Abstract
Performing distributed contention-free communication channel reservation for wireless communication, is disclosed. One implementation involves providing access to a shared communication channel in a wireless network including multiple wireless stations, by performing distributed channel time reservation for contention-free access to a shared wireless channel by each wireless station, based on a prior successful contention by the wireless station for access to the channel in a wireless network.
Claims39
A method for transmitting information in a wireless network including multiple wireless stations, the method comprising:
- transmitting information in the wireless network using distributed channel time reservation for contention-free access to a wireless channel by each wireless station, based on a prior successful contention by the wireless station for access to the channel in a wireless network.
A wireless station comprising:
- a receiver that receives information in a wireless network;
- and
- a channel access module that performs distributed channel time reservation for contention-free access to a shared wireless channel by the wireless station, based on a prior successful contention by the wireless station for access to the channel.
A wireless station, comprising:
- a transmitter that transmits information in a wireless network;
- and
- a channel access module that performs distributed channel time reservation for contention-free access to a wireless channel by the wireless station, based on a prior successful contention by the wireless station for access to the channel.
A method for receiving information in a wireless network including multiple wireless stations, the method comprising:
- receiving information in the wireless network using distributed channel time reservation for contention-free access to a wireless channel by each wireless station, based on a prior successful contention by the wireless station for access to the channel in the wireless network.
A computer program product for transmitting information in a wireless network including multiple wireless stations, the computer program product comprising:
- a non-transitory computer useable medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, wherein the computer readable program when executed on the computer causes the computer to:
- transmit information in the wireless network using distributed channel time reservation for contention-free access to a wireless channel by each wireless station, based on a prior successful contention by the wireless station for access to the channel in the wireless network.
A computer program product for receiving information in a wireless network including multiple wireless stations, the computer program product comprising:
- a non-transitory computer useable medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, wherein the computer readable program when executed on the computer causes the computer to:
- receive information in the wireless network using distributed channel time reservation for contention-free access to a wireless channel by each wireless station, based on a prior successful contention by the wireless station for access to the channel in the wireless network.
