Abstract

Profile-based passive network switching of wireless mobile devices comprises receiving at a wireless access point a device specific identifier beacon transmitted from a mobile device and extracting a device specific identifier from the beacon. The access point then transmits the device specific identifier and access point provider information to a networked server configured with presence network switching software for determining network switching requirements based on the transmitted device specific identifier. The access point then receives mobile device network switching data from the server for processing. The access point then transmits local wireless network authentication and connection information from the access point to the mobile device to facilitate activating a wireless network connection between the mobile device and the access point at which point the access point starts processing wireless communication from the mobile device over the local wireless network.

For passive wireless electricity Access Network to radio access network equipment transformation present platform

The cross reference of related application

This application claims the rights and interests (each in them is incorporated herein by reference with its full content) of following provisional application: the United States serial No. 61/546,086 that on October 12nd, 2011 submits to.

Technical field

Method and system described herein relates generally to wireless devices network authentication, and identifies in particular to the passive equipment changed for wireless network and user.

Background technology

Use 802.11 specifications of communication equipment 12 eight octet field being called as MAC Address can be used to come to other device identifications they oneself.Each grouping of Wireless transceiver comprises MAC header, and it comprises the MAC Address of source and/or intended destination equipment.These groupings are absorbed by all wireless devices, and wherein media access control sublayer checks MAC Address field and then abandons grouping or grouping be delivered to higher data link layer for further process.

MAC Address usually " hard coded " on connection chip and be irreversible, but the radio chip upgraded allows MAC Address to pass through software change.This allow in order to protect identity use anonymous MAC Address to change MAC information in grouping or use look-up table or some use the additive method of the intelligent packet route of multiple MAC Address, the MAC Address on network is distributed to each equipment to prevent MAC Address from copying and for the MAC Address of an equipment is cloned into another equipment.

Although the data transmitted in packet radio when secure network can be encrypted, MAC Address does not have encrypted, because they are for the destination filtering to grouping before any further process generation.By amendment device driver software, all groupings of importing into may be accepted and the MAC Address of no matter specifying in MAC header.This allows to have the roaming wireless electricity equipment eavesdropping packet radio of modified device driver software, checks their MAC header and identifies the MAC Address of other wireless devices in its vicinity, and without the need to equipment possessory knowledge or permit in advance.

At present, voice/data payload transformation (" switching " or " handover ") of opening/safety that the various telecom solutions of classifying according to fixed estropia (FMC) and/or the mobile access (UMA) of non-license allow to initiate from elementary automated validation (do not need end user mutual) wide area radio Access Network (network of cell tower (base station transceiver) such as operated by mobile operator and so on) to secondary user's (free, with good conditionsi or pay) destination wireless network.Opening/security purpose ground wireless network that this secondary user's is initiated comprises various wireless wide area network, regional network and local area network (LAN) (being WAN, WRAN and WLAN respectively), that wherein most of business adopts is the WLAN based on IEEE 802.11 standard operated in non-licensed radio frequency frequency spectrum, is commonly called Wi-Fi.This particular example changed to the mobile device of the secondary Wi-Fi network set operated by many foreign sides from the single elementary WAN operated by mobile operator is the important driver of current above-mentioned FMC/UMA solution of being proposed by solution provider.But the most of current realization of FMC solution needs initiatively end user's reservation (non-passive), and they just can promote that the payload between elementary and destination radio access network changes afterwards.

When the payload of the WAN operated from mobile operator to destination WLAN changes, usually this end user is required to preengage to obtain official's license from the WAN of mobile operator operation because of the needs to both the end-user device on authentication purpose ground WLAN or certification end-user device and WLAN.Existing IEEE agreement (such as announced in 2008 802.21) is special allows the better seamless transitions between each wireless network on different spectral (once they certified and connect), but still requires to set up the initial manual end user's reservation connected.These initiatively end user's reservation usually comprise manually downloading and expect mobile device client software on the WLAN of destination and/or manual authentication and subsequently this process repeated to the destination WLAN of each new expectation.Because it is relevant with the manual reservation in such as Wi-Fi network, so end user usually must enter service set identifier or SSID(for hiding Wi-Fi network) or select SSID from the SSID classification propagated.If destination network is safe network, then also may require that end user is manually provided for the key of certification in addition.

