Technology Patent Analyst

Peraso's newly allowed patent addresses a significant operational challenge in multi-access point wireless networks. The technology solves the continuity problem that occurs when access points disconnect and reconnect - traditionally requiring full network resets that cause service interruptions.

The patent's seamless recovery mechanism represents meaningful technical differentiation in the competitive wireless infrastructure market. With protection extending to 2042, this creates a nearly 17-year competitive advantage in a specific but important niche of wireless network management.

The technical implementation is particularly noteworthy for its multi-layered approach: automatic detection of lost access points, secure encryption key re-establishment, and maintaining connection performance through station roaming and reconnection logic. These features address reliability challenges that become exponentially more problematic as wireless networks scale.

While not revolutionary, this patent strengthens Peraso's mmWave intellectual property portfolio with practical technology that addresses real-world operational pain points. For a company with Peraso's $2.6 million market capitalization, building proprietary technology assets is essential for long-term competitiveness against larger players in the wireless space.

SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / April 14, 2025 / Peraso Inc. (NASDAQ:PRSO) ("Peraso" or the "Company"), a pioneer in mmWave wireless technology solutions, today announced it has received a Notice of Allowance from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (the "USPTO") for patent application 17/846275 entitled System for Seamless Recovery of Distributed Access Points in a Wireless Local Area Network. Upon issuance of the patent, the claims included in the patent are expected to provide intellectual property protection into 2042.

"Peraso continues to push the boundaries of mmWave wireless communications by solving complex technical challenges and developing advanced solutions to improve real-world performance," said Ron Glibbery, CEO of Peraso. "Intellectual property is a core component of our business, and we are committed to protecting it through a strong and growing patent portfolio. Applying for IP protection is critical, not only to safeguard our work, but to also create long-term value for our customers, partners and shareholders."

This newly allowed patent application addresses Peraso's solutions for a long-standing issue in modern wireless local area networks that are often serviced by a large number of access points: service disruptions caused by the loss and subsequent rejoining or addition of access points in large, distributed wireless systems. Peraso's technology enables seamless reintegration of recovered access points or addition of new access points, eliminating the all-too-common need for a full network reset, significantly improving network resilience. Peraso anticipates the new patent will be formally issued during 2025.

Key aspects of the patent-pending technology include:

• Seamless roaming of stations when a connection to an AP is disrupted

• Real-time detection of lost access points and automatic recognition upon re-established connection

• A secure handshake protocol for re-establishing encryption keys during re-admission of access points

• Automatic reconnection of stations to a recovered and re-integrated ensuring maximum connection performance is maintained
