METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LINK AND TRAFFIC LEVEL EPCS SETUP AND OPERATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18360654 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LINK AND TRAFFIC LEVEL EPCS SETUP AND OPERATIONS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes methods and apparatuses for setting up and operating emergency preparedness communication services (EPCS) in wireless networks. Specifically, it focuses on non-access point (AP) multi-link devices (MLDs) that include stations (STAs). Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

  • The method involves a non-AP MLD forming a link with a corresponding AP MLD.
  • The non-AP MLD receives information related to EPCS priority access from the corresponding AP.
  • It determines whether EPCS priority access is enabled on all the links between the STAs and corresponding APs.
  • If EPCS priority access is enabled for all the links, the current EPCS priority access continues.
  • If EPCS priority access is not enabled for all the links, the non-AP MLD performs EPCS priority access on some but not all of the links.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Emergency preparedness communication services (EPCS) in wireless networks.
  • Providing priority access to emergency services during critical situations.
  • Enhancing communication capabilities in emergency scenarios.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensuring that emergency communication services have priority access during emergencies.
  • Optimizing the use of available links between non-AP MLDs and corresponding APs.
  • Managing network resources efficiently during emergency situations.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved reliability and availability of emergency communication services.
  • Enhanced coordination and response capabilities during emergencies.
  • Efficient utilization of network resources for emergency preparedness.


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods and apparatuses for link and traffic level emergency preparedness communication services (EPCS) setup and operations are disclosed. A method for wireless communication performed by a non-access point (AP) multi-link device (MLD) that includes stations (STAs) comprises: forming a link with a corresponding AP of an AP MLD; receiving information associated with emergency preparedness communication services (EPCS) priority access from the corresponding AP; determining whether the EPCS priority access is enabled on all of the links between the STAs and the corresponding APs; when the EPCS priority access is enabled for all of the links between the STAs and the corresponding APs, continuing with current EPCS priority access; and when the EPCS priority access is not enabled for all of the links between the STAs and the corresponding APs, performing the EPCS priority access on some but not all of the links between the STAs and the corresponding APs.
