Abstract: The invention refers to wireless local area networks (WLAN) consisting of a multitude of transceivers capable of establishing communication with one another (i.e. operating in a peer-to-peer mode) under the control of network coordinator (the so-called “ad hoc” networks). Implies the assignment of the role of the temporary coordinator to a transceiver from among the plurality of transceivers, switching-over other transceivers into the mode of a network client, orientation of antenna beam of a transceiver (switched-over into the client mode) equipped with a direction-agile antenna in the direction of the temporary coordinator of the network and transmission of information to an addressee by a client-transceiver of this network that has got the permission to transmit from the temporary coordinator.

Abstract: A communication network includes a plurality of transceivers in spaced-apart locations A transmission from one of the transceivers to a selected receiver destination can be optimized by sending the transmission along optimum quality path segments from transceiver to transceiver. The optimum path segments are determined conveniently by comparing consecutive entries in a link quality table. Each transceiver may include a direction-agile antenna, which is oriented in the direction to optimize transmission and reception of each received data packet.

Abstract: Method for data transmission in a wireless local area network refers to wireless local area networks (WLAN) consisting of a multitude of transceivers capable of establishing communication with one another (i.e. operating in a peer-to-peer mode). Implies the determination of the quality of communication between all transceivers and storage of communication quality data by each of the transceivers. Based on stored data on communication quality, a transceiver operating in the transmission mode transmits information to an addressee by a transmission route that provides for the quality of communication, which is equal to or better than a specified threshold value of communication quality. Stored data are updated periodically. The method improves the quality and reliability of communication for WLAN users (including mobile users) thus increasing the data transmission rate.
