ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF FOR SETTING TARGET WAKE TIME PARAMETERS BASED ON RESPONSE SIGNAL RECEIVED FROM EXTERNAL ELECTRONIC DEVICE OF DIFFERENT BASIC SERVICE SET - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17968328 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF FOR SETTING TARGET WAKE TIME PARAMETERS BASED ON RESPONSE SIGNAL RECEIVED FROM EXTERNAL ELECTRONIC DEVICE OF DIFFERENT BASIC SERVICE SET

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device and its method of operation. Here are the key points:

  • The electronic device has a communication circuit for transmitting and receiving data through short-range wireless communication.
  • It also has a processor connected to the communication circuit.
  • The processor is capable of receiving target wake time (TWT) parameters from a first external electronic device connected to the device.
  • It can send a request signal to obtain TWT parameters of a second external electronic device belonging to a different basic service set (BSS).
  • The processor determines whether to configure the TWT parameters of the first external device based on the response signal received.
  • If a response signal is received, the TWT parameters of the first external device are configured based on the TWT parameters of the second external device.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This technology can be used in various electronic devices that rely on short-range wireless communication, such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and IoT devices.
  • It can improve the efficiency and performance of wireless communication between devices by optimizing the wake time parameters.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • This technology solves the problem of inefficient wake time management in short-range wireless communication.
  • It allows devices to synchronize their wake times based on the parameters of other devices in different BSS, leading to improved overall performance.

Benefits of this technology:

  • By configuring the TWT parameters based on the parameters of other devices, it can reduce power consumption and extend battery life.
  • It can enhance the reliability and stability of wireless communication by optimizing the wake time scheduling.
  • This technology can improve the overall user experience by enabling faster and more efficient data transmission between devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

In an electronic device and/or an operation method thereof according to various example embodiments, the electronic device may include: a communication circuit configured to transmit and/or receive data to and/or from a first external electronic device connected through short-range wireless communication; and a processor operably connected to the communication circuit, wherein the processor may be configured to: receive, from the first external electronic device connected to the electronic device, target wake time (TWT) parameters of the first external electronic device; transmit a request signal for information related to TWT parameters of a second external electronic device belonging to a basic service set (BSS) different from a BSS including the electronic device and the first external electronic device; determine whether to configure TWT parameters of the first external electronic device based on whether a response signal corresponding to the request signal is received; and configure the TWT parameters of the first external electronic device based on TWT parameters of the second external electronic device included in the response signal. Various other embodiments are possible
