SCHEDULING WITH REVERSE DIRECTION TRANSMISSION GRANT IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC H04L12/28 

FIELD: radio engineering, communication.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to wireless communication engineering and can be used to grant reverse direction transmission. The method of scheduling with reverse direction transmission grant comprises receiving, in a receiver from a transmitter, a multi-poll frame that schedules transmissions for a number of time periods associated with transmission opportunities; transmitting data in a first direction from the receiver to said transmitter according to the multi-poll frame, wherein data transmission is terminated before the end of a specific period from the scheduled time periods; transmitting a reverse direction transmission grant from the receiver to said transmitter, wherein the reverse direction transmission grant allows the transmitter to transmit data in a second direction to the receiver using a specific period from the scheduled time periods associated with a specific transmission opportunity; and receiving, in the receiver, data transmitted in a second direction from said transmitter, which schedules transmissions during a specific time period from the scheduled time periods associated with a specific transmission opportunity.

EFFECT: high efficiency of using communication channel bandwidth when communicating with scheduled time periods which grant specific stations access to the channel.
