摘要:
Methods and apparatus to manage power consumption in wireless devices are disclosed. A disclosed example apparatus comprises performing a first received signal strength indicator (RSSI) scan to determine a beacon interval and a first beacon time for a wireless channel, calculating a second beacon time for the wireless channel based on the beacon interval and the first beacon time, and performing a second RSSI scan for the wireless channel during a time interval that includes the calculated second beacon time. In some examples, the wireless channel is a wireless channel that was previously identified as active, is a wireless channel that previously had the highest received power level, and/or is selected from a list of popular or frequently used channels. Additionally or alternatively, when a wireless channel with sufficient signal level is identified, scanning for additional channels is not performed.

One embodiment of the present invention relates to a network element that is configured to be associated with a network having a number of nodes. A proxy node is configured to distinguish between a some signals received from a master node and other signals received from at least one hidden node, where the at least one hidden node is unable to bi-directionally directly communicate with the master at a given time. The proxy node is further configured to relay at least one signal between the master node and the hidden node to facilitate addition of the hidden node to the network via the master node. Other methods and devices are also disclosed.

A communication apparatus is provided. The communication apparatus includes a first unit for performing data communication using a bandwidth reservation type transmission area constituted by a plurality of time-divided time slots via a power line to which an alternating-current voltage is supplied. A second unit is connected to the first unit, for securing a vacant time slot out of the plurality of time-divided time slots. A third unit is connected to the first unit, for securing a time slot out of the plurality of time-divided time slots when incapable of securing the vacant time slot, the secured time slot being used in common by a first communication system used by the communication apparatus and a second communication system different from the first communication system, the second communication system using the same communication procedure as the first communication system.

One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for facilitating proportionally fair-share time slot reservations with a fast increase, slow decrease rate controller in an ad hoc dynamic wireless broadcast network. During operation, the system determines local time slot demand, based on transmitted and queued data corresponding to one or more previous decision points. Next, the system broadcasts the local time slot demand to one or more neighbors. The system also determines neighbor time slot demands, where a respective neighbor time slot demand indicates a particular neighbor's local time slot demand corresponding to one or more previous decision points. Next, the system determines neighborhood time slot demand, based on the local time slot demand and the neighbor time slot demands. Next, the system determines allowable reserved time slots based on the local time slot demand and allowable reserved time slots corresponding to one or more previous decision points.

Method and system of adjusting a first phase shift between a first data signal and a clock signal at a sending device. First and second test signals representing first and second test data, respectively, are transmitted to a receiving device. The test signals have respective phase shifts relative to the clock signal. An error detection code is calculated from first and second received data carried by the transmitted signals. The error detection code is transmitted from the receiving device to the sending device. An estimated first received data is calculated from the error detection code, wherein the estimated first received data are calculated under the assumption that the second received data are identical to the second test data. The first phase shift is adjusted on the basis of a comparison of the estimated first received data and the first test data.

There is disclosed a method of generating a data flow and a high speed packet generator. A sequence of packets to be transmitted may be defined. Generation of each packet in the sequence may be assigned to a respective transmit engine selected from a plurality of transmit engines. The plurality of transmit engines may generate respective assigned packets in parallel. Packets generated by the plurality of transmit engines may be coherently interleaved in the defined sequence to form the data flow.

A modulator modulates the packet data signal. A correction unit 18 adjusts the amplitude component of the modulated data signal. An amplifier amplifies the adjusted data signal and outputs the data signal. A control unit controls the operation of the amplifier. The control unit turns on the operation of the amplifier at the header timing of a packet. The amplifier generates a transient response in the header part of the packet when the amplifier is turned on. In accordance with the inverse characteristic of the transient response generated in the amplifier, the correction unit adjusts the amplitude component of the modulated data signal.
