Abstract:
A procedure to establish a link in a directional wireless system where two nodes cannot listen to each other unless optimized beamforming pair is used and timing and framing synchronization is acquired. The procedure determines a set of beamforming pairs that the nodes can use for communication in addition to acquiring the framing and timing synchronization. Training packets are periodically transmitted by a transmitter while a receiver listens in each of a number of receive directions. Training packets are sent N times in N directions while a receiver listens in each of M receive directions until all N×M possible transmit and receive direction pair possibilities are tried. The receiver informs the transmitter which transmit and receive direction pairs were successful in creating communication links between the nodes.

Claim (Index 7):
A wireless network, comprising:\n an initiator node and a responder node, wherein one or more transmit and receive beamforming direction pairs between the initiator node and the responder node are identified within in the wireless communication network; the initiator node operative to transmit training packets for a number of times in a number of beamforming directions; the responder node operative to:\n try to asynchronously detect a training packet in a number of receive directions; \n detect a training packet and using synchronization information in the detected training packet to synchronize the responder node to the initiator node; and \n wherein the initiator node is further operative to:\n transmit training packets from the initiator node in each of a number of possible transmit beamforming directions once the responder node and the initiator node are synchronized; \n attempt to detect a training packet at the responder node in each of a number of possible receive beamforming directions; and \n provide feedback to the initiator node that indicates one or more transmit and receive beamforming direction pairs with which the responder node can detect a training packet
