The hidden node problem can be avoided by scheduling stations in different sectors to perform transmissions during different time periods. Sectorized scheduling can be communicated to stations through transmission of beamformed beacon signals at the beginning of respective time periods. For instance, a first beamformed beacon signal may be transmitted to stations in a first sector at the beginning of a first time period, while a second beamformed beacon signal may be transmitted to stations in a second sector at the beginning of a second time period.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing therein a communication control program for causing a computer to execute processing includes, executing a prescribed command at a specified transmission cycle, acquiring a start time at which the execution is started and an end time at which the execution is ended, performing the execution and the acquisition while changing the transmission cycle, and specifying a transmission cycle at which an error between a difference between the end time and the start time and the specified transmission cycle is within a prescribed range.

Packet communications are received by a network node through a communication link from a separate network node within a wireless network. The network node can also be configured to transmit packet communications from the network node through the communication link to the separate network node. The network node generates composite LQI measurements for the received packet communications, and the composite LQI measurements are based upon signal strength measurements for the received packet communications and also based upon signal quality measurements for the received packet communications. The network node then adjusts the communication link based upon the composite LQI measurements.
