COORDINATED ACCESS POINT TRANSMISSIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240224257 titled 'COORDINATED ACCESS POINT TRANSMISSIONS

The patent application relates to methods, devices, and systems for sharing resources of a wireless medium, specifically focusing on Coordinated AP (CAP) Time-Division-Multiple-Access (TDMA) and Orthogonal-Frequency-Division-Multiple Access (OFDMA) techniques for sharing time or frequency resources of a Transmission Opportunity (TXOP).

CAP TDMA and OFDMA techniques allow an AP that wins contention for the wireless medium to share its resources with other selected APs.
The winning AP can partition the TXOP into multiple time or frequency segments, allocating each segment to itself or to one of the selected APs.
This method enables efficient sharing of resources among multiple APs, improving overall network performance and capacity.

Potential Applications: - Wireless communication networks - Internet of Things (IoT) devices - Smart home systems - Industrial automation

Problems Solved: - Resource allocation in wireless networks - Network congestion management - Interference mitigation

Benefits: - Increased network efficiency - Enhanced data transmission rates - Improved overall network performance

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Resource Sharing Techniques for Wireless Networks" This technology can be applied in various industries such as telecommunications, smart cities, and industrial automation, leading to more reliable and efficient wireless communication systems.

Prior Art: Readers can explore prior research on CAP TDMA and OFDMA techniques in wireless communication networks to understand the evolution of resource sharing technologies.

Frequently Updated Research: Researchers are continuously exploring new methods to optimize resource sharing in wireless networks, including advancements in CAP TDMA and OFDMA techniques.

Questions about Resource Sharing Techniques in Wireless Networks: 1. How do CAP TDMA and OFDMA techniques improve resource sharing in wireless networks? - CAP TDMA and OFDMA techniques enhance resource sharing by allowing APs to efficiently allocate time or frequency segments among themselves, improving network performance and capacity.

2. What are the potential challenges associated with implementing CAP TDMA and OFDMA techniques in wireless networks? - Challenges may include coordination among APs, interference management, and ensuring fair resource allocation among network devices.

Original Abstract Submitted

this disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for sharing resources of a wireless medium. particular implementations relate more specifically to coordinated ap (cap) time-division-multiple-access (tdma) and orthogonal-frequency-division-multiple access (ofdma) techniques for sharing the time or frequency resources of a transmission opportunity (txop). according to such techniques, an ap that wins contention and gains access to the wireless medium for the duration of a txop may share its time or frequency resources with other selected aps. to share its resources, the winning ap may partition the txop into multiple time or frequency segments each including respective time or frequency resources representing a portion of the txop, and allocate each of the time or frequency segments to itself or to one of the selected aps.
