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

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18149123 titled 'PHYSICAL LAYER PREAMBLE AND SIGNALING FOR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

Simplified Explanation

This patent application describes methods, devices, and systems for wireless communication protocols, specifically focusing on signaling enhanced features. The signaling is incorporated into 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 carry further signaling.
• The physical layer preamble signaling can be parallelized for different subchannels within a wireless channel.
• The physical layer preamble can multiplex different types of wireless local area network communications into subsets of the subchannels within the wireless channel.

Potential applications of this technology:

• Improved wireless communication protocols with enhanced features.
• More efficient use of subbands and content channels for transmitting data.
• Multiplexing different types of wireless local area network communications for better network management.

Problems solved by this technology:

• Lack of signaling for enhanced features in wireless communication protocols.
• Inefficient use of subbands and content channels.
• Difficulty in managing different types of wireless local area network communications.

Benefits of this technology:

• Enhanced wireless communication protocols with improved features.
• Increased efficiency in transmitting data over subbands and content channels.
• Better management of different types of wireless local area network communications.

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.
