  • Multi-threshold listening method for dynamic sensitivity control enabled wireless MAC
    Patent number: 10405324
    Abstract: A device and method for wirelessly communicating over a transmission channel with one or more wireless devices. The device comprises a wireless network interface and a controller. The controller is configured to receive a wireless signal via the wireless network interface, if strength of the received signal is greater than a first threshold, determine that the channel is busy, and, if the strength of the received signal is not greater than the first threshold, but is greater than a second threshold that is lower than the first threshold, determine whether the received signal is intended for the device and if so, determine that the channel is busy.

  • APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SIMULTANEOUS TRANSMIT AND RECEIVE NETWORK MODE
    Publication number: 20180020476
    Abstract: A device and method of scheduling data transmission in a communication system comprising receiving at a first network node a request for data transmission to the first network node and scheduling a data transmission originating at first network node so that the end of the data transmission substantially coincides with or is earlier than the expected end of the data transmission to first network node. The first network node is an access point or a station.
