  • Publication number: 20240276393
    Abstract: The interference control system provides a control device disposed in a public network with a resource application based on a message issued regarding use of a wireless resource by an interfering device disposed in a carrier network. A response based on a message issued by the control device in response to the resource application is provided to the interfering device that has issued the resource application. A repeater estimates, on the basis of interfered-with device information, an increase amount in the total amount of interference caused in each of used frequency channels of the interfered-with device in a case where the interfering device performs transmission in each of frequency channels with a prescribed transmission power. An estimation result of the increase amount is reflected in at least one of the resource application from the interfering device and the response to the interfering device.

  • Publication number: 20240275565
    Abstract: In a wireless communication system in which an AP 1 and a plurality of STAs 2 perform wireless communication, the AP 1 notifies each of the STAs 2 of a schedule of channel transition including a transition destination channel and a timing of channel transition different for each of the STAs 2 (or each group thereof), and then executes a channel switching process, and when the STA 2 receives the schedule of channel transition, the STA 2 stops transmission, and thereafter executes a connection process with the AP 1 at the timing according to the schedule. It is possible to shorten the time until the communication with the AP is resumed by avoiding collision of wireless frames between the terminals (STAs) when the channel is changed.
