Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus and method for wideband short-range wireless communication using a directional antenna in a millimeter wave band, and the method for wideband short-range wireless communication according to an embodiment may determine a first time interval and a second time interval for a cooperated data frame transfer based on a packet transmission time at each transmission from a source node to a destination node, transmit a frame to a relay node through an antenna pattern directed towards the relay node at a start point of the first time interval, and transmit the frame to the destination node through an antenna pattern directed towards the destination node after a predetermined period of time from a start point of the second time interval.
Abstract:
A method of operating a network coordinator for a spatial reuse scheme includes receiving a reservation request for a time period for a data communication of a target transmitter/receiver pair that uses a directional antenna, searching for a time period reserved in advance for another transmitter/receiver pair, from a Channel Time Allocation Period (CTAP) that is a contention-free access period for the data communication, and reserving a time period for the target transmitter/receiver pair in the CTAP, so that the time period reserved for the target transmitter/receiver pair overlaps the time period reserved in advance for the other transmitter/receiver pair.
Abstract:
Provided is a communication method of a coordinator in a wireless networks system that uses a reservation-based media access control (MAC). The communication method includes receiving, from a source device, a frame that requests a reservation resource for a relay device, to enable a frame that the source device transmits to a destination device to be relayed via the relay device, and allocating the reservation resource for the relay device, in response to the request.
Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus and method for performing a wideband short-range wireless communication using a directional antenna in a millimeter wave band, and the method for wideband short-range wireless communication according to an embodiment may determine a change of a relay operation type based on a link quality between a source node and a relay node, a link quality between the relay node and the destination node, and a link quality between the source node and the destination node, transmit a relay operation change (ROC) request message in response to a determination of the change of the relay operation type, and receive an ROC response message corresponding to the ROC request message.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for reassembling a DOCSIS(Data-Over-Cable Service Interface Specifications) MAC(Media Access Control) frame in a cable modem having a plurality of receiving channels are provided to reassemble a DOCSIS MAC frame by extracting the DOCSIS MAC frame from MPEG2-TS packets. Downlink channel receiving modules(111,112) receive a RF signal, and outputs a MPEG2-TS packet signal. MAC frame reassembling buffer writing modules(121,122) store data to MAC frame reassembling buffers(141,142). MAC reassembling control modules(131,132) control a MPEG header and a point field. MAC frame reassembling butter reading modules(151,152) store one complete DOCSIS MAC frame to a MAC frame buffer. MAC frame buffer modules(161,162) store one complete DOCSIS MAC frame.
Abstract:
A communication method of a source device according to am embodiment includes detecting a status of a first link directly connected from the source device to a destination device or a status of a second link connected from the source device to the destination device via a relay device, selecting any one of the first link and the second link based on a result of the detection, and transmitting data using the selected link.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a wireless communication method used for transmitting and receiving a relay in a wireless local area network system. The wireless local area network system according to an embodiment of the present invention relates to a wireless communication method of setting a relay link through a relay and setting a transmission time point at which a data frame is transmitted in a source device by recognizing a propagation delay between devices, and the like when an operation mode of the set relay corresponds to a cooperating mode.
