20130322286 | TROUBLESHOOTING WI-FI CONNECTIVITY BY MEASURING THE ROUND TRIP TIME OF PACKETS SENT WITH DIFFERENT MODULATION RATES - The application relates to a “wireless communication network including a station and an access point” which is in particular a Wi-Fi network according to the IEEE 802.11 standards. Internet service providers are searching for ways to get a better understanding of the end-user's wireless environment including link quality and performance. The proposed method calculates a performance value based on measured round trip times which are sent at different modulation rates. Based the change of performance in dependence of the modulation rate conclusions about the possible source of performance problems can be drawn, in particular it can be distinguished between (Bluetooth) interference and distance between station and access point being too large. | 12-05-2013 |
20150043371 | METHOD FOR TESTING A WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK INCLUDING A STATION AND AN ACCESS POINT - The method for testing a wireless communications network including a station and an access point comprises the steps of sending broadcast packets from the station to the access point in a lower frequency band and waiting for confirmation, calculating a packet loss in the lower frequency band based on the number of sent and confirmed broadcast packets, and calculating a packet loss for a higher frequency band by taking into account the calculated packet loss of the lower frequency band and by using a correlation function between the lower frequency and the higher frequency band. The wireless communications network is in particular a communications network according to one of the IEEE 802.11 recommendations and the broadcast packets are in particular address resolution protocol packets. | 02-12-2015 |
20150304429 | NETWORK FOR MULTIMEDIA CONTROL COMPRISING FUNCTIONAL ENTITIES HAVING PUBLISHER AND/OR SUBSCRIBER FUNCTIONALITY, AND METHOD FOR INITIATING A MULTIMEDIA SESSION - The network for multimedia control comprises User Interfaces, Session Controllers and Media Endpoints as functional entities for initiating a session, the entities having each publisher and/or subscriber functionality and communicating on topics. The network is in particular a Data Distribution Service for Real-Time Systems (DDS) network and the entities act as Domain Participants of the DDS network for providing multimedia signalling control as a domain of the DDS network. | 10-22-2015 |
20150312955 | METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING A WIRELESS NETWORK CONNECTION - The invention proposes a method for optimizing a wireless network connection when at least one of the devices comprises a configurable antenna. For avoiding Hidden Nodes problems, it is proposed to modify the configurable antenna in such a way that the number of third network devices seen only by the network device having the configurable antenna is minimized. | 10-29-2015 |
