First radio capable device, access point and methods for handling access to a wireless medium

摘要

A method performed in a wireless communication network for handling access of a first radio capable device, to a wireless medium in the wireless communication network. The wireless communication network prioritizes the first radio capable device over a second radio capable device for accessing the wireless medium based on a respective type of the first radio capable device and the second radio capable device. The first radio capable device is of a first type with an energy harvesting capacity or an energy harvesting capacity with a battery capacity below or equal a threshold, and the second radio capable device is of a second type with a non-energy harvesting capacity or an energy harvesting capacity with a battery capacity above the threshold.