In order to the further end user of this specific service condition and its implementation being converted to WLAN from the WAN of mobile operator operation adopts, Wireless Networking, the certification that the connection that the seamless payload that the while that when manufacturing industry and the various stakeholder in the service supplier's ecosystem equipment comprised by detecting end user being set up, WLAN is connected (except elementary WAN connects) and is implemented to WLAN switches the radio access network using elementary mobile operator operation changes with the end-user device and payload that proceed to secondary Wi-Fi network, the concept of the universal access network (GAN) that more how seamless end user experiences.The amendment (i.e. 802.11u) of having set up IEEE 802.11 agreement, to publicize the information in Wi-Fi network, can select them to have permission the network (i.e. Wi-Fi network) proposed by third party's (such as non-master network external or " roaming partner " Mobile Network Operator) of access to make end user.

Although have these innovations, the great majority with the fixed estropia solution of universal access network realize the initial manually transformation that the first time for each new secondary destination network will be required to use.Although this is because elementary network authentication is automatically (subscriber and corresponding end-user device information store on the remote server by mobile operator), but payload transformation also depends on the success identity of mobile device to destination network of end user, and it is initial always manual as mentioned.Once the given mobile device of user seamlessly on authentication purpose zone network, GAN will only seamlessly run.But, formed with most of Mobile Network Operator and contrast, most of destination network (and on 802.11 operation all WLAN) only can allow seamless transitions in being stored on end-user device by verify data and be stored in Long-distance Control data storage area.This will require that end user performs manual authentication at least one times to each new destination radio access network.

Summary of the invention

Method and system described herein can use the key of long-range distribution to create the MAC Address through conversion in order to radio-packet transport, it can be locally stored or cannot be locally stored.By making MAC Address convert (such as by adding the time to conversion as variable), the MAC Address through conversion can change along with the time; The MAC Address transmitted is made to be dynamic thus so that the MAC Address that receives of given radio access network can periodically not essential (such as per hourly, every day ground, etc.).Because can only locally convert when transmitting, so once the MAC Address in header is reversed conversion, any other use (such as Packet routing) for MAC Address still can complete.MAC Address through conversion can also be used as device-specific identifier as described herein (DSI).

Method and system described herein can be avoided end user's manual authentication, the first needs connected even arriving new destination radio access network by impelling the mobile device of end user automatically to launch the WLAN Unique Device unique identifiers (DSI) of the software Passive intake that can detect it.This process is here also referred to as and presents or passively to present.In one example, the mobile device of end user DSI together with the identifier of WLAN be passed to can this information of seamless absorption and then certification by the modified general access network controller of Mobile Network Operator or their users independently on the WLAN that operates of third party's wlan network operators in co-operation partner.Proposed invention also has revises the resistive additional benefits of tool to the user on client device, because each equipment is uniquely identified.In addition, be placed on the software revised in access point and can allow to use existing protocol and method and existing protocol to be connected with network while method, to reach the object of feasible seamless delivering here.

In the past, the transformation between each Mobile Network Operator WAN to be easier to and more reliable end user experiences because of the best practices (namely from " family " Cellular Networks to the transformation of " roaming " net) set up by large Mobile Network Operator.Method and system described herein can utilize automatically launch and the device-specific identifier of Passive intake to realize the simplification of the transformation between any two incompatible radio access networks and seamless end user experiences.Included method and system can also be the alternative method of the seamless transitions (namely " family " Cellular Networks is to " roaming " net) realized between two WAN.

Method and system described herein also provides the network insertion of the end user's device be provided in the region with low WAN signal (such as honeycomb) or the more feasible alternative not being linked into mobile operator WAN.Proposed invention can utilize by revising other prior wireless network hardware residing on the existing software on prior wireless network hardware and obtain.With existing solution such as Femto cell (commercial be also referred to as " little community " and " picocell ") (this Femto cell is that Mobile Network Operator is special, because they utilize the unique radio frequency frequency spectrum of each Mobile Network Operator and the radio access network interface of correspondence) form contrast, in many cases, proposed invention is more suitable substituting because it provide the end-user device of more wide region can non-licensed radio spectrum access and there is the passive transformation benefit of Femto cell.Say clearer, if the radio access network interface of the mobile device of end user and the radio access network interface of Femto cell have common hardware and software and operate (the latter is the agency of the first factor for determining the certification to which Mobile Network Operator of equipment Internet access) on same authorized frequency, then the equipment from cellular base station transceiver to Femto cell changes and can only change.This means only can realize seamless delivering when the Radio Access Interface of elementary network is imitated in Femto cell or other secondary radio Access Networks.But proposed invention makes the mobile device belonging to elementary mobile network to be seamlessly converted to have the secondary mobile network of not compatible attribute (comprise operate on license/non-authorized frequency, have different hardware/software network interface etc. for radio access).Most of something in commons of such transformation will be used to the radio access network of mobile device from Mobile Network Operator (mainly comprising cellular base station transceiver) to WLAN(Wi-Fi router) transformation, this is the thing that existing solution can not realize.

