Abstract:
Systems and methods for wireless communications are disclosed. More particularly, aspects generally relate to techniques for indicating a minimum and maximum channel bandwidth in a frame (e.g., short frame). One or more bits in the frame, for example a management frame, may indicate both minimum and maximum bandwidths for communicating in the network. According to aspects, a wireless terminal may determine the minimum and maximum bandwidths for communicating in the network based on a mapping of different values of the one or more bits to combinations of minimum and maximum bandwidths. While any field in the frame may indicate the minimum and maximum bandwidth, according to aspects, the Basic Service Set (BSS) bandwidth (BW) field may be used for the indication.
