Patent number: 11509419Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for acknowledgement and retransmission, and more specifically, to methods, devices and systems that enable a secondary wireless channel to provide acknowledgements of data transmitted on a primary wireless channel concurrently with the reception of additional data on the primary wireless channel. In some implementations, a transmitting device may transmit wireless packets including multiple codewords to a receiving device via a first wireless channel. The receiving device may attempt to decode the received codewords based on primary information in the codewords. The receiving device may then transmit to the transmitting device, via a second wireless channel, a codeword acknowledgement that identifies codewords that the receiving device did not successfully decode. The transmitting device may then transmit parity information to the receiving device via the first wireless channel that aids the receiving device in decoding the identified codewords.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2020Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: QUALCOMM INCORPORATEDInventors: James Simon Cho, Youhan Kim, Tao-Fei Samuel Ng, Vincent Knowles Jones, IV

Patent number: 11121822Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for implementing a hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) protocol in a wireless local area network (WLAN). A first WLAN device may generate a first HARQ packet for transmission to a second WLAN device. The first WLAN device may determine a first basic service set (BSS) indicator and a second BSS indicator for a BSS associated with the first WLAN device and the second WLAN device. The first BSS indicator and the second BSS indicator may be indicative of a BSS identifier (BSSID) of the BSS. The first WLAN device may output the first HARQ packet for transmission to the second WLAN device. The first HARQ packet may include the first BSS indicator and the second BSS indicator in one or more fields of a physical layer (PHY) header of the first HARQ packet.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2019Date of Patent: September 14, 2021Assignee: QUALCOMM INCORPORATEDInventors: James Simon Cho, Tao-Fei Samuel Ng, Youhan Kim, Bin Tian, Jialing Li Chen, Stephen Jay Shellhammer, Vincent Knowles Jones, IV