The proposed privately owned wireless protocols that presents has the fundamental characteristics that itself and existing wireless communications agreement are differentiated, thus supports the non-licensed spectrum of 2.4GHz or 5GHz, and such as bluetooth and IEEE 802.11(market are called Wi-Fi).Proposed invention and agreement utilize the Physical architecture closely similar with IEEE 802.11 and agreement proposed by result meets the various laws and regulations requirements (i.e. FCC) putting on wireless radio transmission.

Be sent to and present presenting beacon frame and can using the address (such as 00:00:00:00:00:00) irrelevant with destination of measuring station (PDS).This allows normal WLAN AP to ignore transmission, any PDS simultaneously allowing to have different address not have between two equipment any shake hands and this any shake hands before receive and the same packets of process for being in harmonious proportion.

Present frame can detect to equipment (such as CFS to CFS) by support equipment.The proposed agreement that presents may be not required for and makes it run and set up Basic Service Set (BSS).This allows to support that equipment of presenting is not when having handshake procedure and set up subsequent data transmission to connect (connection such as undertaken by Wi-Fi, bluetooth or any other device-to-device Data Transport Protocol or association) and work.

Proposed present agreement and also may not require that any acknowledgement frame is to check that successful data transmits.Because when by present that beacon dispatching station (PBS) transmits present beacon frame outside beacon detection zone (BDA) time it can not be picked up by PDS, thus confirmation request frame impels PBS repeatedly to transmit in some cases.When agreement is within BDA, this agreement depends on shorter beacon and sends scheduling interval (BSI) to form for the possible loss divided into groups on the contrary.

The proposed agreement that presents is by complicated carrier sense multiple access/conflict avoidance (CSMA/CA) scheme not using Bluetooth frequency hopping scheme to avoid interference or will not implement for IEEE 802.11 required competition.On the contrary, the existing business in interference 2.4GHz or 5GHz frequency, display device may depend on the lasting CSMA pattern of more basic 1-without collision detection/avoid.

Present framework and architecture and comprise the some parts interacted to be provided for the platform presenting detection and/or certification.PBS launches beacon frame constantly and beacon frame is absorbed by PDS when it enters BDA.The instruction that PDS uses it to receive from beacon frame and the information that receives each process of being in harmonious proportion.In order to the summary providing the object of information to provide this mediation here.Instruction can send to PBS to affect its transport behavior by PDS.Information can also be sent to the authentication service on PBS by it.

In an example of beacon frame instruction harmonic process, can by presenting framework to support Multilevel user harmonic process to protect the identity of user and to guarantee to keep privacy when sharing users information.Present framework and use two different identification layers (each has different identifier collection), application layer and machine to machine layer.

Figure 11 describes for installing the illustrative steps supporting the application program presented.Be called as and present API(PAPI) application program layer interface allow application program support to present ability so that the identifier being called as application-specific user hash (ASUH) by generation identifies each user uniquely to applications providers.When application program installed first and only present share between frame parts and applications providers time, each application program affiliate generates its oneself ASUH.Each applications providers also provides presenting in frame system the unique identifier being called as application-specific identifier (ASI) identifying them.Proposed method and system also promotes that allowing all application program affiliates to inform the user them is asking to present data so that the position used in their EULA, and can also check subsequently and adjust this information subtly to present setting.

Independent machine to machine layer interface use device-specific interface (DSI) identifies the equipment that each support presents uniquely.DSI can be the derivative of the MAC Address had in the equipment of unique mac address.For the equipment that MAC Address is not unique, generate one or more such as by MAC Address converter technique described herein of DSI(individually), and this DSI is distributed to equipment.DSI is only presenting known in frame system and can not share this DSI with other entities or this DSI is not associated with any user data.DSI is a part for all beacon frames transmitted by PBS.Importantly, if DSI will be absorbed by unauthorized entity, then it cannot be in harmonious proportion with any user profile or identity.

