Abstract: A method of managing a wireless communication between a plurality of accessory devices and a host device includes, at the host device, establishing a data connection with a plurality of accessory devices, obtaining a radio ID for each accessory device of the plurality of accessory devices, grouping the plurality of accessory devices into at least one OFDMA device and at least one non-OFDMA device based at least partially on the radio IDs, sending a trigger signal to the at least one OFDMA device; and after receiving a first response signal from the at least one OFDMA device in response to the trigger signal, receiving a second response signal from the at least one non-OFDMA device.

Abstract: A method of managing wireless communication between electronic devices includes, at a first electronic device, transmitting a first downlink transmission from the first electronic device to a second electronic device and receiving a first response from the second electronic device at the first electronic device, wherein the first response includes a downlink channel quality information (CQI). The method further includes determining a per-subcarrier CQI based at least partially on the downlink CQI and determining an output modulation and coding scheme (MCS) based at least partially on the per-subcarrier CQI. After determining the output MCS, the method includes selecting a selected MCS based at least partially on the output MCS and setting an MCS of the first electronic device to the selected MCS.

Abstract: A computing device (such as a computer gaming console) uses only a single radio to concurrently communicate with a wireless network access point and wireless client devices such as game controllers or peripherals. To establish and maintain both a high-throughput link with the access point, and a low-latency link with the client device(s), the single Wi-Fi radio of the computing device is configured to periodically switch between a channel used for the high-throughput link and a different channel that is used for the low-latency link—thus implementing a combination of frequency division multiplexing (FDM) and time division multiplexing (TDM). The console may use aspects of the Wi-Fi protocol standard to ensure that periodically switching its single radio between the two channels is accomplished while maintaining reliable communication on both channels.

Abstract: A first device includes a processor, a wireless communication device in data communication with the processor, and a hardware storage device in data communication with the processor. The hardware storage device includes instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, causes the host device to compare a Quality of Server Subtype (QoS-Subtype) value to a matching rule of a policy table stored on the hardware storage device, determine a transmission policy based at least partially on the QoS-Subtype value, wherein the transmission policy includes a transmission rate with a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) index based at least partially on the QoS-Subtype, and transmit a transmission to a second device according to the transmission policy.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a processor, a wireless communication device, and a hardware storage device. The hardware storage device has instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the electronic device to obtain a plurality of data channel personalities. Each of the data channel personalities includes a unique radio communication and network protocol for the wireless communication device. The instructions further cause the electronic device to select a data channel personality from the plurality of data channel personalities and transmit data to a host device using the wireless communication device and the radio communication and network protocol according to the selected data channel personality.

Abstract: A host device includes a processor, a wireless communication device in data communication with the processor, and a hardware storage device in data communication with the processor. The hardware storage device has instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the host device to establish a wireless data channel with an accessory device and assign the wireless data channel to a resource unit with a bandwidth less than 20 MHz. The instructions further cause the host device to send a trigger signal to the accessory device and receive state data from the accessory device in response to the trigger signal.

Abstract: A method of operating a transceiver may comprise operating in an adaptive mode in which transmissions from the transceiver are halted after detection of interference, performing a clear channel assessment (CCA), as a result of the CCA, detecting energy from an interferer above a predetermined threshold, and switching operation to a non-adaptive mode in which the transceiver is configured to alternate transmission periods and idle periods according to a duty cycle. Then, the method may comprise performing an energy detect, as a result of the energy detect, subsequently detecting the energy from the interferer below the predetermined threshold, and switching operation to the adaptive mode.
