    Abstract: Data to be transmitted to a user device may be received at a network device. It may be determined that the user device has network connectivity to the network device via a wide area wireless network connection and that the user device also separately has connectivity to the network device via a local area wireless network connection to an access point. The data may be split so that some portion of the data is to be transmitted by the wide area wireless network connection and another portion of the data is to be transmitted by the local area wireless network connection.

    Abstract: An access point (AP) transmits Wi-Fi transmit frames according to a Wi-Fi protocol and Long-Term Evolution-Unlicensed (LTE-U) transmit frames according to an LTE-U protocol in a shared channel bandwidth that encompasses unlicensed channel bandwidth associated with the LTE-U protocol. The AP assigns a Wi-Fi access category to each Wi-Fi transmit frame and assigns to each LTE-U transmit frame an LTE-U access category. The AP schedules Wi-Fi and LTE-U transmit opportunities for the Wi-Fi transmit frames and the LTE-U transmit frames, respectively, in the shared channel bandwidth based on the Wi-Fi and LTE-U access categories. The scheduling includes, for each scheduled LTE-U transmit opportunity: constructing a Wi-Fi quiet message commanding Wi-Fi clients of the AP not to transmit in the shared channel bandwidth during the LTE-U transmit opportunity; and scheduling the Wi-Fi quiet message for transmission to the Wi-Fi clients.

    Abstract: A first network device may operate as a base station in a wireless wide area network (WWAN) and may establish a WWAN connection with a user device. A media access control (MAC) address of the user device may be obtained and sent to a second network device which operates an access point for a wireless local area network (WLAN). An acknowledgement containing a first service set identifier of the WLAN may be received from the second network device and sent to the user device to set up a secondary connection. An identifier for ordered data communication may used to enable in order communication through both the first and the second network devices. Data to be transmitted to the user device may be split into a first portion and a second portion, and transmitted through the WWAN connection and to the second network device for transmission to the user device via the WLAN respectively.

    Abstract: A controller controls access points (APs) in a network of APs. The controller causes the first AP to establish an Internet Protocol (IP) tunnel with a router connected with a wired network and over which data packets are routed between the wired network and a client device wirelessly connected to the first AP. The controller receives a roam indication that the client device is wirelessly connected with a second AP. In response to the indication, the controller instructs the first AP to maintain the IP tunnel with the router and instructs the second AP to establish an inter-AP tunnel with the first AP in order to route traffic between the wired network and the client device over both the IP tunnel and the inter-AP tunnel.

    Abstract: A first wireless device determines the duration of a clear channel assessment interval based on feedback signals before transmitting data to a second wireless device. The first wireless device receives feedback signals, such as acknowledgement (ACK) and negative acknowledgement (NAK) signals, from one or more second wireless devices. The first wireless device determines a ratio of NAK/ACK signals in the feedback signals for a predetermined amount of time. The first wireless device determines whether the wireless medium is free by monitoring for wireless signals during a clear channel assessment interval. The duration of the clear channel assessment interval is based on the ratio of NAK/ACK signals. If the wireless medium is free for the duration of the clear channel assessment, the first wireless device wirelessly transmits data to at least one of the second wireless devices.
