Abstract:
For example, an apparatus may include logic and circuitry configured to cause a first wireless station to perform a Transmit Sector Sweep (TXSS) protocol with a second wireless station over a directional frequency band using a plurality of antennas of the first wireless station, an antenna of the plurality of antennas of the first wireless station comprising a plurality of sectors; to perform a Receive Sector Sweep (RXSS) protocol with the second wireless station over the directional frequency band using the plurality of antennas of the first wireless station; and, based on the TXSS and RXSS protocols, to configure the plurality of antennas of the first wireless station to communicate a Single-User (SU) Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) transmission with the second wireless station.
