SINGLE-RADIO MULTI-CHANNEL MEDIUM ACCESS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240129977 titled 'SINGLE-RADIO MULTI-CHANNEL MEDIUM ACCESS
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system for single-radio multi-channel medium access in a wireless network. Here are some key points to explain the innovation:
- Device detects primary channel occupied by neighboring station's transmission
- Device finds secondary channel available for packet transmission
- Device selects secondary channel for sending packets while primary channel is busy
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various wireless communication systems where multiple channels are available for data transmission.
Problems Solved
1. Efficient utilization of available channels in a crowded network 2. Minimizing interference from neighboring devices in an overlapping basic service set
Benefits
1. Improved network performance and reliability 2. Enhanced data transmission efficiency 3. Better overall user experience in wireless communication
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimizing Wi-Fi networks in public spaces such as airports, shopping malls, and stadiums to provide better connectivity and user experience.
Possible Prior Art
There may be existing technologies or methods for channel selection and access in wireless networks, but specific prior art is not provided in this context.
Unanswered Questions
How does the device determine the availability of secondary channels for packet transmission?
The device may use a scanning mechanism to detect idle channels and select the most suitable one for transmission based on certain criteria.
What happens if the secondary channel becomes occupied during packet transmission?
If the secondary channel becomes busy while the device is transmitting a packet, the device may need to switch to another available channel or wait for the channel to become free again before continuing the transmission.
Original Abstract Submitted
this disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to single-radio multi-channel medium access. a device may detect that a primary channel is occupied by a transmission of a first packet by a neighboring station device in an overlapping basic service set (obss). the device may detect that a secondary channel is idle. the device may select the secondary channel for packet transmission while the primary channel is occupied by the first packet. the device may cause to send a second packet to a first station device using the secondary channel.
