Abstract:
Time division multiple access (TDMA) media access control (MAC) adapted for single user, multiple user, multiple access, and/or MIMO wireless communications. Various com systems may include smart meter stations (SMSTAs) and/or wireless stations (STAs). Appropriate coordination is made with respect to such communication devices to ensure appropriate uplink (and/or downlink) communications between a network manager or coordinator (e.g., an access point (AP)) and the SMSTAs and/or STAs. With respect to SMSTAs, the relative duration of time that such communication devices are awake and operative versus asleep (or in a reduced power and/or functionality state) can be significant. Certain implementations may include a relatively large number of such communication devices (e.g., 10s, 100s, 1000s, or more), and appropriate coordination and scheduling of such communications to/from them is made using one or more variations of TDMA signaling (e.g., including different respective service periods (SPs), communication medium access operational modes, adaptation thereof, etc.).

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 14  further comprising:\n generating or acquiring sensing or measurement data that is associated with the wireless communication device based on the first time specified within the announcement or assignment frame; and \n awakening from the power savings mode to the operational mode and transmit, via the communication interface, the sensing or measurement data that is associated with the wireless communication device to the first other wireless communication device after awakening from the power savings mode to the operational mode based on the first time specified within the announcement or assignment frame.
