The present invention relates to a wireless communication terminal and a wireless communication method for efficiently scheduling uplink multi-user transmission. To this end, provided are a base wireless communication terminal, including: a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a wireless signal; and a processor configured to control an operation of the transceiver, wherein the processor selects an access category for transmitting a trigger frame which solicits an uplink multi-user transmission, performs a backoff procedure for transmitting the trigger frame based on the selected access category, and transmits the trigger frame when a backoff counter of the backoff procedure expires and a wireless communication method using the same.

A controller of a network, including routers to forward flows of packets originated at senders to receivers along distinct network paths each including multiple links, such that the flows merge at a common link that imposes a traffic bottleneck on the flows, receives from one or more of the routers router reports that each indicate an aggregate packet loss that represents an aggregate of packet losses experienced by each of the flows at the common link. The controller sends to the senders aggregate loss reports each including the aggregate packet loss so that the senders have common packet loss information for the common link on which to base decisions as to whether to switch from delay-based to loss-based congestion control modes when implementing dual-mode congestion control of the flows. In lieu of the controller, another example employs in-band router messages populated with packet losses by the routers the messages traverse.

Described herein include systems, methods, and apparatuses for the scheduling of data over a network (e.g., a wired or wireless network). A scheduler may be configured to receive a portion of packets at a receiving buffer and classify the packets into real time packets or non-real time packets using associated first and second queues. Further, a first re-transmission component may receive the real time packets from the first queue, and a second re-transmission component may receive the non-real time packets from the second queue. The real time packets may be received, by a transmission component, from the first re-transmission component; the transmission component may also receive non-real time packets from the second re-transmission component. The scheduler may then transmit at least one real time packet or non-real time packet to another device over a network using any suitable scheduling algorithm.

In one embodiment, a method includes: obtaining a multi-protocol schedule, wherein the multi-protocol schedule includes scheduling information characterizing packets associated with a plurality of wireless protocols, wherein each of the plurality of wireless protocols is associated with a respective virtual gateway of a plurality of virtual gateways; detecting, by a wireless transceiver, a first packet related to a first wireless protocol of the plurality of wireless protocols based on the multi-protocol schedule; and transmitting, by the wireless transceiver, the first packet related to the first wireless protocol to a first virtual gateway of the plurality of virtual gateways. According to some embodiments, the method is performed by a device (e.g., a MAC preprocessor) that includes a wireless transceiver, one or more processors, and non-transitory memory.

The method comprises the steps of: a) providing a plurality of memory buffers, associated to respective indexes of priority, each buffer comprising one queue of frames having a same index of priority, b) sorting the received frames in a chosen buffer according to their index of priority, c) in each buffer, sorting the frames according to their respective timestamps, for ordering the queue of frames in each buffer from the earliest received frame on top of the queue to the latest received frame at the bottom of the queue, and d) feeding the transmitting ports with each frame or block of frame to transmit, in an order determined according to the index of priority of the frame, as well as an order of the frame or of the block of frame in the queue associated to the index of priority of the frame.
