Method, device and access device for packet polymerization

Abstract

The invention provides a method, a device and an access device for packet polymerization. The method for packet polymerization comprises the steps of: receiving a packet transmitted by a station; analyzing the packet to obtain the type of the packet and the identifier of the station carried by the packet; storing the packet into a buffer queue corresponding to the identifier of the station and the type of the packet; and when the number of packets in the buffer queue reaches a preset threshold value, polymerizing the packets in the buffer queue. The number of packets polymerized in one packet can be increased, the depth of frame aggregation can be increased, and wireless network resources can be utilized more reasonably.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to wireless communication technology, in particular to a message aggregation method, device and access equipment, and belongs to the field of communication technology. Background technique [0002] With the explosive growth of network information, the amount of information carried by the wireless LAN has increased sharply, making the originally scarce wireless resources more crowded, which will inevitably lead to wireless devices needing to spend more time fighting for and seizing resources to obtain services, thereby degrading the user experience. [0003] In order to effectively solve the above problems, some methods have been proposed in the prior art, such as: frame aggregation, etc., where frame aggregation includes Aggregated Media Access Control Protocol Data Unit (Aggregated Media Access Control Protocol Data Unit; hereinafter referred to as: AMPDU), Aggregated Media Access Aggregated Media Access Control Service ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, in the actual environment, since each AP occupies less time for wireless resources, in order to improve the success rate of packet transmission, the number of packets aggregated by the AP in a single packet is relatively small, so the aggregation depth is not high, reducing the air interface resource utilization

In addition, if the aggregation depth is not high, the same number of packets will require more aggregations. Usually, before sending aggregated packets, the AP needs to send (Request To Send; hereinafter referred to as: RTS) / clear to send (Clear To Send; hereinafter referred to as: CTS) to clear the sending obstacles, therefore, the low aggregation depth also increases the number of sending RTS / CTS that preempts resources and prolongs the time that air interface resources are occupied
