20180007598 · 2018-01-04 ·

The disclosure is related to a method and a system for selecting a communication interface. The method is applicable to a local area network including multiple access points. A main access point is first selected. The main access point acquires every access point's information within a local area network. The information relates to the access points that are in an idle state or not performing a critical task. A target antenna can be selected for performing a specific function. For example, the target antenna can be used to scan for the channels specified in dynamic frequency selection. After that, the scan result may result in changing channels. Through the above mechanism, the resources in every AP within the LAN can be adequately used, and the performance of wireless communication can be effectively improved.

Multicast aided cooperative beamforming wireless system

A cooperative wireless system using a multicast protocol to facilitate coordinating coherent addition and subtraction of wireless signaling or other beams originating from a plurality of antenna units at a target location is contemplated. The system may utilize multicast-based regulation and distribution of transmission control parameters necessary for the antenna units to synchronize the wireless signaling in a manner sufficient to enable the coherent addition and subtraction thereof at the target location.

A transmit and receive point and a UE for implementing the operations are also disclosed.

Techniques for delay reduction and power optimization using a set of antenna modules

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) are described. A UE may establish a wireless connection with a primary cell and may identify a set of antenna modules of the UE and multiple sets of receive beams. Each set of receive beams may include at least one beam from each antenna module. The UE may perform a measurement procedure on signals received from one or more candidate secondary cells using at least a first set of receive beams. The UE may then transmit, to the primary cell, a measurement report based on performing the measurement procedure upon determining that at least one of the multiple sets of receive beams satisfies a threshold value and before performing the measurement procedure on signals received from the one or more candidate secondary cells using at least one remaining set of receive beams.
