Patent ID: 11903017
Assignee: QUALCOMM INCORPORATED
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 17:
18. A wireless communication device, comprising:
a processing system that includes one or more processors and one or more memories coupled with the one or more processors, the processing system configured to cause the wireless communication device to:
activate an application associated with a first classification of first data traffic;
obtain a beacon frame carrying information indicating a set of time or frequency resources associated with second data traffic having the first classification;
output a data session request to a root access point (AP) responsive to activating the application, the data session request indicating traffic pattern information associated with the first data traffic having the first classification and preferred time or frequency resources associated with the first data traffic having the first classification,
wherein the preferred time or frequency resources include one or more preferred channels to carry the first data traffic or one or more preferred times to exchange the first data traffic, or both, and are orthogonal to the set of time or frequency resources associated with the second data traffic, and wherein:
the one or more preferred channels are associated with a channel scan performed by the wireless communication device that indicates that the one or more preferred channels are associated with lower channel utilization levels than other channels associated with higher channel utilization levels; and
the one or more preferred times are associated with a target wake time (TWT) schedule;

obtain link configuration information from the root AP responsive to the data session request, the link configuration information indicating a first set of time or frequency resources reserved for the first data traffic; and
establish a data path with the root AP associated with the first set of time or frequency resources, the data path being reserved for the first data traffic.
