20100081447 | DYNAMIC CHANNEL ALLOCATION - Embodiments of methods and apparatus for dynamic channel allocation are disclosed. In various embodiments, an access point (AP) of an infrastructure based wireless network may allocate one or more wireless channels to wireless devices of a non-infrastructure based wireless network. The allocated channels may be selected to reduce a likelihood of communications among the devices of the non-infrastructure based wireless network interfering with communications among the devices of the infrastructure based wireless network. Additional variants and embodiments may also be disclosed and claimed. | 04-01-2010 |
20100157971 | Power-efficient media access techniques for wireless networks - Techniques for media access in wireless networks are disclosed. For instance, embodiments may provide a time interval for accessing a wireless communications channel. In addition, embodiments may prevent channel access during the time interval by stations incapable of employing a first channel access technique. This access technique employs an access probability P. | 06-24-2010 |

20140334464 | APPARATUS, SYSTEM AND METHOD OF SETTING UP AN APPLICATION SERVICE PLATFORM (ASP) PEER TO PEER (P2P) GROUP - Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems and/or methods of setting up an Application Service Platform (ASP) Peer-to-Peer (P2P) persistent group. For example, an apparatus may include a first ASP to communicate with a second ASP to setup one or more ASP-P2P groups over a wireless communication link, the first ASP is to form each ASP-P2P group only as an ASP-P2P persistent group extendable over a plurality of distinct sessions, the first ASP is to store credentials of the ASP-P2P persistent group for use during the sessions. | 11-13-2014 |
20140351444 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENABLING SERVICE INTEROPERABILITY FUNCTIONALITY FOR WIFI DIRECT DEVICES CONNECTED TO A NETWORK VIA A WIRELESS ACCESS POINT - Certain embodiments herein are directed to enabling service interoperability functionality for wireless fidelity (WiFi) Direct devices connected to a network via a wireless access point. A WiFi Direct device may identify various other WiFi Direct devices on a WiFi network for performing a requested service, such as printing content or displaying content to a screen. In so doing, the device may share information associated with an access point to which the device is connected with the other devices, which may also share information associated with an access point to which they are connected. In this way, WiFi Direct devices may discover their connectivity with respect to other devices to utilize a broader array of connection options for implementing a desired service, and hence, may leverage application programming interface (API) modules directed at providing service interoperability functionality between software applications and services requested by the software applications. | 11-27-2014 |

20150163847 | TECHNIQUES FOR MANAGING THE TRANSFER OF A WIRELESS CONNECTION BETWEEN WIRELESS NETWORKS, CHANNELS OR BANDS - Techniques for managing the transfer of a wireless connection between wireless networks, channels or bands are described. In some embodiments a method may comprise receiving a request to transfer a wireless connection between the enabling device and a dependent device from a first wireless network to a second wireless network, determining that the dependent device can not initiate a connection in the second wireless network, rejecting the request, and initiating, by the enabling device, the transfer to the second wireless network. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 06-11-2015 |
