  • Method of sending a multipoint stream in a local area network and connection device implementing the method
    Patent number: 7596138
    Abstract: Within the framework of a wireless local area network, the sending of the multipoint transmission streams is not made reliable by an acknowledgment of receipt mechanism. This reliability may be improved by the sending in point-to-point mode of the packets belonging to a multipoint transmission stream. In the case of a digital service consisting of several streams of different priorities, it is possible to send only some of these streams in point-to-point mode while the other streams remain in multipoint. A gateway between the local area network and the exterior may be tasked with this selective transformation of the mode of transmission of the streams received.
