Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating a compressed beacon are described herein. In some aspects, a method of communicating in a wireless network includes transmitting, at an access point, a full beacon at a first multiple of a beacon interval. The method further includes transmitting a compressed beacon at each beacon interval that is not the first multiple of the beacon interval. Another method of communicating in a wireless network includes receiving, at a wireless device, a full beacon at a first multiple of a beacon interval. The method further includes receiving a compressed beacon at a beacon interval that is not the first multiple of the beacon interval.
Abstract:
Aquí se describen sistemas, métodos y dispositivos para comunicar paquetes que tienen una pluralidad de tipos. En algunos aspectos, los paquetes incluyen una cabecera MAC comprimida. En algunos aspectos los paquetes incluyen un cuadro de reconocimiento (ACK). Los campos incluidos en un tipo de paquete particular se pueden basar en el tipo de información que se va a comunicar al dispositivo receptor.

Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating short control frames are described herein. In some aspects, a method of wireless communication includes generating a control frame comprising a physical layer preamble having a signal field, the signal field including an indicator indicating the control frame is a control frame type of frame. The method further includes transmitting the control frame.
Abstract:
A particular method includes receiving a power save polling frame from a station at an access point. The method also includes, in response to receiving the power save polling frame, transmitting a frame from the access point to the station indicating whether traffic associated with the station is buffered at the access point. Another particular method includes transmitting a frame from the station to the access point indicating that the station is to enter the power save mode and refraining from entering the power save mode until receipt of an end of data frame. Yet another particular method includes receiving a fetch trigger frame at an access point and refraining from transmitting one or more fetched data frames from the access point until a fetch time has elapsed or a delivery trigger frame is received. The access point is configured to communicate with other stations during the fetch time.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure propose a method to transmit information in unused fields of a physical layer header to improve performance of the system. The proposed method transmits, during single user transmission, a portion of the basic service set identifier (BSSID) of an access point in a field of a header that is usually used to indicate number of space time streams (Nsts).
Abstract:
Techniques for signaling extended sizes for Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocol Data Unit (MPDU), Aggregated MPDU (A-MPDU) and Aggregated MAC Service Data Unit (A-MSDU) frame formats. A first technique proposes modifications to the current specifications of the IEEE 802.11? standard in order to allow for longer MPDUs in an A-MPDU. This technique reuses the IEEE 802.11? signaling format and utilizes reserved bits to convey the new information, i.e. an indication that the maximum length of a MAC RDU, MPDU frame, of an A-MRDU, or ofan A-MSDU is respectively greater than 4095 bytes. 64 kilobytes and 7935 bytes. The second technique proposes a new signaling mechanism to convey the extended sizes for the MPDU, A-MPDU and the A-MSDU through a very high throughput (VHT) capability element. One or more bits may be added to the delimiter field.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating in a wireless network are provided. In one aspect, a non-zero portion of a node identifier may be used to generate a partial association identifier. If no portion of the node identifier can be determined to be non-zero, then a default value may be used for the partial association identifier. In some other aspects, the partial association identifier may be based on a random number. In some other aspects, a portion of a node identifier is evaluated to determine if it is zero. If the portion is non-zero, a partial association identifier is generated based on the portion. If the portion is zero, a partial association identifier is generated based on the portion.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to communication, and more specifically, to techniques for transmitting data in parallel, such as spatial division multiple access (SDMA) techniques.
Abstract:
A method for switching between channels on different bands is described. Communication with a wireless device occurs on a base channel. A channel switch request is sent to the wireless device. An acknowledgment is received from the wireless device. Communication with the wireless device switches to a 60 GHz channel.
