  • the impact of the duration spent by the station in waiting for, receiving, and processing the beacon frame every beacon interval is extremely significant when the WiFi device is otherwise idle. Due to the limited battery power supply of a mobile device, it would be desirable to minimize the power consumed by the device solely for this activity.

  • Transmissions in an 802.11 network are in the form of frames of which there are three main types: data frames, control frames, and management frames.
  • Data frames carry data from station to station.
  • Control frames are used in conjunction with data frames deliver data reliably from station to station.
  • Management frames are used by the AP to perform supervisory functions.
  • One type of management frame is the beacon frame.
  • Beacon frames are transmitted periodically by the AP at defined beacon intervals. Beacon frames contain information about the network and also indicate whether the AP has buffered data which is addressed to a particular station or stations, indicated by a traffic indication map (TIM).
  • TIM traffic indication map
  • Certain beacon frames may also contain a delivery traffic indication map (DTIM) which indicates that group addressed traffic will be delivered in a subsequent frame. Stations that are associated with an AP and are otherwise idle must thus be in an active state to receive and process the beacon frames at the defined beacon intervals.
  • DTIM delivery traffic indication map
  • Described herein are methods to reduce the duration spent by a station device in an active receive (RX) mode for the purpose of beacon processing, which may be referred to as smart beacon processing.
  • Such mart beacon processing may be compromised of any or all of the following techniques:
  • Optimized PLCP preamble processing is applicable when the WLAN operates in 802.11(b) mode where frames are transmitted with a long PLCP preamble for synchronization purposes.
  • the optimized PLCP preamble processing allows the physical layer to be synchronized with a short synchronization time that starts after the beginning of the PLCP preamble, thus allowing the WiFi device to start reception of beacons later.
  • Early beacon processing refers to allowing the MAC layer to process the beacon fields and IEs during its arrival without waiting for the transmission of the beacon frame to successfully complete.
  • This technique allows the MAC layer to decide whether beacon frame reception can be aborted so that the receiver (i.e, PHY subsystem and RF transceiver) can be turned off after a partial processing of the frame without waiting for frame completion.
  • the partial processing of the beacon includes the beacon's fields and IEs up to the Traffic indication map (TIM) field to insure delivery of directed or non-directed frames.
  • TIM Traffic indication map
  • Smart FIFO buffering between the PHY and MAC subsystems refers to allowing the MAC subsystem to remain idle, while the PHY subsystem receives the beacon, until a partial frame is available for processing.
  • Each technique may be used alone, or a combination of some or all of the techniques may be utilized in conjunction with each other.
  • Fig. 2 is a diagram that shows how smart beacon processing may reduce a WLAN device's active time when waking up to receive a process beacon frames.
  • An example beacon frame 210 is shown as beginning with a PLCP preamble/header 21 1 (shown in figure as lasting 192 ⁇ $ ⁇ ) and followed by a MAC header 212, a beacon frame body 213 that includes a TIM 214, and frame check sequence (FCS) 215 at the end of the frame.
  • FCS frame check sequence
  • the idle device must awaken from a sleep state to an active state in order to process the beacon frame.
  • the PHY subsystem remains active for the entire duration of beacon frame, and the MAC subsystem is active slightly longer in order to process the received frame.
  • Optimized PLCP preamble processing allows the PHY subsystem to activate after the beginning of the PLCP preamble (e.g., 100 ⁇ $ ⁇ as shown in the figure).
  • Smart FIFO buffering between the PHY and MAC subsystems allows the MAC subsystem to remain idle until the TIM region of the beacon frame is nearly reached.
  • Early beacon processing allows the MAC subsystem to abort the processing early after the TIM in the frame is reached.
  • Smart beacon processing allows the window in which the WiFi device is active to be reduced for beacon reception. This significantly reduces the power consumption when a WLAN station device is in an idle/associated state while maintaining the ability to receive traffic. Previous operating procedures are based on the whole beacon frame being received successfully by the device before initiating beacon processing.

  • Optimized PLCP preamble processing allows the device to save some of the length of PLCP preamble.
  • the length of long PLCP preamble and header when the WLAN is operating in 802.1 lb mode is 192 microseconds.

The late wakeup may be initiated only when the connection manager module indicates that the network is sending beacons with a long preamble (192usec), otherwise the modem may not have enough time to synchronize on the signal.

If all of the beacon fields/IEs have been processed and pass the CRC (cyclic redundancy check), the device either initiates delivery of the unicast at stage S8 or waits for the groupcast at stage S9, depending upon whether a groupcast or unicast indicator was set previously.
