MULTI-LINK OPERATION TRANSMIT ARCHITECTURE FOR DYNAMIC MAPPING OF TRANSMIT QUEUES TO LINKS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17956950 titled 'MULTI-LINK OPERATION TRANSMIT ARCHITECTURE FOR DYNAMIC MAPPING OF TRANSMIT QUEUES TO LINKS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a multi-link device apparatus with two transmission queues and first and second medium access control (MAC) circuitry. The MAC circuitry transmits data from the transmission queues over respective links when a trigger indicates a transmission opportunity is available.

  • The multi-link device (MLD) apparatus includes at least two transmission queues.
  • The apparatus has first and second medium access control (MAC) circuitry.
  • Data from the transmission queues is transmitted over respective links by the MAC circuitry.
  • Transmission occurs in response to a trigger indicating a transmission opportunity (TXOP) on the corresponding link.

Potential Applications

The technology could be applied in:

  • Wireless communication systems
  • Networking equipment
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices

Problems Solved

This technology helps in:

  • Efficient data transmission over multiple links
  • Managing transmission opportunities effectively

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved data transmission performance
  • Enhanced network efficiency
  • Optimal utilization of transmission opportunities

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications of this technology could be in:

  • Telecommunications industry
  • Data centers
  • Smart home devices

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be:

  • Multi-link communication systems in networking equipment

Unanswered Questions

How does the MLD apparatus handle data collisions?

The abstract does not mention how the device manages data collisions between the transmission queues.

What is the power consumption of the MLD apparatus?

The abstract does not provide information on the power consumption of the multi-link device apparatus.


Original Abstract Submitted

A multi-link device (MLD) apparatus, including at least two transmission queues and first medium access control (MAC) circuitry and second MAC circuitry. The first MAC circuitry and the second MAC circuitry can transmit data of the at least two transmission queues over respective links responsive to receiving a trigger indicating that a transmission opportunity (TXOP) is available on the link corresponding to the respective first MAC circuitry and second MAC circuitry.
