Abstract: For example, a wireless communication station (STA) may be configured to determine whether a stream of frames is suitable for out-of-order delivery from a first Medium Access Control layer (MAC-layer) process to a second MAC-layer process, the second MAC-layer process is above the first MAC-layer process; and, based on a determination that the stream of frames is suitable for out-of-order delivery, to deliver to the second MAC-layer process one or more frames of the stream of frames according to an out-of-order delivery scheme.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to null data packet (NDP) feedback report. A device may cause to send an NDP feedback report frame to one or more station devices, wherein the NDP feedback report frame comprises one or more resource allocations. The device may identify an allocation response using a first allocation of the one or more resource allocations from a first station device. The device may determine to assign one or more timeslots as contention based resources based on the allocation response.

Abstract: An extremely high-throughput (EHT) station (STA) may encode a null data packet (NDP) announcement frame for transmission to include a high-efficiency (HE) subfield and a Ranging subfield in a Sounding Dialogue Token field. To identify the NDP announcement frame as an EHT NDP announcement frame (i.e., an EHT variant), the EHT STA may set both the HE subfield and the Ranging subfield in the Sounding Dialogue Token field to a value of one. When operating as an EHT access point (AP), the EHT STA may encode a trigger frame to include a Special User Info Field. The Special User Info Field may be identified by a predetermined value as an STA association identifier (AID) value. The use of the predetermined value as the AID value in the Special User Info Field indicates that the trigger frame is an EHT variant and indicates that the trigger frame is being sent by an EHT AP.

Abstract: Embodiments of an access point (AP), station (STA) and method of communication are generally described herein. The STA may determine a portion of a channel occupied by an incumbent device. The STA may refrain from communication in a first subset of resource units (RUs) that overlap the portion of the channel occupied by the incumbent device. The STA may determine a combined RU that comprises two or more RUs of a second subset of RUs that do not overlap the portion of the channel occupied by the incumbent device. The STA may encode a physical layer convergence procedure protocol data unit (PPDU) for transmission in the combined RU. The PPDU may be encoded in accordance with joint coding across the RUs of the combined RU.

Abstract: Various embodiments are generally directed to parameter encoding techniques for wireless communication networks. In various embodiments, a transmitting device may communicate a plurality of wireless communication parameter values using a single index value comprised in a field of a header or frame. In various embodiments, a receiving device may use the index value to identify the plurality of wireless communication parameter values by consulting mapping information specifying mappings of possible index values to respective sets of parameter values. In some embodiments, the mapping information may specify mappings associated with a defined mapping scheme.

Abstract: The application relates to a preemption mechanism for wireless local area networks (WLANs), and in particular provides a method, including: broadcasting information about a Transmission Opportunity (TXOP) on a wireless channel, wherein the TXOP includes two or more transmission durations and a preemption period exists between any two neighboring transmission durations of the two or more transmission durations; and pausing communicating on the wireless channel during the preemption period to give opportunity for one or more stations (STAs) to preempt the wireless channel to transmit high priority traffic.
