    Abstract: An apparatus and a method for improving packet transmission and reducing latency in VOIP over using switched beam antennas having multiple directional antenna beams are disclosed. In an access point (200) having a switched beam antenna (220A and 220B), or other smart antenna system, the present invention extends the coverage area of an access point for authentication and association of a new WTRU (205), extends the access points (200) coverage area during in session transmissions with a WTRU, and adjusts data rates. The method also controls Contention Period (Cpl/contention Free Period (CFP) timing amongst beams emanating from an access point (200) having a switched beam antenna, or other smart antenna system. Fast diversity switching, frame level switching, lowered data rates, and scanning multiple directional antenna beams for the optimum transmission beam are disclosed to improve beam selection and packet transmission.

    Abstract: An access point operates in an 802.11 wireless communication network communicating with a client station, and includes a smart antenna for generating directional antenna beams and an omni-directional antenna beam. An antenna steering algorithm scans the directional antenna beams and the omni-directional antenna beam for receiving signals from the client station. The signals received via each scanned antenna beam are measured, and one of the antenna beams is selected based upon the measuring for communicating with the client station. The selected antenna beam is preferably a directional antenna beam. Once the directional antenna beam has been selected, there are several usage rules for exchanging data with the client station. The usage rules are directed to an active state of the access point, which includes a data transmission mode and a data reception mode.
