For each channel (as scanning institute's example at the parameter of carrying out), wlan device will mail to the frame of this wlan device to the frame that connected AP (for example, the AP1 in Fig. 1 example) transmission power management bit is set in order to notify this AP buffer memory.Then this equipment begins the active direct scan (scanning process also promptly) of every next channel.When finishing at the scanning process of this channel, it can stop caching frame wlan device notice AP, and will mail to AP from any possible frame in the transmit queue of wlan device self.Defined as IEEE 802.11 defined MinChannelTime and MaxChannelTime (as the parameter of scan request), the time of a channel of scanning needs about 20-75 millisecond usually.
It is to be noted that defined as IEEE 802.11, power management bit is a defined field in the frame control field of the header of frame.
According to present embodiment, proposed such semanteme is added among the scan request, make to allow wireless device to send and receive MPDU at its interchannel that is scanning.After wlan device has scanned a channel, it will add back coupled AP, and allow send and receive MPDU before scanning moving to next channel.
This will be hereinafter referring to figs. 2 and 3 in flow chart describe.
Fig. 2 shows the scan operation of describing from the angle of wlan device.In step S1, be provided with and carry out the channel of scanning process thereon.In step S2, will be sent to the power management bit set of the Frame of AP, and send this and be grouped into AP.As previously mentioned, this will indicate this AP: the follow-up grouping that this wlan device is mail in plan should be buffered.In step S3, the mode of operation of wlan device is set in wlan device, is buffered so that will mail to the frame of this AP subsequently.

After this, process advances to step S5, in this step wlan device for example by transmission join request (as defined among the IEEE 802.11) add once more as described in AP (AP1 among Fig. 1).Then, wlan device can receive those by the grouping of this AP buffer memory, and can send the grouping that those are buffered in the transmit queue of wlan device oneself.
In step S6, check that the channel of whether all expectations all was examined.If no, process turns back to step S1, new channel is set in this step and repeats the step of back.If the channel of all expectations all was examined, then this process finishes.
It is to be noted that all checked condition of all channels is an example of the stop condition among the step S6.Replacedly, also have other stop condition, for example find suitable AP.In other words, in this situation, in active scan process, received probe response, and (for example determine AP, AP3 among Fig. 1) provides the connectivity that is fit to (also promptly, enough transmission qualities, transmission quality can measure by the received signal intensity from AP).
At the flow chart shown in Fig. 3, scanning process is described below from the angle of the access point (for example, the AP1 among Fig. 1) that wlan device connected.This process for example can be triggered when receiving frame at every turn.
In step S11, AP checks the frame (frame that is sent by wlan device also promptly) that whether has received power management bit and be set in the step S3 of Fig. 2.If do not receive such frame, then process finishes.But, if receive such frame, then process advances to step S12, and the subsequent frame that will mail to this wlan device in this step is buffered.
In step S13, check the other frame whether received from wlan device: this frame comprises and indicates the indication that the frame that is buffered can be sent to wlan device now, also, and the completed indication of scanning process.According to present embodiment, this indication is a poll frame.If do not receive such frame, process turns back to step S12.And if received poll frame from wlan device, process advances to step S14 so, the frame that is buffered in this step is sent to wlan device.And, at the buffer memory of wlan device own under the situation of frame, these frames also can be received.
In order to receive MPDU from AP, equipment uses PS (economize on electricity) poll frame, and monitoring is from the more multidata position (as defined among the IEEE 802.11) of received MPDU, to be used to determining whether that the PS that need send other discusses inquiry message to receive other MPDU or the like.In this was implemented, at least one PS poll frame always can be produced, to be used for the frame of equipment detection from AP.Depend on AP whether buffer memory at the data of this equipment, equipment sends or does not send the PS opinion and askes frame.
Selectively, can be transmitted from the transmit queue of wlan device after at the scanning process of a channel by the frame of wlan device buffer memory or MPDU (MAC (medium access control) protocol Data Unit), power management bit is cleared so that indicate a scanning process to finish in these frames or MPDU.
