20080232311Method For Multi-Channel Resource Reservation in a Wireless Mesh Network - In a mesh network a multiband OFDM Alliance (MBOA) system provides higher channel access efficiency through a Distributed Reservation Protocol (DRP). A MBOA Physical layer (PHY) and a MBOA Medium Access Control (MAC) are used to increase the efficiency of the mesh network.09-25-2008
20090279487DISTRIBUTED MEDIUM ACCESS PROTOCOL FOR WIRELESS MESH NETWORKS - This invention defines a medium access protocol for the support of mesh networking in wireless communications. It defines a phase for intra-cell and a phase for inter-cell traffic. During the inter-cell traffic a beacon phase is used for the reservation of transmissions. In this phase also information about the mesh topology is included and parallel transmission are supported. Even though this medium access protocol is intended to be proposed in standardization of IEEE 802.11 mesh networks (802.11) it could be used in any wireless mesh network.11-12-2009

20100034091METHOD OF CONGESTION MANAGEMENT IN A WIRELESS MESH NETWORK - A method of congestion management in a wireless mesh network in which the CSMA/CA algorithm is used to access wireless medium, said network comprising a first station and at least one neighbouring station able to communicate directly with the first station, comprises:—broadcasting (02-11-2010
20100046449WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A method of allocating frequency channels in a wireless communication system comprising commo n channel framework enabled stations, said method comprising: —using by said common channel framework enabled stations a common frequency channel at common time intervals in order to determine a communication frequency channel on which a pair of common channel framework enabled stations will be allowed to exchange data frames, —periodically changing the common frequency channel at the beginning of each common time interval.02-25-2010
20100067506WIRELESS NETWORK - A wireless network (03-18-2010
20100195593METHOD OF GENERATING REPORT MESSAGES IN A NETWORK - The present invention relates to a method of generating a message by a station in a network in which stations 08-05-2010
20100260046CONGESTION CONTROL IN A COMMUNICATION NETWORK BASED ON THE CSMA/CA PROTOCOL - The present invention relates to a congestion control method for a communication system supporting layered radio channel structure for communication between at least a first communication device and a second communication device, the layered structure comprising at least a physical layer and a medium access layer. The communication system is arranged to offer a first type of service with a first priority order and a second type of service with a second priority order, in the communication system messages comprising a preamble and a payload can be transmitted between devices, each message being separated by at least a period corresponding to a minimum allowable period between two messages. In the method the first communication device first (a) generates (10-14-2010
20110149804PROXY MECHANISM FOR MESH-TYPE NETWORKS - The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for connecting a mesh type network via an access device (C) to another network (06-23-2011
