20100157971 | Power-efficient media access techniques for wireless networks - Techniques for media access in wireless networks are disclosed. For instance, embodiments may provide a time interval for accessing a wireless communications channel. In addition, embodiments may prevent channel access during the time interval by stations incapable of employing a first channel access technique. This access technique employs an access probability P. | 06-24-2010 |
20100182990 | Apparatus and Method of Controlling Transmission in Reverse Direction - Briefly, a wireless communication system that includes an Initiator and a Responder to transmit an aggregation of data units in a reverse direction is provided. The Initiator includes a medium access controller capable of allocating a time slot for exchanging one or more transmissions of aggregation of data units with the Responder. The medium access controller includes a channel access scheme, which is able to allocate the time slot for the Responder to transmit the aggregation of data units in the reverse direction, and to grant Originator rights of the Initiator to the Responder within said time slot. | 07-22-2010 |
20120082040 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR COLLISION DETECTION IN WIDER BANDWIDTH OPERATION - Embodiments of systems and methods for providing collision detection in a wider bandwidth are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed. | 04-05-2012 |
20120140646 | Method and Device to Improve Channel Coexistence Using Non-Contiguous Channels of a Wireless Network - A method and device. The device is to use a first frequency segment of a wireless non-contiguous channel to monitor non-operating channels within an operating range of a wireless network; and use a second frequency segment of the wireless channel as a communication channel of the wireless network. | 06-07-2012 |
