Samsung patents Wi-Fi method for negotiating data quality profiles
Samsung describes a method where a Wi-Fi device sends a list of desired data quality settings to a router. The router then replies to accept or reject specific settings, allowing the two devices to agree on how to handle data traffic.
In the filing’s own words
Methods and systems for a dynamic SCS negotiation procedure. A method includes transmitting, to an associated AP device, a request frame that includes a plurality of quality of service (QoS) profiles Each QoS profile of the plurality of QoS profiles includes one or more QoS characteristics elements and is identified by a unique QoS profile identifier (ID). The plurality of QoS profiles are grouped within the request frame. The method also includes receiving, from the AP device, a response frame where the response frame indicating SUCCESS or REJECT of one or more of the plurality of QoS profiles.
What exactly they claim (claim 1)
1. A method performed by a non-access point (AP) station (STA), the method comprising: transmitting, to an associated AP device, a request frame that includes a plurality of quality of service (QoS) profiles, wherein each QoS profile of the plurality of QoS profiles: includes one or more QoS characteristics elements; and is identified by a unique QoS profile identifier (ID), wherein the plurality of QoS profiles are listed within the request frame; and receiving, from the AP device, a response frame where the response frame indicating SUCCESS or REJECT of one or more of the plurality of QoS profiles.
