Claim Text:
1. A method comprising: transmitting, from a first node to a second node, a first frame having a first frame size; receiving, at the first node, and from the second node, a second frame having a second frame size, to yield a received second frame, wherein the transmitting and receiving comprise full-duplex communication in a common frequency channel between the first node and the second node; determining a window size which governs when the first node transmits a first acknowledgement of the received second frame and when the second node transmits a second acknowledgement of receipt of the first frame, the window size being determined based on one of a protocol, a negotiation between the first node and the second node, the first frame size, the second frame size, and auto-tuning, and wherein the window size allows for non-simultaneous transmissions of acknowledgments in full-duplex in the common frequency channel; and after receiving the received second frame and according to the window size, transmitting the first acknowledgment of the second frame to the second node in full-duplex in the common frequency channel while receiving data in the common frequency channel.
