RESOURCE ALLOCATION FOR LOW-LATENCY TRANSMISSION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17918466 titled 'RESOURCE ALLOCATION FOR LOW-LATENCY TRANSMISSION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of this patent application describes a system in a wireless local area network (WLAN) where an access point (AP) can gather information from another network about a specific time resource allocated for low-latency traffic. The AP then transmits this information to its associated STA (station) for use in allocating time resources for low-latency traffic within its own network.

  • The patent application describes a system for managing low-latency traffic in a WLAN.
  • An access point (AP) can obtain information about a specific time resource allocated for low-latency traffic from another network.
  • This information is then transmitted to the AP's associated STA for use in allocating time resources for low-latency traffic within its own network.
  • The low-latency traffic refers to a new type of traffic with a delay set below a preconfigured threshold.
  • The AP and STA work together to ensure efficient allocation of time resources for low-latency traffic within the WLAN system.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be applied in various WLAN systems, such as home networks, office networks, or public Wi-Fi networks.
  • It can be particularly useful in environments where low-latency traffic is critical, such as real-time communication applications or time-sensitive data transfers.

Problems Solved

  • The technology addresses the challenge of efficiently managing low-latency traffic in WLAN systems.
  • By acquiring information about time resources allocated for low-latency traffic from other networks, the system can optimize the allocation of time resources within its own network.
  • This helps to ensure that low-latency traffic receives the necessary resources and reduces delays or latency issues.

Benefits

  • The system allows for improved management of low-latency traffic in WLAN systems, leading to better performance and user experience.
  • By leveraging information from overlapping networks, the system can make more informed decisions about time resource allocation.
  • This technology enables the efficient use of time resources for low-latency traffic, reducing delays and improving overall network performance.


Original Abstract Submitted

In a wireless local area network (WLAN) system, an access point (AP) may acquire, from an overlapping Basic Service Set (BSS), information related to a first allocation slot. The first allocation slot may be a time resource allocated for low-latency traffic of the OBSS, and the low-latency traffic may be a new type of traffic whose delay is set below a preconfigured threshold. The AP may transmit, to its associated STA, information related to a second allocation slot. The second allocation slot may be a time resource allocated for low-latency traffic of a BSS to which the AP belongs.
