Wireless Network Station Carrier Method Notification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In wireless networks, the use of different carrier transmission methods by stations makes it difficult for the wireless network coordinator to efficiently manage the network, especially when transmitting high-frequency data, such as multimedia content.
Innovation Solution
Each wireless network station notifies the coordinator of its carrier transmission method, allowing the coordinator to manage network resources effectively by generating and transmitting a request command and network management frame, utilizing millimeter wave technology and methods like OFDM for efficient data transmission.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If wireless network stations use different carrier transmission methods, then data transmission capability is improved, but network management difficulty increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by having stations transmit their carrier transmission method information to the coordinator before actual data transmission occurs. The coordinator receives and stores this information in advance, enabling efficient network management without requiring real-time complex negotiations during data transmission.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms where stations provide information about their carrier transmission methods to the coordinator, and the coordinator responds with network management decisions. This feedback loop enables the coordinator to manage network resources effectively while stations maintain their preferred transmission methods.
2Device complexity
If the coordinator manages network resources without knowing carrier transmission methods, then device complexity is reduced, but data transmission efficiency deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The coordinator performs preliminary actions by receiving and storing carrier transmission method information from stations before data transmission begins. This advance information gathering allows the coordinator to simplify its management process while maintaining high data transmission efficiency through pre-planned resource allocation.
3Speed
If high-frequency band data transmission is enabled, then data transmission rate is improved, but network management challenge increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies preliminary action by having stations notify the coordinator of their carrier transmission methods before high-frequency data transmission begins. This advance notification enables the coordinator to manage high-frequency band resources efficiently without increasing operational complexity during actual transmission.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements feedback where stations provide carrier transmission method information to the coordinator, enabling the coordinator to optimize high-frequency band allocation and management while maintaining simple and efficient network control mechanisms.
