    Abstract: A host controller for a distributed wireless local area network (WLAN) includes: a communications interface connected to each of a set of wireless access points (APs); a memory storing (i) identifiers of each of the wireless access points, and (ii) a master identifier of the host controller; and a processor configured to: receive a notification, from a first one of the APs, that the first AP has completed an association with a client device; in response to receiving the notification: deploy association data, including an identifier of the client device, to each of the APs; initiate a handshake mechanism with the client device, via a selected one of the APs, to generate an encryption key; and provide the encryption key to each or the APs to enable data exchange between the client device and each of the APs.

    Abstract: A wireless communications assembly and method for encoding and modulating data for transmission is provided. The method includes receiving primary data to be transmitted to a receiving station; selecting a data rate at which to transmit the primary data; selecting a mode associated with the data rate, the mode defining a modulation scheme and a target code rate; generating encoded data, including modifying an error correcting block format having a predefined code rate to generate the encoded data at the target code rate; and extracting at least a portion of the encoded data for modulation of a carrier signal and transmission to a receiving station.
