Abstract
A coordinator communication device in a communication network determines that a time period is to begin during which only the coordinator communication device will have opportunities to transmit. The time period includes a plurality of time cycles, each time cycle i) beginning with the coordinator communication device transmitting a beacon signal and ii) including a transmit opportunity that follows the beacon signal. The transmit opportunity is for the coordinator communication device. The coordinator communication device transmits one or more signals to follower communication devices in the communication network to prompt the follower communication devices to refrain from transmitting during the time period. During one or more transmit opportunities of the time period, the coordinator communication device transmits one or more time-sensitive packets.
