  • Publication number: 20220303356
    Abstract: Simultaneous dual band operation (2.4 and 5 GHz) is common in APs on the market today, and tri-band devices are expected in the market soon. Link aggregation can also be applicable to multiple air interfaces in the same band (for instance 2 independent IEEE 802.1 lac/ax air interfaces at 5 GHz on 2 different 80 MHz channels). One exemplary aspect provides technology that enables significantly higher throughput and/or higher reliability for two stations (STAs) or a STA and the access point (AP) when the devices support simultaneous multi-band operation.

  • Publication number: 20220201070
    Abstract: In described examples, ownership of a network protocol-based session is distributed across multiple entities. A session is established between a remote entity and a first processing node on a local device, such that the first processing node is the session owner of the session on the local device. During the session, ownership of the session is transferred from the first processing node to a second processing node on the local device, such that the second processing node becomes the session owner of the session on the local device. The session is then operated between the remote entity and the second processing node as the session owner.

  • Publication number: 20210337475
    Abstract: An apparatus for implementing power control for a radio device that has multiple radio transceivers operating in different bands, including sub-bands of a single frequency band. The device implements a power control protocol for communications between the device and a similar peer device. The device sets-up the power control protocol by generating a request to use one of the multiple bands to signal power control operations, and to use another one of the multiple bands to transfer data between the device and the peer device. The device sends the request to the peer device and receives a response. Based on the response, the device identifies a control channel band and a data channel band from among the multiple bands.
