WIRELESS NETWORK SYSTEM AND METHOD OF TRANSMITTING OR RECEIVING DATA OVER WIRELESS NETWORK
First Claim
1. A wireless network station comprising:
- an identification unit which determines a state of network with reference to a beacon frame of a received superframe;
a generation unit which generates a packet which comprises an accepting command based on a result of the determination by the identification unit; and
a communication unit which transmits the packet which comprises the accepting command through a communication channel,wherein the identification unit determines whether the accepting command can be transmitted with reference to the beacon frame which indicates whether the accepting command which is transmitted by a wireless network station on or participating in the network can be transmitted.

Abstract
A wireless network system and a method of transmitting or receiving data over a wireless network capable of limiting transmission or reception of request packets by stations existing on the wireless network, where directional communication is performed in a high-frequency bandwidth, while a wireless network coordinator is being changed or while the wireless network coordinator is in a busy state. The wireless network station includes an identification unit which determines a state of network with reference to a beacon frame of a received superframe; a generation unit which generates a packet which includes an accepting command based on a result of the determination by the identification unit; and a communication unit which transmits the packet which includes the accepting command through a communication channel, wherein the identification unit determines whether the accepting command can be transmitted with reference to the beacon frame which indicates whether the accepting command which is transmitted by a wireless network station on or participating in the network can be transmitted.
