  • Patent number: 11956812
    Abstract: A method for processing a network allocation vector (NAV) includes: terminating the receiving of a first radio frame when it is determined that a target receiving station of the first radio frame being received is not a first station; and updating an NAV of the first station or maintaining the NAV of the first station unchanged according to a remaining duration of the first radio frame and a first transmission opportunity duration carried in the first radio frame, where the remaining duration of the first radio frame is the transmission time used for transmitting the remaining part of the first radio frame after the receiving of the first radio frame is terminated. The technical solution solves the problem in the related art of collisions with hidden stations caused by an inaccurate NAV update in the existing art, thereby ensuring the accuracy of an NAV update and the fairness of transmission and channel contention, and reducing collisions among hidden stations.

  • Patent number: 11882554
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first user equipment (UE) may determine that the first UE is scheduled to transmit in a first slot and a second slot after the first slot. The first UE may then transmit, to a second UE, a first set of data in the first slot based on determining that the first UE is scheduled to transmit in the first slot and the second slot. In some examples, the first UE may determine whether a power estimation capability of the second UE satisfies a threshold. In some cases, the power estimation capability may be based on a correspondence between transmissions in the first slot and expected transmissions in the second slot. Based on the power estimation capability of the second UE, the first UE transmits data in a symbol reserved for automatic gain control at the second slot.

  • Patent number: 11770743
    Abstract: Communication by messages such as provided by the mobile telephony standard, Rich Communication Services (RCS), is described. A method for exchanging messages implemented by a user terminal capable of transmitting a message via one of a first network and a second network is described, the method including, when the terminal of the user is in a second transmission mode for a contact terminal, triggering a failover of the user terminal in a first transmission mode for the contact terminal, as soon as a notification is received at the terminal of the user of connecting to the first network of the contact terminal coming from a messaging server on the first network. Thus, returning to using the first network by the user terminal only depends on one single message: the connection notification, and the exchanges for determining the capacities of the terminal of the contact are reduced, since this notification is only sent when the connection of the contact terminal to the first network is effective.
