  • Patent number: 11903027
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to several techniques for reducing the occurrence of data collisions, which can occur when multiple devices simultaneously transmit data in the same (frequency) channel. For example, a turnaround time in which a device switches from a receive mode of operation to a transmit mode of operation may be reduced based on the device and another device indicating that they are capable of operating with a reduced turnaround. As another example, devices may use learning-based turnaround estimation to determine a turnaround time supported by other devices and utilize the determined turnaround time, for instance, instead of a longer turnaround time. As yet another example, multiple clear channel assessments may be performed before transmitting data. For instance, a first clear channel assessment may be performed during a backoff period, and a second clear channel assessment may be performed afterwards before data is transmitted.

  • Patent number: 7447180
    Abstract: The present invention is a wireless media access method on a wireless network synchronized by a synchronizing signal broadcasted from a coordinator. In the method, priority is assigned to a plurality of devices interconnected over the wireless network for securing wireless resources in accordance with application characteristics of a packet to be transmitted, and if the devices request communication, dividing at least one slot within a superframe into a plurality of minislots. Minislots are then allocated to the devices, respectively, according to the priority, and information about the allocated minislots is inserted into the synchronizing signal. The information is then broadcast, thereby allowing each of the devices with the allocated minislots to exclusively use the allocated minislot for data communication.

  • Patent number: 7391789
    Abstract: An ad-hoc network wireless communication system transmits data packets from one hop to another hop in a relay manner, and includes a transmitting node for transmitting a RTS message in order to transmit the data packets, and a receiving node, existing in a next hop of the transmitting node, for transmitting a CTS message in response to the RTS message transmitted from the transmitting node. The receiving node transmits the CTS message to another receiving node successively connected to the receiving node in response to the transmitted CTS message, and the transmitting node transmits the data packets to the receiving node in the case that the CTS message transmitted by the receiving node of the next hop is received over a predetermined number of times. The ad-hoc network wireless communication system can maximize the communication efficiency in a multi-hop network with its complexity minimized by extending a MAC protocol based on a IEEE 802.11 DCF to a reservation-based MAC in the multi-hop network.

  • Publication number: 20050152381
    Abstract: In a communication system having at least two piconets, each having at least one device communicating using a single radio resource and a piconet coordinator controlling the device, a connecting method for communications amongst the device and the piconet coordinators of the other piconets. A router device, which is located in an overlapping area of at least two piconets and is connected with the piconet coordinators, requests connection to the piconet coordinator connected with the adjacent piconet coordinators of the overlapping piconets. Upon receiving the message of the connection permit from a piconet coordinator, the router device requests connection to the adjacent piconet coordinator. Upon receiving the message of the connection permit, the device connects with the adjacent piconet coordinator.
