Abstract
A method of transmitting mesh backhaul data in a WiFi network comprises transmitting the mesh backhaul data between a root node and a first intervening mesh access point via a wireless communication in a first frequency band and transmitting the mesh backhaul data between the first mesh access point and a second mesh access point via a wireless communication in a second frequency band.
Claims21
A method of transmitting mesh backhaul data in a WiFi network, the method comprising:
- transmitting the mesh backhaul data between a root node and a first intervening mesh access point via a wireless communication in a first frequency band;
- and
- transmitting the mesh backhaul data between the first intervening mesh access point and a second mesh access point via a wireless communication in a second frequency band.
A method of operating an access point, the method, comprising:
- enabling a first wireless local area network for mesh downlink traffic, where the first wireless local area network supports wireless communication in a first frequency band;
- enabling a second wireless local area network for mesh downlink traffic, where the second wireless local area network supports wireless communication in a second frequency band that is different from the first frequency band;
- receiving downlink mesh backhaul data over the first wireless local area network;
- and
- transmitting the downlink mesh backhaul data over the second wireless area network.
2 more elements
An access point, comprising:
- at least one antenna;
- and
- an interface circuit, coupled to the at least one antenna, the interface circuit configured to:
- enable a first wireless local area network in a first frequency band for mesh backhaul data;
- enable a second wireless local area network in a second frequency band for mesh backhaul data;
- receive mesh backhaul data on the first wireless local area network;
- and
- transmit the mesh backhaul data on the second wireless local area network.
