Abstract
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.
