WIRELESS TRANSMISSION APPARATUS AND RELATED WIRELESS TRANSMISSION METHOD
First Claim
1. A wireless transmission apparatus for broadcasting packets to a plurality of receiving devices, the wireless transmission apparatus comprising:
- a transmitter, for broadcasting packets to the receiving devices;
a receiver, for receiving signals transmitted from any one of the receiving devices; and
an estimation circuit, coupled to the receiver for determining whether each of the receiving devices is suitable for receiving the packets broadcasted by the wireless transmission apparatus according to the signals transmitted from the receiving devices and a recipient condition and for determining each one of the receiving devices that is suitable for receiving the packets broadcasted by the wireless transmission apparatus as a target receiving device, the estimation circuit comprising;
a signal quality estimation circuit, for generating a plurality of estimation results according to the signals transmitted from the receiving devices, each of the estimation results corresponds to a receiving quality of each receiving device while receiving the packets broadcasted by the wireless transmission apparatus;
a control circuit, coupled to the signal quality estimation circuit, for determining whether each of the receiving devices is the target receiving device or not according to each estimation result and the recipient condition; and
a storage unit, coupled to the control circuit, for storing information of at least one of the target receiving devices;
wherein the wireless transmission apparatus determines whether at least one of the target receiving devices needs to retrieve a broadcasted packet again according to the information and the signals transmitted from the at least one of the target receiving devices and rebroadcasts the broadcasted packet again if needed.
