Abstract
Provided is a communication method and apparatus using a multi-radio. The communication method includes establishing a link via at least one node included in a group that uses a low data-rate radio (LDR); transmitting a data frame to the at least one node included in the group; and receiving, using a multi-radio based on an availability of the LDR, an acknowledgement (ACK) with respect to the transmitted data frame.
Claims27
A communication method comprising:
- establishing a link via at least one node included in a group that uses a low data-rate radio (LDR);
- transmitting a data frame to the at least one node included in the group;
- and
- receiving, using a multi-radio based on an availability of the LDR, an acknowledgement (ACK) with respect to the transmitted data frame.

A communication apparatus comprising:
- a link establishing unit configured to establish a link with at least one node included in a group that uses a low data-rate radio (LDR);
- a data frame transmitting unit configured to transmit a data frame to the at least one node included in the group;
- and
- an acknowledgement (ACK) receiving unit configured to receive, using a multi-radio based on an availability of the LDR, an ACK with respect to the transmitted data frame.
