Patent ID: 8259661

Claim:
A method comprising: in a wireless network comprising a first device and a second device, the first device adapted to transmit a first wireless signal using an 802.11 access protocol, the second device adapted to transmit a second wireless signal using a HIPERLAN/2 access protocol: defining a super frame comprising: a contention free phase for 802.11 transmissions; a HIPERLAN/2 phase for HIPERLAN/2 transmission; and a contention phase for 802.11 transmissions, the contention phase started by a CF_End management frame adapted to reset an 802.11 network allocation vector; transmitting the super frame; assembling a spoofing frame from an RTS frame transmitted by an access point associated with the 802.11 access protocol, followed by a CTS frame transmitted by the first device; and ending the contention free phase by transmitting the spoofing frame.
