APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MULTI-LINK-BASED WIRELESS COMMUNICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18051752 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MULTI-LINK-BASED WIRELESS COMMUNICATION
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a wireless communication method performed by a first apparatus. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:
- The method involves obtaining back-off counts of multiple links.
- If the back-off count of a first link is zero, the method selects between two transmission methods.
- If the first transmission method is chosen, the method transmits first data to a second apparatus over the first link.
- If the second transmission method is chosen, the method delays the transmission of the first data until the back-off count of a second link becomes zero.
Potential Applications:
- This wireless communication method can be applied in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, Wi-Fi networks, or IoT networks.
- It can be used in scenarios where multiple links are present, and efficient data transmission is required.
Problems Solved:
- The method addresses the issue of congestion in wireless networks by utilizing back-off counts to determine the optimal transmission method.
- It helps in managing the transmission of data when multiple links are available, ensuring efficient utilization of network resources.
Benefits:
- The method allows for improved efficiency in wireless communication by selecting the appropriate transmission method based on back-off counts.
- It helps in reducing network congestion and optimizing data transmission, leading to better overall performance.
- By delaying transmission until the back-off count of a specific link becomes zero, the method ensures that data is sent at the most opportune time, minimizing delays and improving reliability.
Original Abstract Submitted
A wireless communication method performed by a first apparatus may include obtaining back-off counts of a plurality of links, when a back-off count of a first link among the plurality of links is zero, selecting a first or a second transmission method; when the first transmission method is selected, transmitting first data to a second apparatus over the first link, and when the second transmission method is selected, delaying transmission of the first data to the second apparatus until a back-off count of a second link among the plurality of links becomes zero.