Figure 12 describes the exchange of identifier in harmonic process.DSI launches as a part for its beacon by presenting beacon dispatching station (PBS).PDS from beacon frame absorb DSI and subsequently by its relaying to remote data server (RDS) to process.RDS inquires about DSI and determines which application program affiliate has been ratified to receive by user and presents/position data for what detect website.Then determined that application program affiliate can utilize this ASUH to carry out identifying user for sending their corresponding ASUH the application program affiliate of this site access.

The beacon frame sent by PBS is only detected when there is transmission in BDA.Once PBS leaves BDA, its beacon frame just can not picked up by PDS again, and at this some place, it stops receiving instruction from PDS and being switched to the disappearance electrical energy saving transmission mode with comparatively long letter mark transmission scheduling interval (BSI).

The AP(PAP that can be presented by support) send dedicated beacon frame with the passive certification allowing core WLAN to connect.PAP can authenticate PBS and hiding SSID and WEP/WPA/WPA2 key is directly passed to PBS.This information is used to trigger the association request from PBS.The more detailed description of illustrative embodiments shown in example below.

We describe now and are used for presenting beacon dispatching station (PBS) just present to this illustrative methods that beacon dispatching station (PBS) provides passive WLAN certification and concatenation ability or in case of emergency avoid certification completely once identify.

Support that the access point (PAP) presented is WLAN access point (AP), when being equipped with proposed invention with the software form in the hardware resided in WLAN access point, this WLAN access point also serves as and presents measuring station (PDS).With only can detect compared with the independent PDS that presents, PAP with the addition of the function making them can realize the access to the more service of wide region.

When PAP detects new PBS in its beacon detection zone (BDA), its first as described herein user profile mediation is normal PDS.In addition, if user has the privilege of accessing the WLAN provided by PAP, then PAP is given to provide WLAN authentication information to PBS by instruction and encryption key from cloud storage.PAP uses this double secret key SSID and WLAN secret key encryption and guides this information to PBS with beacon.Software client on PBS can be deciphered SSID and WLAN key and they is used for certification passively and be connected to the WLAN provided by PAP.Summarize these steps in fig. 13.

When urgent beacon is detected by PAP, SSID and WLAN key is sent to PBS by PAP automatically, without the need to waiting for the harmonic process by cloud.Summarize these involved steps in fig. 14.

Proposed proprietary protocol limits the service needed for the operation of this agreement, but may can not require the particular implementation of described service.PBS and PDS has different function collection and is responsible for initiating and/or perform some service.Implement the service for PDS without the need to PBS and implement the service for PBS without the need to PDS.

The service that can be triggered by PDS that PBS implements comprises:

Increase beacon frequency

Realize WLAN access.

The service that this locality that PBS implements is triggered is:

Launch DSI beacon

Launch DSI+ timestamp beacon

Launch DSI+EAS beacon.

The service that PDS implements is:

Mediation PBS beacon frame

Launch DBS beacon

Launch TSR beacon

Launch WLAN parameter beacon (only on PAP).

PBS generates the service that may affect the overall behavior of presentity system structure.

PBS with the fixed intervals determined by BSI to launch beacon frame.Once beacon frame is absorbed, PBS just can initiate other services.

Be activated if added timestamp, then PBS transmits beacon frame together with the time passing nearest 1.25 nanoseconds from last beacon.

If PBS has activated emergency alarm system (EAS), then it can launch preferential beacon frame.When PDS receives preferential beacon frame, its process and mediation information thus while preferential beacon frame is processed, every other non-preferential beacon frame is pushed in buffer.Preferential beacon frame can have precedence over the setting of all privacy of user and start to collect and presents information and allow to access the service that can provide under normal circumstances or can not provide.

When PDS detects PBS first in its BDA, its PBS can be indicated to reduce time quantum that its BSI reaches setting.If PBS remains in BDA crossed time restriction, then it can be again indicated to maintain the frequency increased.Once PBS leaves BDA, it just can give tacit consent to BSI to it by automatic reduction when lacking the beacon frame from PDS.

PAP can be indicated to realize the WLAN access on PBS.PBS is given by the encryption key set up needed for WLAN connection and/or SSID.When receiving WLAN access information, this information is passed to software client by PBS.This software client can use this information to connect to set up WLAN subsequently.

PDS can instruct PBS, and whether BDA needs to add timestamp.If then PBS can launch DSI+TSR(" timestamp request ") beacon instead of regular DSI beacon.When PBS enters BDA first and is in aturegularaintervals later, support that all PDS of the timestamp being used for signal analysis can propagate TSR beacon frame.When lacking this TSR beacon frame, PBS can stop adding timestamp this beacon.

