Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a system and method for sending and receiving Voice-over-Internet-Protocol over a wireless computer network utilizing a hybrid wireless Voice-over-Internet-Protocol telephone. The invention utilizes a phone controller, a wireless handset, a base station and at least one access point. The wireless handset is equipped with both a wireless personal area network transceiver and a wireless local area network transceiver. The base station is equipped with a wireless personal area network transceiver and a network interface card. Voice-over-Internet-Protocol packets are routed to a phone controller which forwards the packets to either an access point for transmission to the wireless handset over the wireless local area network, to a base station for transmission to the wireless handset over the personal area network, or to server for transmission out of the local area network.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a system and method for sending and receiving Voice-over-Internet-Protocol over a wireless computer network utilizing a hybrid wireless voice-over-Internet-Protocol telephone. The invention utilizes a phone controller (302), a wireless handset (100), a base station (310) and at least one access point (304). The wireless handset is equipped with both a wireless personal area network transceiver and a wireless local area network transceiver. The base station (310) is equipped with a wireless personal area network transceiver and a network interface card. Voice-over-Internet-Protocol packets are routed to the phone controller (302) which forwards the packets to either the access point (304) for transmission to the wireless handset (100) over the wireless local area network (306,304,316), to the base station (310) for transmission to the wireless handset (100) over the personal area network (314), or to a server for transmission out of the local area network. The wireless personal area network can be based upon Bluetooth or IrDA
Abstract:
A method for controlling cell size associated with an access point that has a receive sensitivity and an output power. The method includes changing a start of packet threshold and/or a clear channel assessment threshold to vary the cell size of the access point.

Abstract:
A method for controlling cell sizes (118a, ..., 118n) associated with respective access points (102a, ..., 102n), each having a receive sensitivity and an output power. The method includes changing the start of packet thresholds and/or clear channel assessment thresholds to vary the cell sizes (I 18a,...,118n) of the access points (102a, ..., 102n).
