METHODS AND DEVICES OF COMMUNICATION AND COMPUTER-READABLE INVARIANT MEDIA Fig. 4A

Abstract

The invention relates to methods, apparatus, machines and systems for simultaneous transmit and receive (STR) station (STA) transmissions by means of multiple links in one aspect, A media synchronization delay timer attached to the second STA link (not STR) can be initiated in response to the completion of the data transmission on the first link to delay the activation of the clear channel assessment (CCA) procedure attached to the second link. Data may be transmitted on the second link in response to the expiration of the media synchronization delay timer. From another perspective, the energy detect (ED) threshold on the second link can be lowered from the first ED threshold to the second ED threshold after data is transmitted on the first link.
