Patent ID: 11877318

Abstract:
A device configured to communicate via a Wi-Fi channel obtains a contention-free access period on the Wi-Fi channel. The device sends a first probe packet to a receiving Wi-Fi device during the contention-free access period, with at least one parameter of a Wi-Fi transmitter of the Wi-Fi transceiver set to a first setting, and waits for a first reply period. The device sends a second probe packet to the receiving Wi-Fi device during the contention-free access period, with the at least one parameter of the Wi-Fi transmitter set to a second setting, where the second setting is based on a result of the first reply period, and waits for a second reply period. The device sets the at least one parameter of the Wi-Fi transmitter to a data packet setting, where the data packet setting is based at least on a result of the second reply period.
