SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR LOW-OVERHEAD WIRELESS BEACONS HAVING NEXT FULL BEACON INDICATIONS Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC H04W28/06 

FIELD: radio engineering, communication.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to communication engineering and can be used in wireless communication systems. Systems, methods, and devices for transmitting a compressed beacon are described. In some aspects, a method of communicating in a wireless network includes generating a compressed beacon. The compressed beacon includes a next full beacon time indication (NFBTI). The method further includes transmitting, at an access point, the compressed beacon.

EFFECT: high transmission throughput.
