==DYNAMIC MU-MIMO STAGING FOR REAL-WORLD APPLICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


*This abstract for appeared for US patent application  number 17722601 Titled 'DYNAMIC MU-MIMO STAGING FOR REAL-WORLD APPLICATIONS'

==Simplified Explanation==

This abstract describes a system where an access point (AP) receives service-level agreement (SLA) parameters that specify a maximum delay for different types of data traffic. The AP then receives packets of data for different traffic flows. If the data in the first packets of a particular traffic flow is below a certain threshold, the AP delays their transmission. During this delay period, the AP continues to receive packets from this traffic flow as well as packets from another traffic flow. If the data in the first and second packets of the first traffic flow is above a certain threshold, and the data in the packets of the second traffic flow is also above a different threshold, the AP groups these traffic flows together and transmits them using a multi-user, multiple-input, multiple-output (MU-MIMO) communication method.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

An AP obtains service-level agreement (SLA) parameters indicating at least a delay bound for each of a plurality of traffic flows. The AP receives first packets of a first traffic flow, and delays their transmission for a delay period based on the data carried in the first packets being less than a first threshold. During the delay period, the AP receives second packets of the first traffic flow while also receiving packets of a second traffic flow, groups the second traffic flow with the first traffic flow for an MU-MIMO transmission based on the data carried in the first and second packets of the first traffic flow being greater than the first threshold and the data carried in the packets of the second traffic flow being greater than a second threshold, and transmits the first and second packets traffic flows as an MU-MIMO communication.
