Abstract

Multi-Access Point, MAP, technology provides some collaboration between neighbouring APs. Better MAP coordination is sought, in particular with respect to triggering procedures that trigger and allocate resources to other "coordinated" APs. A communication method in a wireless network is proposed that comprises, at a first AP managing a first BSS, sending a MAP Trigger frame allocating resources to a coordinated AP and soliciting a transmission within the allocated resources. A MAP BSRP TF collecting AP needs may precede a MAP MU-RTS TF to protect the medium and a MAP Basic TF to trigger communication for the coordinated APs. Various signalling are proposed to signal MAP type in the Trigger frames as well as to signal resource allocation to coordinated APs.

Abstract

The invention provides new mechanisms that favor discovery of communication groups managed by soft APs, such as P2P Groups controlled by P2P Group Owners. Any station participating in such a communication group notifies an existing AP, e.g., of an infrastructure BSS, about the communication group, to drive that existing AP to advertise about the communication group over its operating channel. In that way, the station solicits discovery assistance to the AP. Other stations operating on the same channel as the AP become aware of the communication group without having to scan multiple channels. They may join the communication group by switching to the operating channel of the targeted group. The assistance of multiple existing APs can be solicited. In particular, multiple APs affiliated to the same AP MLD may advertise about the group, as soon as one of them receives the notification and shares the information with the others.

Abstract

When links of a non-AP MLD become NSTR or EMLSR links and the non-AP MLD performs P2P communications or experiences OBSS interferences over one of the constrained links, it sends a Coexistence link report about the P2P session or the OBSS to the AP MLD. A Channel Usage Request frame can be used. The AP MLD may take actions to the effect of reducing scheduling for the non-AP MLD involved in the P2P session that interferes with the P2P communication or of avoiding scheduling it over the link experiencing OBSS interferences. The AP MLD may avoid scheduling downlink communication to the non-AP MLD over the other constrained link, while the P2P session is on-going on the first constrained link. Actions may also be taken by the AP MLD to release such limitations when the P2P session ends, or when the non- AP MLD become inactive with respect to the P2P session.

Abstract

Two or more trust levels are implemented that allow switching between various encryption keys to obfuscate, using a PRF, PE parameters. An ERCM Key specific to each PE client is derived from a KDK forming part of the PTK: ERCM Key = KDF-Hash-256(KDK, "ERCMK", @MAC_Client || @MAC_AP), wherein the KDF-Hash-256 generates the 256 bits key of the ERCMK, @MAC_Client and @MAC_AP are the MAC addresses of the CPE Client and CPE AP used for 4-way Handshake, "ERCMK" is a context string name for ERCM and is treated as an ASCII string. An alternative ERCM Key known by all CPE Clients is a common group temporal key known by all CPE Clients. It is a 256-bits random value shared during the 4-way Handshake and generated by the AP and encrypted by the KEK of the PTK in the message 3 (with GTK, IGTK and BIGTK).

Abstract

A pair of planar surface portions 6 are provided on two opposite outer wall surfaces of a storage container 1 in the vertical direction, in the horizontal direction, or in the front-rear direction when the storage container is in an installed state. A recessed portion 15 is formed in a portion of at least one of the planar surface portions 16, and is formed so as to be recessed inward from another portion 16a of the planar surface portion 16, and such that at least a portion of the recessed part 15 is in communication with the outside of the planar surface portion 16 in a direction along the planar surface portion 16. A relief valve 11 is provided in the recessed portion 15, and automatically opens when the pressure inside a storage portion 14 for storing a hydrogen carrier exceeds a predetermined value, thereby releasing the gas inside the storage part 14 to the outside. This makes it possible to suppress a rise in the pressure inside the storage container 1 for storing a hydrogen carrier or a by-product, even if multiple storage containers 1 are stored stacked in the vertical direction or laid out in the horizontal direction or the front-rear direction.
