Dynamic slot allocation (DSA) in indoor SDMA/TDMA using a smart antenna basestation
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that significant increases in system capacity are possible using DSA in the indoor situations that were tested and suggested that dynamic slot allocation is possible at the frequency considered, provided turnaround times are in the low-to-mid tens of milliseconds.

Wlan-to-wwan handover methods and apparatus using a wlan support node having a wwan interface
TL;DR: In this paper, a network support node which is utilized to facilitate such transitioning has a first communication interface (e.g. an Ethernet interface) for connection with a communication network which includes the WLAN and a second communication interface for communicating with a base station of the WWAN over a wireless communication link.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy Aware Offloading for Competing Users on a Shared Communication Channel
TL;DR: The paper shows that for a wide range of parameters, a game where each user independently sets its offloading decisions always has a pure Nash equilibrium, and a Gauss-Seidel-like method for determining this equilibrium is introduced.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Handoff trigger nodes for hybrid IEEE 802.11 WLAN/cellular networks
TL;DR: Results are presented which show that the call dropping probability can be dramatically reduced by the use of a handoff trigger node.
Journal ArticleDOI
Power saving access points for IEEE 802-11 wireless network infrastructure
TL;DR: The protocols required to achieve backward compatible IEEE 802.11 functionality and existing wired access points are introduced, the constraints imposed by this restriction are shown, and performance results for the proposed system are presented.
