Abstract
A proximity communication method and apparatus using a link adaptation. A transmitter establishes a link that is configured using a channel aggregation by performing an association with a receiver, and performs a link adaptation that changes the channel aggregation with respect to the link in response to transmitting data to the receiver using the link.
Claims20
A proximity communication method by a transmitter, the method comprising:
- transmitting a beacon frame to a receiver using a default channel;
- and
- establishing a link that is configured using a channel aggregation by performing an association with the receiver in response to receiving an association request signal from the receiver.
A proximity communication method by a transmitter, the method comprising:
- establishing a link that is configured using a channel aggregation by performing an association with a receiver;
- and
- performing a link adaptation that changes the channel aggregation with respect to the link in response to transmitting data to the receiver using the link.
A proximity communication apparatus comprising:
- at least one processor,
- wherein the processor is configured to generate a link that is configured using a channel aggregation by performing an association with a receiver, and to perform a link adaptation that changes the channel aggregation with respect to the link in response to transmitting data to the receiver using the link.
