Abstract
Implementations disclosed describe systems and methods to optimize allocation of wireless subcarriers to station devices in wireless networks. In an example implementation, the disclosed techniques may include determining, by a station device in a wireless network, that a current set of wireless subcarriers, allocated by an access point device of the wireless network for the station device, is to be changed, generating, by the station device, a feedback information characterizing a current state of one or more of the wireless subcarriers, and sending, by the station device, the feedback information to the access point device.
Claims24
A method comprising:
- determining, by a station device in a wireless network, that a current set of wireless subcarriers, allocated by an access point device of the wireless network for the station device, is to be changed;
- generating, by the station device, a feedback information characterizing a current state of one or more of the wireless subcarriers;
- and
- sending, by the station device, the feedback information to the access point device.
An apparatus comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processing device coupled to the memory, the processing device configured to:
- determine that a current set of wireless subcarriers, allocated by an access point device of a wireless network to a station device, is to be changed;
- generate a feedback information characterizing a current state of one or more of the wireless subcarriers;
- and
- send the feedback information to the access point device.
A system comprising:
- one or more antennas;
- and
- a wireless network controller coupled to the one or more antennas, wherein the wireless network controller is to:
- determine that a current set of wireless subcarriers, allocated by an access point device of the wireless network to a station device, is to be changed;
- generate a feedback information characterizing a current state of one or more of the wireless subcarriers;
- and
- send the feedback information to the access point device.
A method comprising:
- receiving, from a station device, by an access point device in a wireless network, a request to change a current allocation of wireless subcarriers for the station device, the request comprising a feedback information characterizing a current state of one or more of the wireless subcarriers;
- changing, based on the feedback information, the current allocation of the wireless subcarriers for the station device to a new allocation of the wireless subcarriers for the station device, wherein at least one of the wireless subcarriers in the new set is different from each of the wireless subcarriers of the current set.
