WIRELESS DEVICE, METHOD, AND COMPUTER READABLE MEDIA FOR CHANNEL CONTENTION IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICES

摘要

Wireless device, method, and computer readable media for channel contention in wireless communication devices. The wireless communication device may include hardware processing circuitry configured to: determine to adapt the channel contention, and configured to adapt the channel contention settings by changing a level of a clear channel assessment (CCA) and adapting at least one additional channel contention setting. The hardware processing circuitry may be configured to adapt the channel contention settings by raising a level of the clear channel assessment (CCA) and by decreasing a power used to transmit, raising a back-off time, or modifying a portion of or parameter to a distributed coordination function (DCF). The hardware processing circuitry may be configured to adapt the channel contention settings by decreasing the clear channel assessment (CCA) and increasing a power used to transmit or decreasing an amount of time to wait after a CCA determines the channel is free.

主权项

1. A wireless communication device for adapting channel contention settings, the wireless communication device comprising hardware processing circuitry configured to:
determine whether to adapt channel contention settings; and in response to a determination to adapt the channel contention settings, adapt the channel contention settings to change a level of a clear channel assessment (CCA) and adapt at least one additional channel contention setting.