When PDS receives beacon frame from PBS, it may need to route the information to remote data server (RDS).PDS can monitor the signal strength signal intensity of importing beacon frame into and only route PBS data (once its passing threshold).Importantly, PDS is also according to receiving their their priority and the beacon frame that is sequentially in harmonious proportion.EAS beacon frame there is limit priority and on priority channel route they.

Once PBS enter its BDA, PDS just can high-speed cache PBS information.When PBS first being detected, PDS can launch beacon frame, once by PBS receive this beacon by reduce PBS BSI thus make PBS with less interval to launch beacon frame.PDS can maintain dispatching algorithm and launch beacon frame to notify that to PBS they are within its BDS.

If BDA is equipped with to be provided the function of interpolation for the timestamp information of signal analysis by process, then it can send the additional beacon frame being called as TSR beacon.To PBS, this beacon notifies that it needs beacon to be added timestamp.When PBS is detected first and is also in aturegularaintervals later, PDS may need to send this beacon frame, because when lacking this beacon frame, PBS may stop adding timestamp its beacon.

PAP has WLAN ability, and the information needed for connecting is sent to core wlan network.Once PAP has been detected and has made PBS be in harmonious proportion, it just can launch the beacon frame comprising SSID and WLAN authenticate key when being indicated by RDS.If PBS is just launching priority emergency beacon frame, then this information can also sent out PBS in this locality by PAP acquiescently.

Present description presents the form of frame.Stand (STA) suitably should be able to construct the subset of frame and the different subsets of frame specified by decoding.Can be present beacon transmission frame (PBS) still to present measuring station (PDS) and determine this set by STA.All STA should be able to use Frame Check Sequence (FCS) verify each frame of receiving and explain some field according to frame header.

Each frame comprises solvent below:

Header, its compromise frame controls and the duration;

Variable-length frame main body, it comprises the information being exclusively used in frame type;

FCS, it comprises IEEE 32 bit CRC.

Frame is described to a series of fields being in predefined order.Each figure in Part V describes the field (from left to right) when field appears at frame from the order that physical layer is launched with them.

All bits in field are all numbered, and (from 0 to k), wherein the length of field is k+1 bit.Eight bit byte border in field can be obtained for mould with 8 by making the bit number of field.The order (from numbering minimum bit to numbering the highest bit) increased with importance describes the eight bit byte in the numeric field longer than single eight bit byte.Eight bit byte in the numeric field that single eight bit byte is longer is sent to physical layer, and order is from comprising the eight bit byte of the minimum bit of numbering to the eight bit byte comprising the highest bit of numbering.Any field comprising cyclic redundancy code (CRC) is the exception of this convention, and transmits this any field from the coefficient of most higher order term.

The proposed frame format that presents comprises in all frames with the set of fields that permanent order occurs.Figure 15 describes commonly to present frame format.First three field in Figure 15 (frame controls, duration/ID and recipient address) and last field (FCS) form minimum frame form and are present in all frames.Field source address and frame main body exist only in some frame type.Frame main body has and depends on the variable-sized of frame type.

Frame control field forms following son field: protocol version, type, priority and the mark relevant with WLAN.The form of frame control field is illustrated in Figure 16.

The length of protocol version field is 2 bits and is constant with regard to the size of all corrections of this standard and placement.It also reflects the protocol version of 802.11 standards that same radio is supported.This release level only can be increased to increase progressively when allowing the cross-compatibility across the standard of multiple equipment at the release level of 802.11 agreements.Any frame with higher revision level that receives should abandon the frame without any instruction giving STA or logic link control (LLC).

The length of type field is 6 bits.The function of type field identification frames.There are two kinds of frame types: beacon and control.Each in these frame types has several subtype defined.Table 1 defines the combination of each subtype.(digital value in table 1 illustrates with binary system).

Table 1---life type combines.

Bit 7 is configured to 0 and in control frame, is configured to 1. bits 6 in the frame being derived from PBS, be configured to 0 and be configured to 1 in the frame being derived from PDS within a beacon frame.

Precedence field can be configured to determine the priority of the order that beacon frame is processed at (Media access contorl) MAC or higher level place.Process other beacon of same priority with the basis of first in first out, and always before comparatively low level, remove higher prior rank.The combination of definition value and corresponding priority level in fig. 2.

The precedence field value of table 2---beacon frame.

