    Abstract: A wireless access point device wirelessly communicates with a plurality of wireless client devices. The wireless access point includes a central processor subsystem and a plurality of transceiver devices each including a plurality of antennas, and a plurality of radio transceivers, each of the plurality of transceiver devices configured for deployment throughout a coverage area, each transceiver device being connected to the central processor subsystem via a respective cable. The central processor subsystem distributes in-phase and quadrature baseband samples across the plurality of transceiver devices associated with traffic to be transmitted and received via the plurality of transceiver devices in one or more frequency bands so as to synthesize a wideband multiple-input multiple-output transmission channel and a wideband multiple-input multiple-output reception channel. The access point transmit and receive functions are “split” or partitioned across the plurality of transceivers devices.

    Abstract: A central processor subsystem controls multiple transceivers. Each transceiver transmits protocol data units from antennas of that transceiver and produces receive waveforms from wirelessly received signals at the one or more antennas. A transmit waveform, including a frame addressed to one or more wireless client devices, is sent through a first transceiver to be transmitted wirelessly by the first transceiver on a frequency channel. A receive waveform, representative of the transmission by the first transceiver and wirelessly received at a second transceiver, is received from the second transceiver. While the transmit waveform is being sent to the first transceiver: a level of collision between the receive waveform and another transmission on the frequency channel is detected; and if the level of collision exceeds a threshold prior to an end of the receive waveform, the transmit waveform being sent to the first transceiver is modified to reduce the collision.

    Abstract: An access point (AP) includes a transceiver to service wireless client traffic on wireless channels within a channel bandwidth. The AP services wireless client traffic in a first channel bandwidth and sets a receiver bandwidth to include the first channel bandwidth and a second channel bandwidth initially not available for servicing wireless client traffic. Concurrent with servicing the wireless client traffic in the first channel bandwidth, the AP searches the second channel bandwidth for any interference signal. If no interference signal is found in the second channel bandwidth, the AP declares the second channel bandwidth free of interference.

    Abstract: A wireless receiver (e.g., access point (AP)) is a member of a group of a plurality of receivers in a wireless local area network and time synchronized with other receivers in the group. A channel scan list is generated from a plurality of wireless channels available in one or more frequency bands. A channel is selected for the receiver to monitor from the channel scan list based on a current time at the receiver such that each of the plurality of receivers in the group are scanning the same channel at the same time. The selected channel is scanned and signal characteristic information (e.g., received signal strength (RSS)) is generated for the signals received during a given scan duration.

    Abstract: Presented herein are methodologies for handling multicast traffic that is transmitted to mobile devices in a given basic service set (BSS). The methodology includes detecting membership of clients in an Internet Protocol (IP) multicast group in a basic service set of a wireless network; determining whether the IP multicast group and its associated multicast traffic meet predetermined criteria; when the IP multicast group and its associated multicast traffic meet the predetermined criteria, negotiating with each client in the IP multicast group to have a target wake time (TWT) that includes, at least, a coincident overlap window of sufficient duration to transmit the multicast traffic associated with the IP multicast group; and transmitting the multicast traffic associated with the IP multicast group during the coincident overlap window, wherein the coincident overlap window is different from a delivery traffic indication message (DTIM) service period.

    Abstract: Bypassing radar in wide Dynamic Frequency Selection (DFS) channels utilizing puncturing may be provided. A first client device may be classified as eligible for puncturing and a second client device may be classified as not eligible for puncturing. Next, it may be determined that a subchannel in a bandwidth range should not be used. Then, in response to determining that the subchannel in the bandwidth range should not be used, the first client device may be steered to a first subset of the bandwidth range and the second client device may be steered to a second subset of the bandwidth range. The second subset of the bandwidth range may be smaller than the first subset of the bandwidth range.
