PROVISION PERIOD MANAGEMENT FOR ENSURING A LOW LATENCY SERVICE IN A BSS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18248369 titled 'PROVISION PERIOD MANAGEMENT FOR ENSURING A LOW LATENCY SERVICE IN A BSS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for improving the usage of network resources and handling low latency traffic in IEEE 802.11 networks.

  • The method involves an access point (AP) contending for access to a wireless medium before a low latency service period (LL SP) begins.
  • The AP reserves a transmission opportunity that covers the entire LL SP once it gains access to the wireless medium.
  • This reservation allows for the transmission of low latency traffic during the LL SP.
  • The goal is to ensure efficient utilization of network resources and timely handling of low latency traffic.


Original Abstract Submitted

To make effective the usage of network resources and timely handling of low latency traffic, and in particular IEEE 802.11 networks, it is described according to an aspect of the invention a method of communication comprising, at an access-point, AP: contending for access to a wireless medium, a provision period prior a start of a low latency, LL, service period, SP, dedicated for transmitting LL traffic; and upon gaining access to the wireless medium, reserving an AP transmission opportunity encompassing the LL SP, thereby allowing transmission of LL traffic during the LL SP.
