  • Patent number: 11057932
    Abstract: A sender of the RTS frame is decoded based on the symbol error sequence and a station database within the access point, even if there is a CRC (cyclical redundancy checking) failure. The access point seizes the transmit opportunity during RTS reception failure, as collision results in higher back off window before stations can transmit. To minimize the impact of collision on voice clients, some embodiments prioritize transmission of voice packets within the new transmit opportunity.
