APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR COORDINATED SPATIAL REUSE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18159383 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR COORDINATED SPATIAL REUSE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

Simplified Explanation

Abstract

A wireless communication method is described in this patent application. The method involves a first apparatus acquiring a transmit opportunity (TXOP) to transmit or receive a first physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU). It also involves identifying a second apparatus for sharing the TXOP, permitting the transmission or reception of a second PPDU to the second apparatus in the shared TXOP, and transmitting the first PPDU to at least one third apparatus in the shared TXOP or receiving the first PPDU from the at least one third apparatus.

Patent/Innovation Explanation

  • The method involves a wireless communication method performed by a first apparatus.
  • The first apparatus acquires a transmit opportunity (TXOP) to transmit or receive a first physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU).
  • It identifies a second apparatus for sharing the TXOP.
  • It permits the transmission or reception of a second PPDU to the second apparatus in the shared TXOP.
  • It transmits the first PPDU to at least one third apparatus in the shared TXOP or receives the first PPDU from the at least one third apparatus.

Potential Applications

This wireless communication method can have various potential applications, including:

  • Mobile communication networks
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Wireless sensor networks
  • Smart home automation systems
  • Industrial automation and control systems

Problems Solved

This technology solves several problems in wireless communication, such as:

  • Efficient utilization of transmit opportunities (TXOP) by sharing them among multiple apparatus.
  • Enabling simultaneous transmission or reception of multiple protocol data units (PPDUs) within a shared TXOP.
  • Facilitating communication between multiple apparatus in a wireless network.

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Improved efficiency and utilization of wireless communication resources.
  • Enhanced throughput and capacity of wireless networks.
  • Reduced latency and improved reliability in wireless communication.
  • Facilitating communication and coordination among multiple apparatus in a wireless network.
