摘要： A system and method for reducing wireless local area network (WLAN) interference with a different wireless network (non-WLAN). A wireless device includes a WLAN transceiver and a non-WLAN transceiver. The WLAN transceiver is configured to operate in a WLAN, and configured to operate selectively using one of a greater bandwidth and a lesser bandwidth in a frequency band. The wireless communication of the non-WLAN is incompatible with the WLAN. The non-WLAN transceiver is configured to request the WLAN transceiver operate using the lesser bandwidth.

摘要： Maintaining a simultaneous communication between a first wireless station and both an access point and a second wireless station includes the first wireless station gaining an instance of medium access by using applicable medium access protocols. Once the first wireless station gains an instance of medium access, it transmits frames to the access point on an infrastructure network and to the second wireless station on the same infrastructure network or an ad hoc network.

摘要： A method and a system are disclosed for maintaining a simultaneous communication between a first wireless station and both an access point and a second wireless station. The first and second wireless stations are associated with the access point, or only one of the wireless stations, but not both, is associated with the access point. The first wireless station gains an instance of medium access by using applicable medium access protocols. Once the first wireless station gains an instance of medium access, it transmits frames to the access point on an infrastructure network and to the second wireless station on the same infrastructure network or an ad hoc network. The overall air time must not exceed the maximum air time allowed for the instance of medium access. All transmitted frames must have a user priority mapped to the access category for which the instance of medium access was obtained.

摘要： An expanded sequence number is added to PDUs in a Bluetooth® low energy system. The expanded sequence number provides more accurate identification of the PDUs and allows the system to avoid delaying transmission of PDUs while retransmitting other PDUs. A PDU security sequence number may also be added to the PDUs. The security sequence number is used to create a unique nonce for use in encrypting or decrypting and authenticating the PDU. Using the security sequence number, a failed connection can be reestablished between two devices without the need of generating an encryption key. The security sequence number allows the devices to perform encryption or decryption and authentication using an existing key and a nonce generated from the security sequence number.

摘要： Methods and apparatus to provide fairness for wireless local area networks that use extended physical layer (a.k.a. PHY) protection mechanisms are disclosed. A disclosed example method comprises choosing a length field value for a frame header such that, when a transmit operation is ended, a legacy wireless station and a non-legacy wireless station of a wireless local area network are able to start contending for a wireless medium at substantially a same instant, and sending a frame across the wireless medium that includes the frame header.

摘要： Embodiments support stringent Quality of Service (QoS) requirements using adaptations to the existing Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) protocols. In systems using an enhanced BLE protocol, the master send a poll frame at selected connection intervals or poll intervals. The duration of the connection interval and/or poll interval may be calculated based upon desired QoS parameters, such as delay, target packet error rate (PER), frame error rate (FER), and/or jitter. The master may consider the connection interval lost if a frame is not received from the slave after a predetermined number (m) of consecutive poll frames are transmitted. The value m may be set relatively high to provide more robustness in the system. However, the poll interval may also need to be adjusted to meet QoS requirements. The slave may be required to transmit a packet—that may or may not carry data—in response to every mth received poll.

摘要翻译： 实施例通过适应现有的蓝牙低能量（BLE）协议来支持严格的服务质量（QoS）要求。 在使用增强型BLE协议的系统中，主机以选定的连接间隔或轮询间隔发送轮询帧。 连接间隔和/或轮询间隔的持续时间可以基于期望的QoS参数（例如延迟，目标分组错误率（PER）），帧错误率（FER）和/或抖动来计算。 如果在发送预定数量（m）个连续轮询帧之后没有从从站接收到帧，则主机可以考虑丢失的连接间隔。 值m可以设置得相对较高，以在系统中提供更强的鲁棒性。 但是，也可能需要调整轮询间隔以满足QoS要求。 响应于每第m次接收到的轮询，可能需要从机发送可能携带或不携带数据的分组。

摘要： An apparatus includes a controller configured to cause a wireless transceiver to send and receive wireless packets. The controller is configured to receive a packet from another wireless device. The packet specifies a scan window length, a scan interval, and a start time. Based on the start time, scan interval, and a current time, the controller is configured to compute when a subsequent scan window will begin and the wireless transceiver does not transmit advertising packets until the subsequent scan window begins.
