Abstract: A wireless LAN device and a wireless LAN system including three or more wireless LAN devices are provided. A wireless LAN device includes a wireless communication section for performing wireless communication so as to relay a packet in a wireless network. The wireless communication section includes a priority transmitting section for transmitting a priority level of the wireless LAN device to one or more other wireless LAN devices; a priority receiving section for receiving a priority level of the one or more other wireless LAN devices from the one or more other wireless LAN devices, and storing the received priority level in a priority storing section; and a relaying section for relaying the packet to the one or more other wireless LAN devices that has the highest priority level among the priority levels stored in the priority storing section.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of transmitting ACK/NACK (acknowledgement/negative ACK) information in downlink and an apparatus and method of receiving the ACK/NACK information are disclosed. The present invention configures ACK/NACK information on multiple UL codeword transmission using a PHICH and at least one NDI, whereby the ACK/NACK information on the multiple UL codeword transmission is transmitted to a user equipment without additional PHICH resource allocation. The present invention extends the conventional HI codeword and/or arranged position on a signal constellation, thereby transmitting ACK/NACK information on multiple UL codeword transmission to a user equipment without additional PHICH resource allocation.

Abstract: A full duplex radio bridge using two transceivers coupled to a first packet network, one for transmitting data toward another radio bridge coupled to a second packet network, and the other for receiving data transmitted from the first packet network toward said second packet network by a transceiver of the other radio bridge. Each radio bridge is coupled to its packet network through one network port whose transmit data path is coupled to one of the transceivers, and whose receive data path is coupled to receive data from the other transceiver. An inner loop and outer loop is used. Management packets are routed to the various transceivers using the inner loop and outer loop by routing and filtering functions. Payload packets are transmitted from one packet network to the other using only the outer loop.

Abstract: There are disclosed a method of communicating for a smart utility network using a TV white space and an apparatus for the same. The method of communicating for a smart utility network using a TV white space according to the present invention includes: generating a time domain sequence repeated every predetermined number of samples; generating an OFDM symbol having a cyclic prefix length corresponding to an FFT size divided by a natural number of 2 or more and including samples of a number corresponding to the sum of the FFT size and the cyclic prefix length; and generating an SUN packet to be transmitted through a TV channel band selected in the TV white space by using the time domain sequence and the OFDM symbol. Accordingly, it is possible to satisfy all requirements required by the IEEE 802.15.4g SUN standardization group.
