WLAN Enhancements for Co-existence - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18191662 titled 'WLAN Enhancements for Co-existence
Simplified Explanation
The patent application is about improving WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) co-existence with other radio access technologies like Bluetooth, 5G NR, and UWB.
- WLAN transmissions can be shortened to better fit within available transmission times.
- A wireless device can specify a frame size limitation for WLAN communications to shorten the transmissions of a peer device.
- The frame size limitation can be indicated through various types of frames such as data frames, management frames, beacon frames, association request frames, and association response frames.
Original Abstract Submitted
Systems, methods, and mechanisms for WLAN enhancements to facilitate co-existence with other radio access technologies, such as Bluetooth, 5G NR, and/or UWB. For example, WLAN transmissions may be shortened, e.g., to better fit within available transmission times. A wireless device may shorten WLAN transmissions of a peer device by specifying a frame size limitation for WLAN communications. The frame size limitation may be indicated via a data frame, a management frame, a beacon frame, an association request frame, and/or an association response frame.
