TRIGGER BASED NULL DATA PACKET TRANSMISSION METHOD AND RELATED APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18464072 titled 'TRIGGER BASED NULL DATA PACKET TRANSMISSION METHOD AND RELATED APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method and apparatus for transmitting null data packets in a wireless local area network (WLAN) supporting the 802.11be standard. The method involves receiving a trigger frame, determining the available resources for scheduling the WLAN station, and sending the appropriate null data packet based on the available modulation bandwidth.
- The method involves receiving a trigger frame, which contains information for scheduling the WLAN station.
- The method determines whether the available resources for scheduling are in the EHT modulation bandwidth or the HE modulation bandwidth.
- If the resources are in the EHT modulation bandwidth, an EHT TB NDP (null data packet) is sent.
- If the resources are in the HE modulation bandwidth, an HE TB NDP is sent.
- The NFRP trigger frame includes a first user information field, which is used to schedule the WLAN station to send the appropriate null data packet in the corresponding modulation bandwidth.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Wireless local area networks (WLANs) supporting the 802.11be standard.
- Communication systems requiring efficient transmission of null data packets.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficient scheduling and transmission of null data packets in WLANs.
- Optimizing the use of available modulation bandwidth for different types of data packets.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved efficiency in transmitting null data packets.
- Enhanced utilization of available modulation bandwidth.
- Better overall performance and throughput in WLANs.
Original Abstract Submitted
A trigger based null data packet transmission method and a related apparatus are provided, which relate to wireless communication, and are applied to a wireless local area network supporting an 802.11be standard. The method includes: receiving, by an EHT station, an NFRP trigger frame; determining whether a resource for scheduling the EHT station is in an EHT modulation bandwidth or an HE modulation bandwidth based on information in the NFRP trigger frame; and sending an EHT TB NDP if the resource is in the EHT modulation bandwidth; or sending an HE TB NDP if the resource is in the HE modulation bandwidth, where the NFRP trigger frame includes a first user information field, and is used to schedule the EHT station to send the HE TB NDP in the HE modulation bandwidth and send the EHT TB NDP in the EHT modulation bandwidth.
