Benefits of technology

This technology helps manage communication among multiple devices within an access point or wireless local area network (WLAN). It uses certain rules that determine how long each device sends signals over its own interface before it starts transmitting data packets on another channel. By doing this, conflicts can be reduced without affecting performance for other connected networks.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical solution describes how two devices communicate over multiple networks called stations without colliding at any given moment. However, if one station has several users waiting while another user tries to transmit messages simultaneously they may collide because their transmission attempts overlap. There could happen even though both parties have different levels of priority. Additionally, some communication systems require specific timeslots during certain periods where packets arrive together instead of being transmitted sequentially. These issues make coordation difficult.

Embodiment Construction

[0040] The core idea of ​​the present invention is: the AP uniformly determines the message length threshold of the RTS / CTS mechanism, and notifies the STA of the threshold, replacing the existing decentralized control of the RTS threshold by the STA, so as to realize the control of the message sent by the STA. Unified management to resolve conflicts caused by different STAs sending messages when the BSS range is large (such as a distributed environment).

[0041] A method for managing STAs in a BSS network in the present invention is shown in Figure 5, comprising the following steps:

[0042] In step s501, the AP adds the packet length threshold for RTS negotiation to the frame sent to the STA.

[0043] Specifically, the packet length threshold may be set by the AP according to factors such as the distribution of STAs in the BSS network, whether the network is a distributed environment, and network traffic characteristics. For networks with long distances between STAs or in ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a management method for a client terminal STA within a BSS network, which includes the following steps: an Access Point (AP) adds the threshold value of message length, which is sending a request for an RTS negotiation, into a frame which is sent to the STA; and then the AP sends the frame containing the threshold value of message length to the STA so as to control the messages sent by the STA. The invention also discloses a management device for the client STA within the BSS network. By using the invention, the threshold value of message length of RTS/CTS mechanism is determined by the AP, and the STA is notified of the threshold value, thereby realizing management of the messages sent by the STA, replacing the existing decentralized control for the RTS threshold value by the STA and solving the conflict resulting from messages sent by different STAs in case of relatively wide scope of the BSS.
