Wi-Fi Communication Method and Electronic Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17965901 titled 'Wi-Fi Communication Method and Electronic Device

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a Wi-Fi communication method and an electronic device that allows for efficient communication between devices. Here are the key points:

  • The method involves connecting an Access Point (AP) device to a first device using a specific channel.
  • The AP device supports full-duplex communication, meaning it can send and receive data simultaneously.
  • When the target channel is not in use, the AP device sends a control message to the first device. This control message includes information about the time period during which the AP device will occupy the target channel.
  • Based on the time period provided in the control message, the first device determines the optimal time to send a first data frame.
  • The first device then sends the first data frame to the AP device at the determined sending time using the target channel.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This technology can be used in various communication devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and IoT devices.
  • It can improve the efficiency and reliability of Wi-Fi communication in homes, offices, public spaces, and other areas with multiple connected devices.
  • This method can also be applied in industrial settings where reliable and fast communication between devices is crucial.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • The method solves the problem of channel congestion in Wi-Fi networks by allowing devices to efficiently utilize the available channels.
  • It addresses the issue of interference between devices by providing a mechanism for devices to coordinate their communication.
  • This technology also improves the overall performance and throughput of Wi-Fi networks by optimizing the timing of data transmission.

Benefits of this technology:

  • The method allows for more efficient use of Wi-Fi channels, resulting in improved network performance and reduced latency.
  • It enables devices to communicate reliably and effectively, even in environments with high levels of interference.
  • This technology can enhance the user experience by providing faster and more stable Wi-Fi connections for various applications and devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

This application relates to the field of communications technologies, and discloses a Wi-Fi communication method and an electronic device. The method includes the following steps: An AP device is connected to a first device by using a target channel. The AP device supports full-duplex communication. On this basis, when the target channel is idle, the AP device sends a control message to the first device by using the target channel, where the control message includes a time period in which the AP device occupies the target channel. The first device determines, based on the time period, a time for sending a first data frame, where the sending time is in the time period. Then the first device sends the first data frame to the AP device at the sending time by using the target channel.
