ENHANCED MAPPING MECHANISM FOR TRANSMISSION IDENTIFIER TO LINK IN NON-COLLOCATED ACCESS POINT MULTI-LINK DOWNLINK SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18341551 Titled 'ENHANCED MAPPING MECHANISM FOR TRANSMISSION IDENTIFIER TO LINK IN NON-COLLOCATED ACCESS POINT MULTI-LINK DOWNLINK SYSTEMS'
Simplified Explanation
This abstract describes a system for managing multiple access points (APs) that are not physically located together. The system includes a device that can identify and map traffic identifiers (TIDs) to specific links for each non-collocated AP. This mapping information is then included in beacon or probe response frames transmitted by each AP. The device can also update the mapping information in response to changes in the status of the APs and transmit the updated mapping to other APs associated with the non-collocated APs.
Original Abstract Submitted
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to non-collocated MLD management. A device may identify a first non-collocated access point (AP) and a second non-collocated AP associated with a non-collocated AP multi-link device (MLD). The device may determine traffic identifier (TID)-to-link mapping for the first non-collocated AP and second non-collocated AP. The device may include the TID-to-link mapping element in beacon or probe response frames transmitted by each of the first non-collocated AP and second non-collocated AP. The device may update the TID-to-link mapping element in response to changes in status of either the first non-collocated AP or the second non-collocated AP. The device may transmit the updated TID-to-link mapping element to other APs affiliated with the non-collocated AP MLD.
