20090109855 | CHANNEL ASSIGNMENT FOR A MULTI-CHANNEL DUAL-RADIO MESH BACKHAUL - In an example embodiment, a method for determining backhaul channel assignments for multi-channel dual radio mesh nodes. The method comprises acquiring collision domain data for each access point of an associated mesh network. A cost function is calculated for each access point of the associated mesh network, the cost function assigning a weighted value for each access point in a collision domain based on a number of access points in the collision domain. Backhaul channel assignments for selected for each access point that minimizes the cost function. | 04-30-2009 |
20090207736 | CONSTRAINED DYNAMIC PATH SELECTION AMONG MULTIPLE COMMUNICATION INTERFACES - Method and apparatus are disclosed for constrained dynamic path selection among multiple available communication interfaces. In some embodiments selection logic is operatively coupled with a number of link-layer interfaces to select a set of link-layer interfaces that satisfy a set of congestion constraint conditions. Metric logic is operatively coupled with the link-layer interfaces to calculate a metric value for each link-layer interface in the set. Switch logic is operatively coupled with the selection logic and metric logic to assign a data stream a link-layer interface in the set of interfaces according to its metric value to optimize communication performance. | 08-20-2009 |
20100157863 | Power management for wireless networks - Embodiments provide techniques for device power management in wireless networks. For instance, an apparatus may include a power management module, and a transceiver module. The power management module determines a beacon interval and a wakeup interval. The transceiver module to send a transmission to one or more remote devices that includes the beacon interval and the wakeup interval. The beacon interval indicates a time interval between consecutive beacon transmissions of the apparatus, and the wakeup interval indicates a time interval between when the apparatus receives two consecutive beacons from a peer device. | 06-24-2010 |
20100165955 | CENTRAL CONTROLLER AND METHODS FOR INTERFERENCE MITIGATION IN TDMA NETWORKS USING RANDOMLY ALLOCATED SERVICE PERIODS - Embodiments of a central controller and methods for interference mitigation in TDMA networks are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the central controller mitigates co-channel interference by randomizing locations of channel time allocations within superframes. | 07-01-2010 |

20120300683 | COMBINED DEVICE AND SERVICE DISCOVERY TECHNIQUE IN STATIONS SUPPORTING TUNNELED DIRECT LINK SETUP (TDLS) - A tunneled direct link set-up (TDLS) capable wireless network may comprise a router such as an access point (AP) and a plurality of stations (STA) including service consumer and service provider station. A service consumer station may generate and send a layer-2 query frame to the plurality of stations. A service provider station may generate a layer-2 service frame in response to receiving the layer-2 query frame. The service consumer station may discover the service provider station and the services offered by the service provider station based on the layer-2 service frame. Also, the service consumer may discover the service provider station using layer-2 query frame and may discover the services offered by the service provider station using higher layer service discovery procedure. | 11-29-2012 |
