COMMUNICATION APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240204930 titled 'COMMUNICATION APPARATUS

The communication apparatus described in the patent application is designed to receive trigger frames containing information about Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) conforming to the IEEE 802.11 standard while in a first mode. The communication unit then processes communication using OFDMA based on this information. The control unit ensures that when switching to a second mode, OFDMA is not used in wireless communication.

  • First reception unit receives trigger frames with OFDMA information
  • Communication unit processes communication using OFDMA
  • Control unit manages OFDMA usage in different modes
  • Enables seamless transition between OFDMA and non-OFDMA modes
  • Complies with IEEE 802.11 standard for wireless communication

Potential Applications: - Wireless communication devices - Networking equipment - IoT devices

Problems Solved: - Efficient use of OFDMA in different communication modes - Seamless transition between different wireless communication standards

Benefits: - Improved communication efficiency - Enhanced flexibility in communication modes - Better utilization of wireless spectrum

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Wireless Communication Apparatus for Efficient OFDMA Usage" This technology can be utilized in various wireless communication devices, networking equipment, and IoT devices to optimize communication efficiency and flexibility. It can have significant implications in industries such as telecommunications, IoT, and networking.

Prior Art: Readers can explore prior patents related to OFDMA usage in wireless communication devices, IEEE 802.11 standards, and communication mode switching to gain a deeper understanding of the existing technology landscape.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in OFDMA technology, IEEE 802.11 standards, and wireless communication protocols to leverage the latest developments in the field.

Questions about the Communication Apparatus: 1. How does the control unit manage the transition between OFDMA and non-OFDMA modes? The control unit ensures that OFDMA usage is controlled based on the enabled mode, allowing for seamless transitions between different communication standards.

2. What are the potential implications of this technology in IoT devices? This technology can enhance communication efficiency and flexibility in IoT devices, improving overall performance and connectivity.


Original Abstract Submitted

a communication apparatus is provided that includes a first reception unit configured to receive, while a first mode is enabled, a first trigger frame including information about orthogonal frequency division multiple access (ofdma) conforming to the ieee 802.11 standard from an external access point external to the communication apparatus, a communication unit configured to perform communication processing in the first mode through ofdma conforming to the ieee 802.11 standard based on information about the first trigger frame, and a control unit configured to control, even in a case where ofdma conforming to the ieee 802.11 standard is enabled in the first mode, the communication apparatus so that, upon enabling of a second mode, ofdma conforming to the ieee 802.11 standard is not performed in a wireless communication in the second mode.
