    Abstract: Aspects of mmWave beam tracking and beam sweeping are described, for example, spatial searching operations, directional beam forming, complex channel measurement operations, and adaptive power savings. Some aspects include using priori information for mmWave beam tracking and beam sweeping. Some aspects include using priori information to modify a superset of beam criteria to obtain a subset of beam criteria, select a spatial region according to the subset of beam criteria, and initiate a spatial searching operation within the spatial region for establishing a communication link. Some aspects include obtaining complex channel measurements of beams and combining the measurements with priori information to determine a beam for use in a communication link. Some aspects include providing signals from Nr over K1 input/output (IO) links and receiving signals over K1 IO links, and combining signals received over the K1 IO links, using a compression matrix, to generate signals over K IO links.

    Abstract: Methods and devices are described for enabling different transmission modes that include full-duplex modes in a wireless network are described. A medium access control layer design is described that enables evaluation of interferences that would result from a transmission mode in order to facilitate decision making by the network access point and the wireless stations associated therewith in selecting a particular transmission mode. Signaling techniques for setting up the different transmission techniques are also described.

    Abstract: Methods adapted for measuring interference in joint communications and Access Points (APs) are described. The interference can be between the AP and first and second communication stations (STAs). In a method to measure interference, a first communication between the AP and the first STA can be established. Further, a second communication between the AP and the second STA can be established. The second communication can include transmitting a null data packet (NDP) to the second STA based on the first communication to measure STA-to-STA inference between the first STA and the second STA.

    Abstract: A client station (STA), when operating in a wireless network, receives data sent by an access point (AP) on a first channel comprising at least one subchannel. During reception of the data on the first channel, the STA monitors channel availability of an additional set of one or more subchannels. In response to a detected availability of at least one newly-available subchannel, the STA sends at least one notification to the AP identifying STA-side availability of the newly-available subchannel(s). The STA subsequently receives data from the AP on the newly-available subchannel(s), which is sent in response to the at least one notification. The AP, when communicating data to the STA, receives the at least one notification from the STA and, in response thereto, initiates data transmission on one or more of the newly-available channel(s).
