Airtime network policies for quarantined station network policies are stored in a database for application to quarantined stations. Quarantined stations are moved from a first VLAN to a quarantine VLAN with a dedicated BSSID on the Wi-Fi communication network. An RU airtime allocation module of the access point allocates airtime RUs for suppression of some or all transmissions from the quarantined stations. The airtime RU allocation module determines an amount of RUs for access to airtime on a Wi-Fi communications network, based on a network policy that limits an amount of airtime allowed by quarantined stations.

Apparatuses, methods, and systems for coordinated access to a wireless link through data profiles are disclosed. One method includes receiving through the wireless link, by each hub associated with a base station, one or more data profiles from a network management element, receiving, by each hub, data from data sources associated with the hub, controlling, by each hub, a timing of communication of the data for each of the data sources from the hub to the base station through the wireless satellite link based on the one or more data profiles, monitoring reporting times of different data sources of different hubs over time, allocating preamble codes to each of the data sources, wherein different preamble codes are allocated to different data sources of different hubs that report within a margin of time of each other, and inserting the allocated preamble codes into packets of each of the data sources.

The present technology relates to a wireless communication device and method, and a wireless communication terminal and method that enable a plurality of access points to efficiently collect receipt acknowledgments of data from respective communication terminals. The wireless communication device coordinately transmits, with one or more first other wireless communication devices, data addressed to the wireless communication terminals each including information indicating a transmission timing of a receipt acknowledgment of each of the plurality of wireless communication terminals. Furthermore, the wireless communication device receives the receipt acknowledgment from each of the wireless communication terminals after transmitting the data. The present technology can be applied to a wireless communication system.

A request processing method includes: determining, based on a request of a terminal, first network slice information of a current network slice accessed by the terminal, and acquiring second network slice information respectively corresponding to at least one subscribed network slice, the subscribed network slice being a network slice allowing access of the terminal; and determining whether there is a detection result of target second network slice information satisfying an access condition in the respective second network slice information, and controlling the current network slice based on the detection result.
