  • Data unit aggregation in a wireless network with multiple channel segments
    Patent number: 11818799
    Abstract: A first communication device selects respective sets of medium access control (MAC) layer data units for transmission via respective channel segments of a communication channel, where the first channel segment and the second channel segment are non-overlapping frequency segments of the communication channel. The first communication device generates respective aggregate MAC layer data units to include the respective sets of MAC layer data units, generates respective physical (PHY) layer data units to include the respective aggregate MAC layer data units, and transmits the respective PHY layer data units in the respective channel segments to one or more second communication devices, where transmissions of the respective aggregate MAC layer data units in the respective channel segment overlap in time.

  • Fibre channel implementation using network processors
    Patent number: 7295561
    Abstract: Network processors controlled by software are used to implement the FC-1 and FC-2 layer functions. Each Network Processor comprises a fabric processor, an executive processor, channel processors and associated serial data processors. Special ASICs are not required since all of the Fiber Channel layers may be implementation with the network processors under software control.
