  • Patent number: 11665728
    Abstract: An Information Handling System (IHS) includes executable instructions for establishing a communication session conveyed through a first band provided by an access point having a multi-band simultaneous protocol. When the instructions determine that the communication session should be conveyed through a second band provided by the access point (AP), they transmit one or more communication session parameters associated with the communication session to the access point to prepare a second band provided by the AP to convey the communication session. After transmitting the communication session parameters to the second band MAC component of the IHS and the second band MAC component of the AP, the instructions then initiate a switch over to the second band.

  • Patent number: 11432187
    Abstract: A wireless communication link between a wireless access point and a mobile communication device supports multiple data flows. Each of the data flows can be configured to convey a different type of data. Based on monitoring events/conditions such as conveyance of communications over each of the multiple data flows, a communication management resource selectively assigns data flow compression settings to each of the multiple data flows. Based on the assigned compression settings, the mobile communication device and/or wireless access point communicate packet delivery data (such as network address information) over the data flows. For example, in accordance with the generated compression settings, packet delivery data for data packets conveyed over a first data flow are compressed, while packet delivery data for data packets conveyed over a second data flow are not compressed.
