PHYSICAL LAYER PREAMBLE AND SIGNALING FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18092361 titled 'PHYSICAL LAYER PREAMBLE AND SIGNALING FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

Simplified Explanation

This patent application describes methods, devices, and systems for wireless communication that include signaling for enhanced features of new wireless communication protocols. The signaling is included in the physical layer preamble of a wireless transmission. Here are the key points:

• Signaling for enhanced features of new wireless communication protocols is included in the physical layer preamble of a wireless transmission.
• The physical layer preamble can indicate the puncturing of subbands or content channels that may carry further signaling.
• The physical layer preamble signaling can be parallelized for different subchannels of a wireless channel that consists of multiple subchannels.
• The physical layer preambles can be used to multiplex different types of wireless local area network communications into different subsets of the subchannels of the wireless channel.

Potential applications of this technology:

• Improved wireless communication protocols for various applications such as IoT devices, mobile devices, and wireless networks.
• Enhanced features and capabilities in wireless communication systems, leading to better performance and reliability.
• Efficient utilization of wireless channels by multiplexing different types of communications into subsets of subchannels.

Problems solved by this technology:

• Lack of signaling for enhanced features in existing wireless communication protocols.
• Inefficient utilization of wireless channels and subchannels.
• Limited flexibility in multiplexing different types of communications in wireless networks.

Benefits of this technology:

• Improved performance and reliability of wireless communication systems.
• Enhanced features and capabilities in wireless communication protocols.
• Efficient utilization of wireless channels and subchannels.
• Flexibility in multiplexing different types of communications in wireless networks.

Original Abstract Submitted

This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for wireless communication, and particularly, methods, devices and systems for including signaling regarding enhanced features of new wireless communication protocols. The signaling may be included in various portions of a physical layer preamble of a wireless transmission. In some implementations, the physical layer preamble may be used to indicate puncturing of subbands or content channels that may carry further signaling in accordance with preamble signaling designs of this disclosure. The physical layer preamble signaling be parallelized for different subchannels of a wireless channel that consists of multiple subchannels. Some implementations of the physical layer preambles may be used to multiplex different types of wireless local area network communications into different subsets of the plurality of subchannels of the wireless channel.
