Abstract

A method and corresponding system for communicating between stations (102A, 102B, 104A, 104B, 104C) in a network (100) are presented. The method includes providing repeated beacon transmissions (402) from a coordinator station for coordinating transmissions among a plurality of the stations; transmitting from a first station to a second station during a time slot assigned to the first station by at least one of the beacon transmissions; and transmitting from the first station information that grants permission to the second station to transmit during at least a portion (610) of a time slot assigned to the first station.