Especially, according to present embodiment, for scan logic operation the duration (channel of all expectations is scanned), the power management bit of Tx MPDU (sending to the MPDU of AP from WLAN) always is set.If there is not more channel to scan, depend on desired 802.11 energy-saving modes of wlan device (STA) (by the decision of WLAN host driven) so with this position, position or zero clearing, because last Tx MPDU can be used to notify the change about wlan device 802.11 energy-saving modes at AP.In addition, be under the situation of sky in the Tx formation, use special frames (802.11 empty Frame) to notify AP change usually about the wlan device powder source management mode.
Therefore, according to present embodiment, be minimized at delay with application that real-time requires.It is used for the host A PI (API) of WLAN MAC by introducing and revises the wlan device firmware code to allow the specifying enhancing scan request to be achieved, and this enhancing scan request allows wlan device to be requested the MPDU that transmits and receive data when carrying out scan operation.
Host A PI and wlan device firmware code will be described in conjunction with Fig. 4 hereinafter, and wherein Fig. 4 shows the logical construct of main process equipment A and wlan device C.
Main process equipment A as wlan device C host comprises that WLAN main frame MAC drives A1, and this A1 is the MAC layer software (SW) of higher level.In the MAC of this higher level layer, carrying out the MAC code does not have the hard real time requirement, perhaps has than its each layer real-time requirement still less down.WLAN host A PI A2 above-mentioned is provided to the connection of wlan device internet adapter software (SW) A3.This wlan device internet adapter software is converted to the specific order of wlan device with the defined logic WLAN operation of WLAN host A PI, and vice versa.

For example, in the above-described embodiment, the PS poll is used to trigger downstream data traffic.Yet instead U-APSD (the automatic power-save delivery of non-scheduling) also can be used as upstream data packet, and it triggers downstream data traffic then.
And according to above-mentioned execution mode, the transmission of MPDU and reception all are performed.Yet as selection, transmission can be only to carry out to send or receive.In other words, wlan device will transmit MPDU from its transmit queue when power management bit is set, and ask the data that receive but will can not discuss, and perhaps selectively, it will be discussed and ask with the reception data, but can not send MPDU.
The optional mode of other of above-mentioned execution mode is to carry out data when transmitting with AP between the scanning process, and notify this AP: this equipment has entered 802.11 and waken powder source management mode up.Concrete, according to IEEE 802.11, in order to change powder source management mode, the frame of wlan device by the success initiated by wlan device exchanges notifies AP.Power management bit indication powder source management mode (awakening mode (AM) or economize on electricity (PS)) in the frame control field of the frame that in this exchange, sends by wlan device, also, WLAN after the entire frame exchange completes successfully with the powder source management mode of employing.
And, the invention is not restricted to WLAN, need to carry out scan operation with in other wireless network that detects suitable access entity but can be used in.
In addition, in the superincumbent execution mode, channel and/frequency be described to scan carry out at parameter.Yet, also have the parameter that other is fit to.Selectively, such parameter can also be SSID (service is provided with identifier), carries out active scan in such mode in the tabulation of SSID, and wherein probe requests thereby all is sent out on each SSID at every turn.Request can occur on same frequency or other channel.
The example of roaming has been described in the superincumbent execution mode in addition.Yet the present invention also is implemented in the situation of other workbench in for example Wireless Telecom Equipment (for example wlan device or workbench) start and search self-organizing (AdHoc) network.In this case, the buffer memory that has been sent to the data of other workbench (for example, access point) only occurs over just in the wlan device.By this way, can quicken establishment of connection.In this case, might wlan device be established to the first possible AP or the connection of other workbench, so that some data that are buffered are transmitted.It is at the interim connection of channel set of expection before scanning process is finished that this connection can be considered.After having set up this interim connection, wlan device can continue to search for/scan at other workbench and AP on other channel, to find for example at the workbench AP that better quality of connection is provided than an AP aspect the signal quality.The standard of measurement of signal quality can be signal to noise ratio and the signal strength signal intensity that receives.Search/scanning continues in the channel set of expection according to the present invention, and this process can comprise a plurality of aforesaid interim connections.
