Justia Patents US Patent for Method and system for controlling access to a wireless communication medium Patent (Patent # 10,447,386)
Feb 14, 2017 - InterDigital Technology Corporation
a transmitter configured to: broadcast a first beacon in a first beacon interval, wherein the first beacon includes an indication of whether a second beacon will be broadcasted by the IEEE 802.11 AP within the first beacon interval; and on a condition that the first beacon indicates that a second beacon will be broadcasted by the IEEE 802.11 AP within the first beacon interval, broadcast the second beacon in the first beacon interval, wherein the second beacon is broadcasted using a data rate that is different than the first beacon,
wherein the first beacon is an IEEE 802.11 legacy beacon and the second beacon is an IEEE 802.11 non-legacy beacon.
a receiver configured to: receive a first beacon in a first beacon interval, wherein the first beacon includes an indication of whether a second beacon is being broadcasted by an IEEE 802.11 access point (AP) within the first beacon interval; and on a condition that the first beacon indicates that a second beacon is being broadcasted by the IEEE 802.11 AP within the first beacon interval, receive the second beacon in the first beacon interval, wherein the second beacon is received at a data rate that is different than the first beacon,
on a condition that the first beacon indicates that a second beacon is being broadcasted by the IEEE 802.11 AP within the first beacon interval, receiving the second beacon in the first beacon interval, and wherein the second beacon is received at a data rate that is different than the first beacon,
