A method of frame exchange for a first communication device in a multi-radio system is disclosed. The method comprises configuring a time division duplex (TDD) operation in a first radio system and a second radio system, receiving a first frame for requesting a frame exchange, from a second communication device of the first radio system, and transmitting a second frame corresponding to the first frame, to the second communication device, wherein the second frame includes a field for indicating a reserve time for the frame exchange, and the reserve time is set to be aligned with a TDD operation time of the first radio system.

Method of frame exchange in multi-radio system

A wireless communication method includes: generating a first communication information according to a second communication information, wherein the first communication information is arranged to indicate a transmission capable period and a reception capable period of the device arranged to communicate with a peer in a first communication network, and the second communication information is arranged to indicate a transmission period and a reception period of the device for communicating in a second communication network which is different from the first communication network; and transmitting a first frame comprising the first communication information to the peer in the first communication network to initiate a first communication phase with the peer.

Wireless communication method and associated electronic device

A method of enhancing a transmission opportunity of a wireless device comprises sensing a wireless medium; determining an interframe space duration of the wireless device to be shorter when the wireless medium is busy; and transmitting a data frame of the wireless device after the wireless medium is idle for at least the interframe space duration. By shortening the interframe space duration, a transmission opportunity of using the wireless medium is enhanced.

Method of enhancing transmission opportunity and wireless device using the same

A method of period allocation for a medium to be utilized by a first wireless communication device comprising at least one wireless local area network (WLAN) module includes while the first wireless communication device occupies the medium, detecting a termination period of a Network Allocation Vector (NAV) of the medium; and the first wireless communication device extending the termination period of the NAV of the medium if the termination period of the NAV is earlier than an expected period.

Method of period allocation for medium and wireless communication system thereof

Communications apparatus includes first and second radio modules and an antenna array coupled to the first and the second radio modules and includes multiple antennas. When the first and the second radio modules operate at the same time, the first radio module negotiates with a first communications device an amount of antenna(s) to be used by a first message, so that the first radio module operates with the amount of the antenna(s) and second radio module operates with at least one of the remaining antenna(s).

Methods for managing radio resources between multiple radio modules and communications apparatus utilizing the same

A wireless communications system and associated method are disclosed. The system, in one configuration, includes an antenna and a wireless communications module configured to operate and communicate with a plurality of wireless communications stations via the antenna, in compliance with a wireless communications protocol. The communications include transmitting a first control packet to disable at least one of the wireless communications stations from data transmissions in compliance with the wireless communications protocol. The system is also configured to transmit a second control packet to enable at least one of the disabled wireless communications stations to perform the data transmissions. The first control packet is transmitted using a first configuration transmission power or modulation scheme, and the second control packet is transmitted using a second configuration transmission power and modulation scheme.

Systems and methods for providing categorized channel reservation

A method of sharing credential in a wireless communication system comprising a first user equipment, a second communication device and a network, includes transmitting a temporal credential and a credential custody request, from the first communication device, to the network; transmitting first custody information, by the network, to the first communication device; transmitting a credential acquiring request and second custody information, by the second communication device, to the network; and determining whether to transmit the temporal credential to the second communication device according to the second custody information.

Method of sharing credential and wireless communication system thereof

A method for estimating a location of an electronic device and an associated apparatus are provided, where the method includes the steps of: sending a pre-association broadcast request frame by the electronic device to multiple responders in a wireless network system; receiving a plurality of response frames corresponding to the pre-association broadcast request frame from the multiple responders; and performing a timing measurement according to information carried by the plurality of response frames for determining the location of the electronic device. For example, each of the response frames is sent from one of the responders, and each of the responders sends only one response frame corresponding to the pre-association broadcast request frame. As a result, the power consumption can be greatly decreased, and the related art problem of insufficiency of the total channel capacity of the wireless network system can be prevented.

Method for estimating a location of an electronic device with aid of information carried by responses corresponding to one broadcast request sent to multiple devices, and associated apparatus

A wireless communications system and method configured to operate and communicate with a plurality of wireless communications stations in compliance with a wireless communications protocol, wherein said communications comprise transmitting a first control packet to disable at least one of the wireless communications stations from data transmissions in compliance with the wireless communications protocol, and transmit a second control packet to enable at least one of the disabled wireless communications stations to perform the data transmissions. The first control packet is transmitted using a first configuration, and the second control packet is transmitted using a second configuration.

A wireless communications system for categorized channel reservation is provided with a first wireless communications module and a second wireless communications module. The first wireless communications module transmits or receives a plurality of first wireless signals. The second wireless communications module transmits a first control packet according to an activity schedule of the first wireless communications module to disable a plurality of wireless communications stations from data transmissions, and transmit a second control packet to enable a predetermined number of the wireless communications stations to perform the data transmissions.
