Abstract

For directional wireless communications, at least one new response to a Request-to-Send (RTS) message has been created to avoid a hidden-node problem that is particular to directional networks. In response to an RTS received during a NAV period, a Denial-to-Send (DTS) may be transmitted to indicate that the responding device cannot currently communicate further because its NAV is currently set, but it will be ready to communicate after expiration of the time period specified in the DTS.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to directional responses in wireless networks. Background technique [0002] The ubiquitous request-to-send / clear-to-send (RTS / CTS) mechanism used in WiFi wireless networks provides many benefits, including alleviating the hidden terminal problem and establishing protection for subsequent data exchange between two devices. Recently, the same RTS / CTS exchange has been proposed for mmWave (eg, 60 GHz) communication, which is characterized by directional communication. However, due to the nature of directional transmission and reception, a new type of hidden terminal problem has been introduced that is not addressed by the standard RTS / CTS protocols. For example, when a first device has established a directional link with a second device in a direction containing an unrelated third device, and detects an RTS from that third device, the first device knows to set its Network Allocation Vector (NAV) , so that it will not trans...