The proposed header that presents has 6 added bits, and these 6 added bits are added to make this present header and have the length identical with the frame control field specified in IEEE 802.11 MAC header.Order in bit 10,11,13,14 and the more segmentations of 15(, retry, more data, shielded frame and IEEE 802.11) be all configured to 0.Power management from the bit 12(IEEE 802.11 of all PDS) be configured to 0, but be configured to 1 from the bit 12 of all PBS.

The length of Duration field is 16 bits.The code that duration value is used to define in the clause 9.2.5.4 according to IEEE 802.11 upgrades network allocation vector (NAV).Duration field is configured to the time quantum needed for microsecond meter to send whole frame.Because proposed agreement has the transmission of an only frame length at most, so it will not require that equipment reserves longer time restriction.

Each address field comprises 48 bit addresses of the identifier serving as equipment.All PDS by 00:00:00:00:00:00(in hexadecimal) as their address, and determined the address of the PBS being called as DSI by the Add-ons in the application layer of equipment.

Frame main body is the variable length comprising the additional information being exclusively used in some frame type.Minimum frame main body is 0 eight bit byte, because not all type all needs to propagate additional information.

FCS field is 32 bit fields comprising 32 bit CRC.The proposed all fields presenting header and frame body field calculate FCS.FCS calculates identical with the calculating specified in IEEE 802.11.

Use index be below the standard generator polynomial of 32 to calculate FCS:

G(x)?=?x ³²?+?x ²⁶?+?x ^23?+?x ²²?+?x ¹⁶?+?x ¹²?+?x ¹¹?+?x ¹⁰?+?x ⁸?+?x ⁷?+?x ⁵?+?x ⁴?+?x ²?+?x?+?1。

FCS is the complement of the following sum (with 2 for mould):

X ^k× (x ³¹+ x ³⁰+ x ²⁹+ ... + x ²+ x+1) divided by the remainder of (with 2 for mould) G (x), wherein k is the number of bit in calculated field, and

X is multiplied by the content (being counted as multinomial) of calculated field ³²and then divided by the remainder after G (x).

Transmit the FCS field from the coefficient of most higher order term.

As exemplary embodiment, at reflector place, the initial remainder of division is preset to and is all 1 and then revises them by the division of calculated field to generator polynomial G (x).First most higher order bits (as FCS field) is utilized to transmit the complement of this remainder.

At receiver place, initial remainder is preset to and is all 1 and when the bit that imports into continuously divided by FCS during G (x) and calculated field causes not having transmission error in unique non-zero remainder value.Unique remainder values is following multinomial:

x ³¹?+?x ³⁰?+?x ²⁶?+?x ²⁵?+?x ²⁴?+?x ¹⁸?+?x ¹⁵?+?x ¹⁴?+?x ¹²?+?x ¹¹?+?x ¹⁰?+?x ⁸?+?x ⁶?+?x ⁵?+?x ⁴?+?x ³?+?x?+?1。

The frame format of control frame and frame subtype have nothing to do and define this frame format in fig. 17.Recipient address is configured to the DSI of destination equipment.Duration field is configured to transmission and treats that framing adds the time interval needed for short interframe space (SIFS) interval.

Son field in the frame control field of control frame is set as illustrated in Figure 18 like that.

In Figure 19, definition is used for the frame format of DSI beacon frame.

Recipient address is configured to 0xFFFFFFFFFFFF(in hexadecimal) and source DSI is the DSI of transfer equipment.Duration field is configured to transmit treats that framing adds the time needed for a SIFS interval.

Definition is used for the frame format of DSI+ timestamp beacon frame in fig. 20.

DSI+ timestamp frame has the field identical with DSI beacon frame, but also has the timestamp field comprising additional clocking information.When realizing adding timestamp, PBS carries out timing to passing the time of 1.25 nearest nanoseconds from transmitting the time of last beacon.It is in the timestamp field of 8 eight bit bytes that the time in past is inserted into length.

Definition is used for the frame format of WLAN SSID+ key beacon frame in figure 21.

Recipient DIS is the DSI of the equipment of authorized access WLAN.Source MAC is the MAC Address of WLAN AP.Duration field is configured to transmit treats that framing adds the time needed for a SIFS interval.The length of frame body field can be 3 to 98 eight bit bytes and describe its content in 5.3.2 joint.

The minimum length of WLAN frame main body 3 eight bit bytes and greatly enhance 98 eight bit bytes most.Define its form in fig. 22.

