi-flow packet app (EMPA) or a multi-link multi-flow packet app (MMPA). | 11-05-2009 |
20100034124 | TETHERED DATA CALL WITH CONTINUOUS APPLICATION - Commonly, when a mobile device tethers to a computer, one Internet Protocol address is provided. When an embedded application runs continuously, such as with a Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem application, tethered applications can be prohibited from operating. If the continuous application is not active, then the continuous application can be disconnected and thus the tethered application can function. | 02-11-2010 |
20100115072 | NON-NETWORK INITIATED QUALITY OF SERVICE (QoS) - Systems and methods for automatically providing different levels of Quality of Service (QoS) to applications in a communication network having various content providers. Typically, content is provided to applications that are unable to specify applicable QoS. A service node is provided to coordinate transfer of data to the applications. The service node further cooperates with an access terminal running the applications to specify the QoS. | 05-06-2010 |
20100124211 | REDUCING AN OCCURRENCE OF A VOIP CALL ON HOLD FROM BEING DROPPED IN EV-DO SYSTEMS - Methods, apparatuses, and systems for reducing an occurrence of a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) call from being disconnected in an Evolution Data Only (EV-DO) system are disclosed. The VoIP call is placed on hold and at least one keep-alive packet is issued to prevent a radio link from disconnecting. The at least one keep-alive packet is issued at least while the VoIP call associated with the radio link is on hold and is configured to reset a dormancy timer for the call at one or more network entities. | 05-20-2010 |

20100025640 | Loading quantum dots into thermo-responsive microgels by reversible transfer from organic solvents to water - Method for the preparation of inorganic-NP-composite microgels is based on the reversible transfer of microgels between water and an organic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran (THF). The method is used to produce semiconductor nanocrystals, often referred to as quantum dots (QDs) which are well known for their unique optical, electrical, magnetic and catalytic properties, as the inorganic NPs, recognizing that the best quality QDs are synthesized by a high temperature process in organic media, and have their surface covered with hydrophobic ligands (such as trioctylphosphine oxide, TOPO) that render the NPs insoluble in an aqueous solution. | 02-04-2010 |
