APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR WIRELESS NETWORK RELAY

摘要

A wireless relay device and a method thereof are provided to expand a wireless communication area between a host and devices by relaying packets, when the packets are transceived between the host and the devices under a wireless USB(Universal Serial Bus) environment. A management packet analyzer(860) analyzes management packets received as including information on a direction of data transmission and channel time allocation information from a wireless USB host. A response packet analyzer(810) analyzes response packets received as responses for the management packets from wireless USB devices. A controller(840) controls the flow of data transmitted between the wireless USB host and the wireless USB devices, by referring to the analyzed management packets and response packets. A transceiver(830) transmits or receives the management packets, the response packets or data in accordance with the controlled results.