The type of the encryption used by WLAN, determine frame main body header in the length of the SSID of byte and in the length of the key of byte, and define this frame main body header in fig 23.SSID can be long to 32 eight bit bytes from 1 eight bit byte, and key can be that 0 to 64 eight bit bytes are long.

According to the kind of the encryption on WLAN, WLAN type is set.Provide the probable value for WLAN type in figure 3.SSID length is in the length of the eight bit byte of SSID, and wherein maximum is 32, and WLAN key length is that wherein maximum is 64 in the eight bit byte of WLAN encryption key.

Table 3---WLAN Type subfield combines.

The proposed agreement that presents is designed to utilize the MAC function collection identical with IEEE 802.11.Although may not need to support whole function collection, some in them carry out Frame switch for more than one involved frame needed for 802.11, and this agreement can use existing contention protocols to determine when and send grouping.Except existing function, this agreement also may need the additional function described in these chapters and sections.Scheduling beacon function (SBF) is determined that PBS is many and is transmitted DSI beacon continually.When equipment has made EAS mode activation on PBS trigger emergency beacon function (EBF).

SBF keeps determining when a series of timers transmitting next beacon.There is the BSI of two predefined 60 seconds and 15 seconds.PBS gives tacit consent to the use BSI of 60 seconds.

The timer of 0 countdown SBF should come with the interval specified by BSI.Once timer arrives the transmission that 0, SBF just should start beacon frame.If exist for 802.11 treat that if framing or medium do, then should send in next obtainable chance and present beacon frame.Once beacon is successfully delivered (attention this means that beacon is sent to physical layer and successfully leaves it, may not be picked up by another equipment), SBF will reset timer and repeat this process.

When receiving DBS beacon on PBS, SBF should be switched to the use BSI of 15 seconds.PBS should use shorter BSI to send next 20 beacon (beacons of next 5 minutes).If receive DBS beacon at this time durations, then it restarts to be 20 beacon timing with shorter BSI.If do not receive DBS beacon, then it switches the acquiescence BSI got back to 60 seconds.

By physics or virtual mechanism or SBF can be implemented by both.Here example embodiment is discussed.

Beacon needs SBF with every 60 seconds default rate once.When PBS receive reduce beacon send scheduling (DBS) beacon time, the beacon transmission frequency that PBS can initiate every 15 seconds 1 beacons continues the period (next 20 beacons) of 5 minutes.If receive another DBS beacon in this time frame, then PBS may continue to transmit beacon with 15 seconds intervals and continue another 5 minutes.When PBS misses the reception of DBS beacon, it turns back to acquiescence 60 seconds intervals.

Count_A, type: integer, minimum value: 0, maximum 4, (counting 4x15s interval is so that every 60s sends beacon)

Count_B, type: integer, minimum value: 0, maximum 20, (counting 20x15s interval is to turn back to acquiescence SBI)

SBI, type: boolean, true=SBI is 60s, false=SBI is 15s.

In Figure 24, diagram is used for the flow chart of SBF execution mode.

False code for SBF execution mode is shown below.

On PBS, EBF is used when activating EAS pattern on equipment.EBF arranges precedence field in presenting in header of all beacon frames, thus makes PBS be high (see chapters and sections 5.1.3.1.3).EBF ignores any other service attempting to stride across PHY layer.

When PDS receives high priority beacon but resides on media access control sublayer, this PDS uses ERF.

Proposed agreement uses physics (PHY) layer identical with the IEEE 802.11 described in detail in IEEE 802.11 specification clause 12,13,14 with 15 and hopping.

Although compared with IEEE 802.11, this agreement is designed to be used in the lasting CSMA pattern of the 1-without collision detection/avoidance mechanism.Whenever presenting grouping and being ready to be transmitted, check medium is to look at whether there is ongoing transmission.If medium is idle, then transmit this grouping immediately.If busy medium, then before transmission presents grouping, PHY layer may be waited for until the medium free time.

Here be exceed that the physical layer that provides in chapters and sections above describes about the detailed description presenting measuring station (PDS) and how to run.

The major function of PDS absorbs the beacon frame launched by PBS, and subsequently the device-specific identifier (DSI) of PBS is relayed to remote data server (RDS) together with the associated metadata identifying PDS.The all devices serving as PDS needs Internet connection can communicate with RDS.PDS uses ICP/IP protocol to communicate with RDS.

