  • Distributed bi-directional flow control in wireless mesh networks
    Patent number: 9503926
    Abstract: A distributed, bi-directional congestion control and starvation avoidance system for wireless mesh networks. In particular implementations, the nodes of the wireless mesh network monitor their respective local buffers for traffic load, and signal upstream and downstream nodes in response to detected congestion or excess capacity to dynamically allocate transmit capacity between neighboring nodes. Particular implementations are capable of mitigating congestion and preventing starvation in a fully distributed, low-overhead, scalable and efficient manner.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 28, 2015
    Date of Patent: November 22, 2016
    Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.
    Inventors: Johannes Petrus Kruys, Lu Qian, Predrag Tosic

  • Pinning and cascading avoidance in dynamic channel assignment for wireless LANS
    Patent number: 8289901
    Abstract: Techniques are provided to determine channel assignments for wireless access point (AP) devices in a wireless local area network (WLAN). From each of a plurality of AP devices operating at least one of a plurality of channels in the WLAN, wireless activity data is received that represents activity in each channel associated with signals of devices operating in the WLAN and associated with signals and energy from devices that are not operating in the WLAN as detected by the AP devices by receiving radio frequency energy in each of the plurality of channels.
