Publication number: 20240146793Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, components, devices and systems for low-latency parameter updates. In some aspects, a wireless communication device, such as a handset or an access point (AP), may transmit, to one or more wireless audio devices, an indication of a set of updated parameters associated with an extended personal area network (XPAN) of the wireless communication device. The wireless communication device may embed the indication of the set of updated parameters via a real-time protocol (RTP) header or in a padding section of a payload data of an audio data packet. A wireless audio device may extract the set of updated parameters from the audio data packet and may transmit an acknowledgement (ACK) to the wireless communication device. As a result of receiving an ACK from the wireless audio device(s), the wireless communication device may communicate with the wireless audio device(s) in accordance with the updated parameters.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Ahmed Ragab Elsherif, Laurent Wojcieszak, Richard Turner

Publication number: 20230337059Abstract: Systems and methods for selectively enabling multi-user (MU) communications are disclosed. In some implementations, an access point (AP) obtains packets associated with a traffic flow, and obtains at least one of service-level agreement (SLA) parameters associated with the traffic flow, attributes of the traffic flow, or network parameters associated with a basic service set (BSS) that includes the AP. The AP provides an indication of whether the traffic flow is suitable for transmission as a single-user (SU) multiple-input multiple output (MIMO) (SU-MIMO) communication, as an MU-MIMO communication, as an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) communication, or as a partial bandwidth (BW) MU-MIMO communication to a WLAN subsystem of the AP, the indication being based on one or more of the SLA parameters, the traffic flow attributes, or the network parameters. The AP initiates transmission of the one or more packets based on the indication.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 18, 2022Publication date: October 19, 2023Inventors: Ahmed Ragab ELSHERIF, Nicholas KUCHAREWSKI, Simon Jan BRAND, Srinivas KATAR, Xiaolong HUANG, Sandip HOMCHAUDHURI, Nathaniel David HOUGHTON, Aravind SEETHARAMAN

Publication number: 20230337044Abstract: An AP obtains service-level agreement (SLA) parameters indicating at least a delay bound for each of a plurality of traffic flows. The AP receives first packets of a first traffic flow, and delays their transmission for a delay period based on the data carried in the first packets being less than a first threshold. During the delay period, the AP receives second packets of the first traffic flow while also receiving packets of a second traffic flow, groups the second traffic flow with the first traffic flow for an MU-MIMO transmission based on the data carried in the first and second packets of the first traffic flow being greater than the first threshold and the data carried in the packets of the second traffic flow being greater than a second threshold, and transmits the first and second packets traffic flows as an MU-MIMO communication.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 18, 2022Publication date: October 19, 2023Inventors: Nicholas KUCHAREWSKI, Ahmed Ragab ELSHERIF, Simon Jan BRAND, Srinivas KATAR, Sandip HOMCHAUDHURI

Publication number: 20230337217Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for provisioning resources for wireless communications. Some implementations more specifically relate to provisioning such resources based on a mapping of wireless communication devices to a number of time sectors that occur periodically and do not overlap other time sectors. In some aspects, each wireless stations (STAs) in a basic service set (BSS) may be mapped to a respective time sector based on attributes associated with the BSS so that communications between a STA and its associated access point (AP) can only occur within the respective time sector(s) to which the STA is mapped. In some other aspects, each AP in a multi-AP environment may be mapped to a respective time sector based on attributes associated with the multi-AP environment so that communications between an AP and its associated STAs can only occur within the respective time sector(s) to which the AP is mapped.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 18, 2022Publication date: October 19, 2023Inventors: Nicholas KUCHAREWSKI, Ahmed Ragab Elsherif, Simon Jan Brand, Srinivas Katar, Xiaolong Huang, Sandip Homchaudhuri, Harinder Singh
