Abstract:
A method of reducing tunneling in a wireless packet network. The method includes defining a home access point for a client station, determining that the client station is being serviced by an access point different from the home access point, deciding if the client station should change its home access point to the access point from which the client station receives service and initiating a change of the home access point of the client station, if so decided.
Abstract:
A method for preventing co-channel operation with a radar system includes the steps of setting a state of a first communication channel to active, connecting to a first wireless access point on the first communication channel, passively scanning at least a second communication channel for communication from a second wireless access point, setting a state of the second channel to active if frames are received on the second channel, determining whether an elapsed time since frames were received on at least one of the first channel and the second channel has exceed a predefined value, and in response to the predefined value being exceeded for at least one of the first channel and the second channel, setting the state of a corresponding one of the first channel and the second channel to passive.

Abstract:
A receiver that receives a stream of information symbols may detect the usability of the stream of information symbols received as follows. Upon receiving the stream of information symbols, the receiver separates the stream of information symbols into a desired portion and an undesired portion wherein the desired portion is the originally transmitted stream of information symbols and the undesired portion is interference and noise. From the undesired portion and the desired portion, the usability can be determined based on a ratio of the two portions.

Abstract:
A system and method switches between an active call and a call on hold when handing off a mobile station (204) from a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) (202). A Handover Starting message is received from a mobile station. The Handover Starting message includes at least one first identifier. A Notification message is also received. The Notification message includes a second identifier. The at least one first identifier is compared to the second identifier and a handover of the mobile station (204) proceeds when a match is determined. Subsequently, the mobile station (204) switches from an active call to a call on hold.
Abstract:
A receiver may reduce the effects of distortion when determining signal usability in the following manner. Upon receiving a signal, the receiver separates a desired component, an undesired component, and a distortion component, wherein the desired component includes the signal that was originally transmitted and the undesired component includes interference and noise. Having isolated the distortion component, it can be mitigated such that the usability of the signal received can be determined based on a ratio between the desired and undesired components.
