    Abstract: Systems and methods for service period recovery in a wireless communications system are provided. An initial service period for transmitting data is assigned to a first remote station. Data period schedule information, including the assignment of the initial service period, is transmitted from a central station. In response to determining that the first remote station is not transmitting during the initial service period, a modified service period is assigned to the first remote station. A service period change announcement, including the assignment of the modified service period, is transmitted from the central station. In response to determining that the first remote station is not transmitting during the modified service period, the initial service period is truncated and a service period truncation is transmitted from the central station.

  • Patent number: 8942311
    Abstract: A method for generating signals to be transmitted within a basic service set (BSS) channel, where a set of component channels is collectively coextensive with the BSS channel, includes determining that a first duplicate, in frequency, of a low bandwidth mode data unit will be located at an edge of the BSS channel. Each duplicate includes orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) tones and has a bandwidth less than the narrowest channel of the component channels. The OFDM tones in each duplicate include one or more data tones, one or more pilot tones, and one or more guard tones. The method also includes generating a transmission signal comprising the duplicates, at least in part by scaling down at least one data tone, and/or zeroing out at least one data tone, of the first duplicate in response to determining that the first duplicate will be located at an edge of the BSS channel.

  • Publication number: 20150006633
    Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method are provided for operating a peer-to-peer communication environment. The environment includes one or more clusters of peer devices, wherein devices in a single cluster are organized into a logical hierarchy under an anchor master (at the root of the hierarchy) and any number of synchronization masters; other devices are non-master devices. Synchronization parameters established by the anchor master and disseminated throughout the hierarchy enable the clusters' devices to rendezvous, discover peers and services, and communicate among themselves. The anchor master may adjust the synchronization parameters to avoid conflict with another hierarchy. Each device issues beacons (e.g., heartbeats, discovery beacons) that identify the number of devices synchronized with the reporting device, which allows the anchor master to calculate the total number of cluster members. Devices may also report details of a neighboring cluster (e.g.

  • Patent number: 8923118
    Abstract: In a communication system that utilizes at least a primary channel, a secondary channel, and a tertiary channel, a primary channel signal level in the primary channel is measured, and a secondary channel signal level in the secondary channel is measured. A first tertiary channel signal level in a first bandwidth portion of the tertiary channel is measured, and a second tertiary channel signal level in a second bandwidth portion of the tertiary channel is measured. It is determined whether the primary channel is idle based on the primary channel signal level, and it is determined whether the secondary channel is idle based on the secondary channel signal level. It is determined whether the tertiary channel is idle based on the first tertiary channel signal level and the second tertiary channel signal level. It is determined whether a valid signal is received via a first composite channel including the primary channel, the secondary channel, and the tertiary channel.

  • Publication number: 20140374485
    Abstract: A system and method are presented for improving the performance of full range code scanners. A distance detection module determines the distance of the code symbol from the code symbol reader. In response to the detected distance, the sweep angle of the scanning element is changed to ensure that the code symbol is within the code symbol reader's field of view. The sweep angle is larger when the code symbol is in the near range, and smaller when the code symbol is in the far range.
