APPARATUSES AND METHODS FOR FACILITATING AN APPLICATION AND SERVICE AWARE FREQUENCY BAND SELECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17958561 titled 'APPARATUSES AND METHODS FOR FACILITATING AN APPLICATION AND SERVICE AWARE FREQUENCY BAND SELECTION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application abstract describes a method where a client device switches from one Wi-Fi frequency band to another after the conclusion of a communication session.
- The innovation involves determining the end of a communication session on a first Wi-Fi frequency band and then causing the client device to switch to a different Wi-Fi frequency band for a new session.
- This technology aims to optimize Wi-Fi usage and performance by dynamically switching frequency bands based on session activity.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in:
- Smart home devices
- Mobile devices
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
Problems Solved
- Overcrowding on a single Wi-Fi frequency band
- Interference from neighboring networks
Benefits
- Improved Wi-Fi performance
- Enhanced user experience
- Efficient use of Wi-Fi spectrum
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing Wi-Fi frequency band usage for:
- Wi-Fi routers
- Networking equipment manufacturers
- IoT device manufacturers
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the concept of dynamic frequency selection in wireless communication systems.
Unanswered Questions
How does the technology determine the optimal frequency band for the new communication session?
The abstract does not specify the criteria or algorithm used for selecting the second Wi-Fi frequency band.
Are there any limitations to the frequency band switching process?
The abstract does not mention any potential drawbacks or limitations of the technology, such as compatibility issues with certain devices or networks.
Original Abstract Submitted
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, determining that a first communication session involving a client device and utilizing a first Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) frequency band has concluded, and based on the determining, causing a second communication session involving the client device to utilize a second Wi-Fi frequency band that is different from the first Wi-Fi frequency band. Other embodiments are disclosed.
