US 12,615,653 B2 · Communication device, control method, and storage medium

Abstract

A communication device performs, based on a frequency resource that is to be allocated to communication of a first other communication device in accordance with a first communication standard, frequency resource allocation for communication of a second other communication device that conforms to a second communication standard. In the frequency resource allocation, in a case where the first other communication device and the second other communication device concurrently communicate with the communication device, a distribution of a first frequency resource to be allocated for communication using the first communication standard and a second frequency resource to be allocated for communication using the second communication standard in an available frequency band is determined, and a frequency resource included in the second frequency resource is allocated to the second other communication device.

Dependent claims

A communication device comprising:

one or more processors;
and
one or more memories that store computer-readable instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
in a case where one or more first partner communication devices using a first communication standard and one or more second partner communication devices using a second communication standard communicate with the communication device in parallel,
determine, based on a number of the one or more first partner communication devices and a number of the one or more second partner communication devices, a distribution of a first resource unit (RU) to be allocated for communication using a first correlation table representing a correspondence between a RU index and RU subcarrier numbers in accordance with the first communication standard and a second RU to be allocated for communication using a second correlation table representing a correspondence between a RU index and RU subcarrier numbers in accordance with the second communication standard in a same frequency band, and
allocate the second RU to the one or more second partner communication devices.

3 more elements

A control method to be executed by a communication device, the method comprising:

in a case where one or more first partner communication devices using a first communication standard and one or more second partner communication devices using a second communication standard communicate with the communication device in parallel,
determining, based on a number of the one or more first partner communication devices and a number of the one or more second partner communication devices, a distribution of a first resource unit (RU) to be allocated for communication using a first correlation table representing a correspondence between a RU index and RU subcarrier numbers in accordance with the first communication standard and a second RU to be allocated for communication using a second correlation table representing a correspondence between a RU index and RU subcarrier numbers in accordance with the second communication standard in a same frequency band, and
allocating, the second RU to the one or more second partner communication devices.
