20100272043 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING RANGING CHANNEL IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - A method and apparatus for transmitting a ranging channel in a wireless communication system is provided. A mobile station (MS) receives frequency resource allocation information of a ranging channel and allocates the ranging channel to one ranging subband on a frequency domain determined based on the frequency resource allocation information of the ranging channel. The MS transmits the ranging channel. The frequency resource allocation information of the ranging channel includes a cell identifier (ID) of a cell and the number of allocated subbands or the number of allocated subband contiguous resource units (CRUs). | 10-28-2010 |
20140099971 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MEASURING LOCATION OF USER EQUIPMENT LOCATED INDOORS IN WIRELESS NETWORK - A method of measuring a location of a user equipment (UE) located indoors in a wireless network includes receiving signals from a plurality of access points (APs), performing training for machine learning using the received signals or information acquired from the received signals, setting a weight vector to be applied to a relevance vector machine (RVM) method using data subjected to the training for machine learning, and applying RVM regression to the set weight vector and measured strengths of the received signals and determining whether the signals received from the plurality of APs are line of sight (LOS) signals or non line of sight (NLOS) signals. | 04-10-2014 |
20150208330 | SCANNING METHOD AND APPARATUS IN WIRELESS LAN - A scanning method and apparatus in wireless LAN is disclosed. The method comprises determining, by an access point (AP), whether to accommodate a station (STA) conducting an initial link setup and transmitting, by the AP, a frame to the STA, the frame including scanning redirection information for the STA to switch other channel, other band, or a neighbor AP when the AP determines not to accommodate the STA. The scanning redirection information includes a band field and a channel field. The band field indicating a band in which the STA conducts the initial link setup when the STA conducts the initial link setup from current band to the other band. The channel field indicating a channel in which the STA conducts the initial link setup when the STA conducts the initial link setup from current channel to the other channel. | 07-23-2015 |
20150230093 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ACCESSING INITIAL CHANNEL IN WIRELESS LAN - A method for accessing an initial channel by a STA can comprise the steps of: the STA receiving, via a first band from a multiband AP, a scanning frame comprising a neighboring AP information element, wherein the neighboring AP information element comprises information for a second band which is an operating band for the neighboring AP; the STA determining whether accessing the neighboring AP is possible on the basis of information comprised in the neighboring AP information element regarding an access network type of the neighboring AP operating in the second band; if access to the neighboring AP is possible, the STA transmitting an association request frame to the neighboring AP via the second band, wherein the access network type can comprise information regarding an access permission type of a neighboring AP. | 08-13-2015 |
20150237568 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING BACKHAUL LINK INFORMATION - Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for transmitting backhaul link information. A method for acquiring backhaul link state information for a station (STA) may comprise the steps of: an STA transmitting, to an access point (AP), a generic advertisement service (GAS) request frame requesting a backhaul link state information of the AP; the STA receiving, as a response to the GAS request frame, a GAS response frame comprising backhaul link state information, wherein the GAS request frame is a frame transmitted by an STA, before an authentication or an association procedure and after a scanning procedure of the AP, to request availability-related information of a network to be accessed by the STA, and the backhaul link state information can comprise information regarding the load of a backhaul link linking network apparatuses other the AP and the STA. | 08-20-2015 |
20150245283 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ACTIVE SCANNING IN WIRELESS LAN - Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for active scanning in a WLAN. In the method for active scanning in the WLAN, a scanning STA, which has received from a different STA a first probe request frame, can start a probe timer and perform a CCA for detecting a channel state of a receiving channel. When the channel state is not busy until the probe timer reaches a minimum channel time, the scanning STA transmits to an AP from the receiving channel a second probe request frame, and when the channel state is busy until the probe timer reaches the minimum channel time and the scanning STA does not receive a probe reply frame, which includes at least the same information expected to be received based on scanning information, the scanning STA can transmit to the AP from the receiving channel the second probe request frame. | 08-27-2015 |
20150245382 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ACCESSING CHANNEL IN WIRELESS LAN - Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for accessing a channel in a wireless LAN. A method for a station (STA) accessing a channel may comprise: a step of the STA receiving an access distribution element through a passive scanning frame; the STA selecting an access random variable based on the access distribution element; a step of the STA determining a minimum value of a passive scanning-specific competition window based on the access random variable; and the STA accessing the channel based on a backoff time that is determined based on the passive scanning-specific competition window. | 08-27-2015 |
20150341961 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CHANNEL ACCESS IN WIRELESS LAN SYSTEM - The present invention relates to a wireless communication system and, more particularly, to a method and apparatus for channel access in a wireless LAN system. To perform the abovementioned technical task, the method for performing channel access by a station (STA) in a wireless LAN system, according to one embodiment of the present invention, may comprise the steps of: deferring, if the channel is in an idle state, the transmission of a first frame until a second frame is detected from another station; and transmitting the first frame when the second frame is detected. | 11-26-2015 |
