    Abstract: Computer readable media, methods, and apparatuses for location estimation using multi-user multiple-input multiple-output in a wireless local-area network are disclosed. An apparatus is disclosed comprising processing circuitry configure to: encode a fine timing measurement (FTM) initiate (FTI) frame, the FTI frame comprising M0 message uplink resource allocations for a plurality of responders to transmit M0 messages to the HE STA. The processing circuitry further configured to configure the HE STA to transmit the FTI frame to the plurality of responders, and decode M0 messages from the plurality of responders in accordance with the M0 message uplink resource allocations, where the M0 messages are to be received at the HE STA at times T2 in accordance with multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO). The processing circuitry further configured to acknowledge the M0 messages to be transmitted at a time T3, and decode M1 messages comprising a corresponding time T1 and time T4.

    Abstract: An apparatus of a wireless communications device to transmit a sounding announcement frame (SAF) for use in a round-trip estimation to a receiving station, and associated method are provided. The apparatus is configured to encode an encoded field of the SAF that is one of a frame control field (FCF) or a sounding dialog token field (SDTF) of a null data packet announcement (NDPA) packet that forms the SAF to indicate to the receiving station that a communication different from a trigger frame may follow. The apparatus is also configured to configure the wireless device to transmit the NDPA packet to one or more stations.

    Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to efficient poll response frame in wireless communications. A device may cause to send a multiuser location trigger frame of subtype poll to one or more initiating station devices (ISTAs) in a multi-user trigger-based range measurement during a polling phase. The device may identify a first clear to send (CTS) frame received from a first ISTA of the one or more ISTAs during the polling phase. The device may identify a second CTS frame received from a second ISTA of the one or more ISTAs during the polling phase. The device may determine the identity of a first ISTA based on information comprised in the first CTS frame received from the first ISTA. The device may determine the identity of the second ISTA based on information comprised in the second CTS frame received from the second ISTA.
