Abstract:
A third device stores a receive signal strength of a received response data unit transmitted by a second device after receiving a first data unit transmitted by a first device. The third device obtains a clear channel access parameter included in a header of a second data unit transmitted by the first device to the second device and detects transmission exchanges in each of a plurality of service sets to use as samples of overlapping service set activity. The third device determines a minimum transmit power to be used by the third device to send a transmission to the fourth device based on transmission exchanges between devices in a particular service set. The third device determines whether to send a transmission to the fourth device based on the clear channel access parameter and minimum transmit power.

Claim (Index 1):
In a wireless network environment that includes first and second devices that are part of a first service set and third and fourth devices that are part of a second service set, and the third and fourth devices being in sufficient proximity to the first and second devices to receive transmissions sent between the first and second devices, a method comprising:\n storing at the third device a receive signal strength of a received response data unit transmitted by the second device in response to reception by the second device of a first data unit transmitted by the first device; obtaining a clear channel access parameter included in a header of a second data unit transmitted by the first device to the second device; detecting transmission exchanges in each of a plurality of service sets for use as samples of overlapping service set activity in the wireless network environment; determining a minimum transmit power to be used by the third device, with respect to a particular subset of the plurality of service sets, based on the transmission exchanges between devices in the particular subset of the plurality of service sets; and determining whether to send a transmission from the third device to the fourth device based on a comparison of the clear channel access parameter with a sum of the minimum transmit power to be used by the third device for transmission to the fourth device and the receive signal strength of the received response data unit.
