CA 2705337

Systems and methodologies are described that fa-cilitate transmitting access point types and/or restricted association parameters using broadcast signals, such as beacons, pilot signals, etc. The type or restricted association information can be indicated by one or more intrinsic aspects of the signal, such as specified parameters. In addition, the type or information can be indicated by one or more extrinsic signal aspects, such as frequency, inter-val, periodicity, etc. Using this information, a mobile device can determine whether an access point implements restricted associa-tion. If so, the mobile device can request an access point or related group identifier before determining whether to establish connec-tion therewith. The identifier can be verified against a list of ac-cessible access points and/or groups to make the determination.

Systèmes et méthodologies facilitant la transmission de types de points d'accès et/ou de paramètres d'association restreinte au moyen de signaux de diffusion tels que radio-balises, signaux pilotes, etc. Le type ou l'information d'association restreinte peut être indiqué par un ou plusieurs aspects intrinsèques du signal, tels que des paramètres spécifiés. Le type ou l'information peut en outre être indiqué par un ou plusieurs aspects extrinsèques du signal tels que fréquence, intervalle, prédiodicité, etc. Avec cette information, un dispositif mobile peut déterminer si un point d'accès met en oeuvre une association limitée. Si oui, ce dispositif peut demander un identifiant de point d'accès ou de groupe connexe avant de déterminer s'il faut établir une connexion. A cette fin, l'identifiant peut être vérifié au moyen d'une liste de points d'accès et/ou de groupes d'accès accessibles.
