MUTI-LINK POWER MANAGMENT FOR MLTI-LINK DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18353814 titled 'MUTI-LINK POWER MANAGMENT FOR MLTI-LINK DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a wireless communication network that includes an access point (AP) multi-link device (MLD) and a non-AP MLD. The AP MLD transmits an indication of pending traffic on a second link to a first station affiliated with the non-AP MLD. The second station affiliated with the non-AP MLD then transmits a trigger frame via the second link to retrieve the pending traffic. The AP MLD responds by transmitting the pending traffic to the second station via the second link.

The wireless communication network includes an AP MLD and a non-AP MLD.
The AP MLD sends an indication of pending traffic on a second link to a first station affiliated with the non-AP MLD.
The second station affiliated with the non-AP MLD sends a trigger frame via the second link to retrieve the pending traffic.
The AP MLD transmits the pending traffic to the second station via the second link in response to receiving the trigger frame.

Potential applications of this technology:

Wireless communication networks in various industries such as telecommunications, IoT, and smart homes.
Improving the efficiency and reliability of wireless communication by efficiently retrieving pending traffic.

Problems solved by this technology:

Efficiently notifying and retrieving pending traffic in a wireless communication network.
Reducing delays and improving the overall performance of the network.

Benefits of this technology:

Improved communication efficiency and reliability.
Reduced delays and improved response times in wireless networks.
Enhanced user experience in applications that rely on wireless communication.

Original Abstract Submitted

A wireless communication network includes an access point (AP) multi-link device (MLD) and a non-AP MLD. The AP MLD transmits to a first station affiliated with the non-AP MLD via a first link an indication of pending traffic on a second link. A second station affiliated with the non-AP MLD transmits via the second link a trigger frame to retrieve pending traffic. The AP MLD transmits the pending traffic to the second station affiliated with the non-AP MLD via the second link in response to receiving the trigger frame. In addition, various embodiments that are understood through the present disclosure may be implemented.
