Method and Apparatus for Transmitting PLCP Frame in Wireless Local Area Network System - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18405494 titled 'Method and Apparatus for Transmitting PLCP Frame in Wireless Local Area Network System
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method of transmitting a Physical Layer Convergence Procedure (PLCP) frame in a Very High Throughput (VHT) Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) system.
- Generating a MAC Protocol Data Unit (MPDU) to be transmitted to a destination station (STA)
- Generating a PLCP Protocol Data Unit (PPDU) by adding a PLCP header, including an L-SIG field for legacy STA control information and a VHT-SIG field for VHT STA control information, to the MPDU
- Transmitting the PPDU to the destination STA
- Obtaining a constellation applied to some OFDM symbols of the VHT-SIG field by rotating a constellation applied to an OFDM symbol of the L-SIG field
Potential Applications
This technology can be applied in high-speed wireless communication systems, such as Wi-Fi networks, to improve data transmission efficiency and reliability.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient transmission of data in VHT WLAN systems 2. Ensuring compatibility with legacy STA devices while supporting VHT STA devices
Benefits
1. Increased throughput and performance in VHT WLAN systems 2. Enhanced reliability and stability of data transmission 3. Improved coexistence with legacy devices
Potential Commercial Applications
"Enhancing Data Transmission in VHT WLAN Systems"
Possible Prior Art
Prior art may include existing methods of transmitting PLCP frames in WLAN systems, as well as techniques for improving data transmission efficiency in wireless networks.
Unanswered Questions
How does this method impact the overall network performance in a crowded Wi-Fi environment?
This method may improve the performance of individual connections, but its impact on overall network performance in a crowded environment is not explicitly addressed in the abstract.
What are the potential security implications of implementing this method in a VHT WLAN system?
The abstract does not mention any security considerations related to implementing this method, so further investigation would be needed to understand the potential security implications.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method of transmitting a Physical Layer Convergence Procedure (PLCP) frame in a Very High Throughput (VHT) Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) system includes generating a MAC Protocol Data Unit (MPDU) to be transmitted to a destination station (STA), generating a PLCP Protocol Data Unit (PPDU) by adding a PLCP header, including an L-SIG field containing control information for a legacy STA and a VHT-SIG field containing control information for a VHT STA, to the MPDU, and transmitting the PPDU to the destination STA. A constellation applied to some of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) symbols of the VHT-SIG field is obtained by rotating a constellation applied to an OFDM symbol of the L-SIGfield.
