SYSTEM AND METHOD OF ACHIEVING FAIRNESS IN A MIXTURE OF FULL-DUPLEX AND HALF-DUPLEX NODES IN A WIRELESS NETWORK

摘要

In a system having a full-duplex node, a half-duplex node and an access point, modifying a parameter such as a backoff timing such that access probabilities are adjusted for at least one of the access point, the full-duplex node and the half-duplex node. Based on channel access achieved after modifying the backoff timing, communication occurs between one of the full-duplex node and a half-duplex node with the access point. The modified backoff timing can operate independently or in coordination with backoff timers from any other nodes within a system.
