Abstract:
A method of operating a network coordinator for a spatial reuse scheme includes receiving a reservation request for a time period for a data communication of a target transmitter/receiver pair that uses a directional antenna, searching for a time period reserved in advance for another transmitter/receiver pair, from a Channel Time Allocation Period (CTAP) that is a contention-free access period for the data communication, and reserving a time period for the target transmitter/receiver pair in the CTAP, so that the time period reserved for the target transmitter/receiver pair overlaps the time period reserved in advance for the other transmitter/receiver pair.
Abstract:
A method of allocating time for a communication device includes receiving a request for allocation of a second time period related to a second communication link, after allocating a first time period related to a first communication link, and reserving the portion of the second period overlapping the first period, wherein the first link is generated between first and second communication devices, and the second link is generated between third and fourth communication devices. A further aspect of the method includes identifying the first period reserved in advance, and receiving the request for allocating the second period, and allocating the second period to spatially overlap the first time period. A further aspect of the method includes identifying an existing reservation for the first period of the first link, receiving a new reservation for the second period, and allocating the second period to spatially overlap the first period.
