HIGH EFFICIENCY SIGNALING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240214906 titled 'HIGH EFFICIENCY SIGNALING

The patent application describes systems and methods for high efficiency (HE) beacons in Wi-Fi technology, specifically for greenfield deployments without support for legacy devices.

• HE supported access points (APs) and stations (STAs) can operate on resource deployments for Wi-Fi technology without legacy device support.
• APs can transmit a HE physical layer convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) including a beacon frame with updated capability information.
• STAs can receive the HE or EHT PPDU from the AP and identify changes to the beacon frame relative to a reference beacon frame.
• Based on the identified changes, STAs can determine an updated content or format for the beacon frame and process it accordingly.

Potential Applications: - Next-generation Wi-Fi networks - Smart home devices - Industrial IoT applications

Problems Solved: - Improving efficiency in Wi-Fi networks - Enhancing communication between APs and STAs - Facilitating the transition to greenfield deployments

Benefits: - Increased data transmission efficiency - Enhanced network performance - Seamless integration with new devices

Commercial Applications: Title: "Advanced Wi-Fi Beacon Technology for Next-Gen Networks" This technology can be used in: - Smart home systems - Industrial automation - Public Wi-Fi networks

Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve data transmission efficiency in Wi-Fi networks? 2. What are the key differences between HE beacons and traditional beacons in Wi-Fi technology?

Original Abstract Submitted

this disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for high efficiency (he) beacons. he supported access points (aps) and stations (stas) may operate on resource deployments used for wi-fi technology and without support for legacy devices, also referred to as a greenfield deployment. an ap may identify updated capability information and transmit a he physical layer convergence protocol (plcp) protocol data unit (ppdu) including a beacon frame. a sta may receive, from the ap, the he or eht ppdu and identify an indication of change to a content or format of the beacon frame relative to a reference beacon frame. based on the identified indication, the sta may then determine an updated content or format for the beacon frame and process the beacon frame or skip processing for one or more portions of the beacon frame.
