Abstract:
A method and apparatus of controlling a transmit power in a wireless local area network is provided. A wireless device operated in a TV White Space transmits a white space map indicating a list of available channels, and transmits an extended power constraint indicating a plurality of transmission channels and a plurality of maximum transmit powers, wherein the plurality of transmission channels are selected among the list of available channels and each of the plurality of maximum transmit powers corresponds to a maximum transmit power for each of the plurality of transmission channels. Interference can be mitigated between wireless devices operated in the TV White Space.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are described for performing cipher communication in a wireless local area network system. A pseudo noise (PN) code sequence for a plaintext Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol data unit (MPDU) is obtained. An additional authentication data (AAD) is constructed by using at least one field in a header of the plaintext MPDU. A Nonce is constructed from the PN code sequence, an Address 2 field in the header of the plaintext MPDU and a Priority field in the header of the plaintext MPDU. A counter mode (CTR) is generated with cipher block chaining (CBC)-MAC Protocol (CCMP) header. Encrypted data and Message Integrity Code (MIC) are generated by using a temporal key, the AAD, and the Nonce. An encrypted MPDU is generated to be transmitted to a peer station by combining the plaintext MPDU header, the CCMP header, the encrypted data and the MIC.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to receiving control information in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system of a mobile communication system. The present invention includes receiving information related to a number of OFDM symbols in a subframe for receiving first control information, receiving information related to a number of OFDM symbols in the subframe for receiving second control information, decoding the first control information according to the received information related to the number of OFDM symbols in the subframe for receiving the first control information, and decoding the second control information according to the received information related to the number of OFDM symbols in the subframe for receiving the second control information, wherein the number of OFDM symbols for receiving the first control information is less than or equal to the number of OFDM symbols for receiving the second control information.
