Patent number: 8295829Abstract: A Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is operated in conjunction with a wired Local Area Network (wired LAN) to service a premises, e.g., a campus setting. The wired LAN services the wired communication needs of the premises and serves as the wired backbone of the WLAN. A plurality of Wireless Access Points (WAPs) of the WLAN couple to the wired backbone and are serviced by the LAN. With this shared structure, wired network components, e.g., multi-layer switches, manage the operation of WLAN components, i.e., WAPs. Such management includes ensuring that the WAPs provide sufficient bandwidth to support wireless packetized voice communications. Additional management operations include WAP access, wireless terminal registration, and channel resource allocation, among others.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2011Date of Patent: October 23, 2012Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Jeffrey L.

Patent number: 7453839Abstract: A wired Local Area Network (wired LAN) and a plurality of Wireless Access Points (WAPs) coupled to a wired network infrastructure of the wired LAN service wireless packetized communications for a plurality of Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) clients. A multi-layer switch of the wired LAN monitors packetized communications serviced by a WAP of the plurality of WAPs. Based upon the monitoring, the multi-layer switch determines that a WLAN client serviced by the WAP exceeds a usage threshold. Based upon the determination the wireless capacity provided to the wireless terminal by the WAP is reduced. Reducing the wireless capacity provided to the WLAN client by the WAP includes directing the WAP to reduce a Class of Service (CoS) provided to the WLAN client.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2002Date of Patent: November 18, 2008Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Jeffrey L.

Patent number: 7394796Abstract: A Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) infrastructure includes a wired backbone network, an air controller, and a plurality of wireless access points (WAPs). Each WAP includes a processor, a wired backbone interface, a first radio, a directional antenna, a second radio, and an antenna. The first radio and directional antenna service wireless terminals. The second radio and the antenna collect non-participatory WAP data. The first radio and directional antenna optionally collect participatory WAP data. Based upon the non-participatory WAP data (and optionally the participatory WAP data), the processor creates WAP operational reports and provides the WAPs operational reports to the air controller. The air controller creates directions based thereon and directs one or more of the WAPs to alter the gain pattern(s) of the directional antenna(s), alter the transmit power(s) of the first radio(s), and/or to alter the channel usage of the first radio(s).Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2003Date of Patent: July 1, 2008Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Jeffrey L.
