METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING OR RECEIVING FRAME IN WIRELESS LAN SYSTEM AND APPARATUS THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18514607 titled 'METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING OR RECEIVING FRAME IN WIRELESS LAN SYSTEM AND APPARATUS THEREFOR
Simplified Explanation
The method described in the abstract involves transmitting a frame in a wireless LAN system supporting an HE PPDU by setting a first duration field in an HE-SIG A field and transmitting the frame including the HE-SIG A field and a MAC header. The first duration field indicates a TXOP value using fewer bits than a second duration field in the MAC header, with a different granularity of time unit used for indicating the TXOP value.
- Simplified Explanation:
- Transmitting frames in a wireless LAN system with high efficiency by setting a duration field in the HE-SIG A field. - Using a smaller number of bits to indicate TXOP value in the first duration field compared to the second duration field in the MAC header. - Employing different granularities of time units for TXOP value indication in the first and second duration fields.
- Potential Applications:
- High-speed wireless communication systems - Internet of Things (IoT) devices - Smart home technology
- Problems Solved:
- Efficient transmission of frames in a wireless LAN system - Optimization of TXOP value indication - Enhanced performance in high-density network environments
- Benefits:
- Improved data transmission efficiency - Better utilization of network resources - Enhanced overall network performance
- Potential Commercial Applications:
- Networking equipment manufacturers - Telecommunication companies - IoT device manufacturers
- Possible Prior Art:
- Previous methods of frame transmission in wireless LAN systems - Existing techniques for indicating TXOP values in duration fields
- Unanswered Questions:
- How does this method compare to existing frame transmission techniques in terms of efficiency?
- Unanswered Questions:
This article does not directly compare the efficiency of this method to existing techniques. It would be beneficial to have a comparative analysis to understand the advantages better.
- What impact does the use of different granularities of time units have on the overall performance of the wireless LAN system?
The abstract mentions the use of different granularities of time units, but it does not elaborate on how this impacts the system's performance. Further information on this aspect would provide a clearer picture of the technology's benefits.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method of transmitting a frame by a station (STA) in a wireless LAN system supporting an HE PPDU (high efficiency physical layer protocol data unit) according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: setting a first duration field included in an HE-SIG A field; and transmitting a frame including the HE-SIG A field and a MAC header, wherein the first duration field is set to indicate a TXOP (transmission opportunity) value using a smaller number of bits than a second duration field included in the MAC header, and a granularity of a time unit used for indicating the TXOP value in the first duration field is set to be different from a granularity of a time unit used in the second duration field.
