Abstract:
Logic may coordinate communications of different types of wireless communications devices such as high power and low power wireless communications devices. Logic may coordinate communications by assigning time slots to a low power station (LP-STA) in a management frame such as a beacon transmitted by an access point (AP) associated with the LP-STA. Logic of the high power stations (HP-STAs) may receive the beacon and shepard logic of the HP-STA may defer transmissions by the HP-STA throughout the duration(s) indicated in the beacon from the AP. Logic of the LP-STA may comprise carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance logic to determine when to transmit a communication. Shepard logic of an HP-STA may detect the communication from the LP-STA and defer transmission of communication during a time duration for the communication by the LP-STA.

Claim (Index 10):
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, configure the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:\n determining a time duration indicative of time allocated for a first device to communicate with a wireless access point device, and during which time a second device is restricted from communicating with the wireless access point device, wherein the time duration is further indicative of a duration of a time slot allocated to the first type of device; determining a periodicity of the time duration; generating generate a beacon frame including an indication of the periodicity, and an indication of the second device for which the time duration is reserved for communication with the wireless access point device, wherein the beacon frame includes information indicative of the time duration of the time slot, the periodicity of the time slot, and a device identifier; and causing to send the beacon frame.
