SECURE LINK RECOMMENDATION WITH ENHANCED INTEGRITY IN MULTIPLE BASIC SERVICE SET IDENTIFICATION NETWORKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18398442 titled 'SECURE LINK RECOMMENDATION WITH ENHANCED INTEGRITY IN MULTIPLE BASIC SERVICE SET IDENTIFICATION NETWORKS
Simplified Explanation
The apparatus of an Access Point Multi-Link Device (AP MLD) in a wireless network includes memory and processing circuitry to encode beacon frames for transmission to non-AP MLDs on behalf of the TxBSSID and NonTxBSSIDs within the MBSSID set. A link recommendation frame is also encoded for transmission to non-AP MLDs, providing link recommendations for the non-AP MLDs associated with any APs in the MBSSID set. The group management cipher suite of the TxBSSID is used to protect the link recommendation frame during transmission.
- The apparatus is configured as a Transmitted Basic Service Set Identifier (TxBSSID) in a wireless network with a multiple BSSID (MBSSID) set.
- It encodes beacon frames for transmission to non-AP MLDs, as well as link recommendation frames for non-AP MLDs associated with APs in the MBSSID set.
- The group management cipher suite of the TxBSSID is used to protect the link recommendation frame during transmission.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in large-scale wireless networks where multiple access points are used to provide coverage over a wide area. It can help optimize network performance and enhance communication between different access points.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient transmission of beacon frames and link recommendations in a wireless network with multiple access points. 2. Enhanced network management and coordination between access points in a complex wireless environment.
Benefits
1. Improved network performance and reliability. 2. Enhanced communication and coordination between access points. 3. Increased efficiency in managing large-scale wireless networks.
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing network performance in large office buildings, shopping malls, airports, or other public spaces with high-density wireless usage.
Possible Prior Art
Prior art in the field of wireless network management and optimization may include technologies related to beacon frame transmission, link recommendation protocols, and group management cipher suites.
Unanswered Questions
How does this technology impact the overall network efficiency and performance in a wireless environment?
This technology can potentially improve network efficiency by optimizing communication between access points and enhancing network management capabilities.
What are the specific security measures implemented to protect the transmission of link recommendation frames in this technology?
The group management cipher suite of the TxBSSID is used to protect the link recommendation frames during transmission, ensuring the security of the communication between access points and non-AP MLDs.
Original Abstract Submitted
An apparatus of an access point multi-link device (AP MLD) is configured as a Transmitted Basic Service Set Identifier (TxBSSID) in a wireless network including a multiple BSSID (MBSSID) set. The apparatus includes memory and processing circuitry coupled to the memory and configured to encode beacon frames for transmission to non-AP MLDs in the wireless network. The transmission is on behalf of the TxBSSID and Non-Transmitted BSSIDs (NonTxBSSIDs) within the MBSSID set. A link recommendation frame is encoded for transmission to the non-AP MLDs. The link recommendation frame includes link recommendations for the non-AP MLDs associated with any APs in the MBSSID set. A group management cipher suite of the TxBSSID is used to protect the link recommendation frame encoded for the transmission.
