Base station for a wireless local area network, wireless terminal and program thereof
First Claim
1. A base station for a wireless local area network, connected to at least one wireless terminal through the wireless local area network, comprising:
- table memory means for storing a priority table of data indicative of priority of data set for every application;
first buffer means for buffering data having priority set;
second buffer means for buffering data whose priority is not set;
judge control means for judging priority of received data on the basis of the priority table and outputting data whose priority is set to said first buffer means and the data whose priority is not set to said second buffer means;
beacon signal transmission means for transmitting a beacon signal for synchronizing a communication with said wireless terminal at a constant interval; and
transmission control means for transmitting the data buffered in said first buffer means to a destination at a constant interval by using the beacon signal as a reference and, after the data buffered in said first buffer means is transmitted, transmitting the data buffered in said second buffer means to a destination.

Abstract
A base station comprises table memory means 104 for storing a priority data table 104A indicative of priorities of data set for every application, judge control means 103 for judging priority of received data on the basis of the priority table and outputting data whose priorities are set to first buffer means 105A and the data whose priorities are not set to second buffer means 105B, beacon signal transmission means for transmitting a beacon signal at a constant interval and transmission control means 106 for transmitting the data buffered in the first buffer means to a destination at a constant interval by using the beacon signal as a reference and, after the data buffered in the first buffer means is transmitted, transmitting the data buffered in the second buffer means to a destination.