PDS can also maintain and make the local cache table of all PBS current in its beacon detection zone (BDA).PDS can also with aturegularaintervals by beacon emissions to all PBS in this table.When they time (the 5th chapters and sections see for DBS form), can be sent to each PBS to trigger shorter beacon emissions interval by minimizing beacon transmission scheduling (DBS) mouse beacon in BDA.If there is radio-frequency (RF) tag (RFT), then PDS can also launch beacon detection zone (RBDA) beacon format supporting radio-frequency (RF) tag.PDS can maintain the scheduling above-mentioned frame being sent to all PBS in its BDA.

PDS can import the intensive analysis of beacon executive signal into from all of PBS.PDS can have the algorithm allowing them PBS launched lower than predefined threshold signal strength level to be carried out to filtering.For the position being equipped with multiple PDS, PDS may be able to carry out communicating and by the signal strength analysis data of collecting at each PDS place and more the comparing of good position PBS place each other.

Proprietary protocol proposed when we are described in 911 calling is now for providing the method for location-based service to emergency response person.

This agreement has the built-in mechanism helping emergency response person when in the presenting and beacon dispatching station (PBS) is equipped with 911 calling of such as mobile device and so on.All precedence fields presented in beacon frame main body header (with reference to chapters and sections 5.1.3.1.3) are set to height by the urgent beacon function (EBF) on PBS.Beacon is also sent scheduling interval (BSI) and is reduced to 15 seconds by EBF.

When presenting measuring station (PDS) and high priority beacon being detected, trigger emergency response function (ERF) on PDS.ERF can impel PDS at all high priority beacons of pre-treatment of the beacon of process lower priority.If PDS is the part presenting access point (PAP), then SSID and WLAN authenticate key can also be sent to PBS with beacon by PAP.

If there is low signal intensity over a cellular network or do not have signal strength signal intensity, then when EBF receives SSID and WLAN key, EBF can determine that whether setting up WLAN connects.This guarantees even in the region with the reception of poor honeycomb, covers, still can carry out 911 callings if there is PAP.

ERF also guarantees all information be associated with preferential beacon to be routed to remote data server (RDS) by priority channel.RDS ignores all privacies and arranges and can share with emergency response person and present/position data, even if user does not also have pre-authorization that he present/position data is collected in specified location.

Proposed agreement is the New Deal about 2.4/5GHz radio frequency.It is designed to use presenting detection and certification but having its oneself privately owned packet format of the same physical layer instruction of Wi-Fi.Any Wi-Fi AP has the basic hardware requirement supporting to present needed for consciousness.This description general introduction makes existing Wi-Fi AP can become needed for PAP and is used as presenting additional firmware/Change In Design of a part for solution.

Figure 25 illustrates the amendment needed for existing Wi-Fi access point architectural framework.MAC layer abandon by physical layer catch concerning invalid or significant all groupings another destination.May need to make amendment to MAC layer, be routed to now new present firmware routines to process to make to present grouping.The new firmware of AP inside also must communicate with outer remote data server.

Proposed present grouping there is very similar structure of dividing into groups with 802.11, there is some key difference.Summarize basic grouped structure in fig. 26.

Frame controls: arrange the son field in frame control as illustrated in Figure 27 like that.Subtype can adopt any value from 0x00 to 0x0F, and priority can adopt any value from 0x00 to 0x03.

Duration: it is current does not have settings in presentity system structure.It keeps intact to make address field subsequently and 802.11 consistent.

Recipient address: this address is configured to 0xFFFFFFFFFFFF and can receives grouping to make any Pap and process it.

Source DSI: this source DSI can be any value from 0x01 to 0xFFFFFFFFFFFE and be unique for the mobile device that each support presents.

FCS:FCS field is 32 bit fields comprising 32 bit CRC.FCS is calculated by 16 bytes above.FCS calculates identical with that regulation in IEEE 802.11.

Signal strength signal intensity/(adding timestamp): except grouped data, the signal strength signal intensity of grouping being used for apparatus for establishing position presenting that firmware routines also needs to receive.Although be not mandatory requirement, add timestamp the accuracy helping improve location at acceptance point place.

Internet accesses: presenting firmware routines also needs to communicate with remote data server via 4G/3G modulator-demodulator or other Internet connections a certain.

Figure 28 illustrates the amendment needed for existing Wi-Fi architectural framework on cell phone.May need to modify to make it possible to send from mobile phone present grouping to MAC layer.The client that presents on proposed equipment specifies unique 6 byte device unique identifiers as the part presenting frame.Present client and also specify 802.11 channels, chip needs to transmit between beacon subsequently to present frame and the time interval on this channel.
