Abstract:
Various embodiments are generally directed to an apparatus, method and other techniques for performing neighbor awareness network (NAN) discovery operations to discover a NAN cluster comprising one or more devices synchronized to a discovery window. In some embodiments, the NAN discovery operation may include communicating a cluster discovery message to join the NAN cluster, waiting a first time period for a response to the cluster discovery message, and joining the NAN cluster based on information in the response to synchronize to the discovery window when the response is received within the first time period. Various embodiments may also include disabling, by the processing circuitry, one or more operations to perform the NAN discovery operations if the response is not received within the first time period.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and computer-readable media related to employing rate adaptation in full-duplex communication. A first computing device may establish with a second computing device a full-duplex communication channel that may have a forward data transmission direction and a reverse data transmission direction. The first computing device may transmit to the second computing device a first data portion in the forward data transmission direction of the full-duplex communication channel at a default data transmission rate. The first computing device may receive a second data portion in the reverse direction of the full-duplex communication channel that may contain a forward channel quality information (CQI) associated with the forward data transmission direction. The first computing device may transmit to the second computing device a third data portion at a first data transmission rate, wherein the first data transmission rate is based at least in part on the forward CQI contained in the second data portion.
Abstract:
Embodiments of a wireless communication device and method for short frame indication in an IEEE 802.11ah network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a reserved bit in a service field is used to indicate whether a frame is using a short MAC header or a regular MAC header.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to ultra-low latency (ULL). A device may generate a first frame to be sent on a first link in a multi-link operation (MLO) with an multi-link device (MLD). The device may generate a second frame to be sent on a second link in the MLO with the MLD. The device may divide the first frame and the second frame into a first plurality of segments and a second plurality of segments separated by one or more first and second time gaps, respectively. The device may indicate to a first station device having a ULL packet to initiate a transmission of the ULL packet during an earliest time gap on the first link. The device may cause to send the one or more first and second plurality of segments on the first link and second link respectively.
Abstract:
Logic to determine a first set of packets for transmission to a second STA in an aggregated medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (A-MPDU). Logic to identify a retransmission scheme to determine a first number of packets to transmit based on the first set of packets. Logic to generate network coded packets for transmission in the A-MPDU, wherein the network coded packets comprise encoded combinations of the first set of packets. Logic to generate the A-MPDU for transmission to the second STA with the first number of packets. Logic to cause transmission of the A-MPDU. And logic to receive a block acknowledgement (BlockAck) comprising a feedback value, wherein the feedback value is a number of additional network coded packets requested by the second STA to decode the first set of packets or a number of packets received by the second STA.
Abstract:
A method of wireless communication comprising decoding in a physical layer circuitry a received wireless signal; outputting a corresponding wireless signal data as one or more data packets, the wireless signal data representing the received wireless signal; determining one or more packet header parameters of the one or more data packets; and if any of the one or more packet header parameters equal any of one or more predetermined values, instruct a medium access control layer circuitry to switch from an inactive mode to an active mode.
Abstract:
Embodiments of an Extremely High Throughput Station (EHT STA) (STA1) configured for operating in a next-generation (NG) wireless local area network (WLAN) are described herein. In some embodiments, the EHT STA encodes a common signal field (SIG) (Coex-SIG) of an EHT PPDU to include a TXOP duration field. The TXOP duration field is more than seven bits to indicate an actual TXOP duration of a transmission from the EHT STA comprising the EHT PPDU transmitted to a second station (STA2). Decoding the TXOP duration field of the EHT PPDU by a third-party station (STA4) causes the third-party station (STA4) to defer a transmission until after an end of the transmission from the second station (STA2).
Abstract:
Embodiments of an AP and wake up radio (WUR) non-AP station (STA) are generally described herein. The AP may transmit a WUR packet to wake up a wireless local area network (WLAN) radio of the WUR non-AP STA. A non-WUR portion of the WUR packet may include legacy fields and a BPSK mark to spoof high throughput (HT) devices receiving the WUR packet. The AP may transmit the BPSK mark in a channel that includes a lower guard band, a transmission bandwidth, and an upper guard band. The AP may encode the BPSK mark in accordance with: on-off keying (OOK) modulation in a center portion of the transmission bandwidth; and orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) in a remaining portion of the transmission bandwidth that excludes the center portion.
