    Abstract: A method and apparatus may provide multi-user parallel channel access (MU-PCA) and/or single-user parallel channel access (SU-PCA) using transmit and/or receive with symmetrical bandwidth, in the downlink (DL), uplink (UL), or combined DL and UL. SU-PCA and MU-PCA may support unequal modulation and coding schemes (MCS) and unequal transmit power. Medium access control (MAC) layer, Physical layer (PHY), and mixed and PHY layer methods and procedures may support UL, DL and combined UL and DL SU-PCA and MU-PCA using transmit and/or receive with symmetrical bandwidth. MU-PCA and/or SU-PCA may also be supported by MAC and PHY layer designs and procedures for downlink, uplink and combined uplink and downlink using transmit/receive with asymmetrical bandwidth.

    Abstract: Methods, devices and systems are provided for performing for multi-user (MU) transmission. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may be configured to receive a frame, decode the received frame and determine whether the received frame is a null data packet (NDP) multi-user (MU) media access control (MAC) physical layer convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) (NDP MU MAC PPDU) based on meeting an NDP condition. The NDP MU MAC PPDU may correspond to an MU transmission and may include a PLCP header which includes an NDP signal (SIG) field having MU control information. Based on the received frame meeting the NDP condition, the WTRU may be further configured to process the NDP SIG field, generate a response based on the NDP SIG field and the MU control information, and transmit the response.

    Abstract: Dynamic puncturing in a wireless local area network (WLAN) supporting 320 MHz bandwidths is disclosed. In one example, a method includes a first station (STA1) transmitting a null data packet announcement (NDPA) frame including an indicator of an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) subchannel puncturing over a wireless medium and subsequently transmitting a null data packet (NDP) having a U-SIG field specifying an OFDMA puncturing pattern. The NDPA may indicate that the subsequent NDP, which preferably occupies an 80 MHz channel, includes the OFDMA puncturing pattern in its U-SIG field. The method may further include transmitting a beamforming report poll (BFRP) soliciting measurement by the receiving station (STA2) on active resources, e.g., subchannels which have not been punctured. STA2 may transmit a beamforming report (BFR) in response to the BFRP, the BFR including measurements of active resources excluding subchannels inactive due to static OFDMA puncturing or dynamic OFDMA puncturing.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described herein for rediscovery and medium access for wake-up radios. For example, a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) may receive, via a first transceiver, a frame that includes a wake-up radio (WUR) operation element having a first counter value. The WTRU may deactivate the first transceiver and activate a second transceiver, wherein the first transceiver enters into a doze state and the second transceiver is in an awake state. The WTRU may then receive, via the second transceiver in the awake state, a WUR frame that includes a second counter value indicating an update of a plurality of basic server set (BSS) parameters associated with the first transceiver. On a condition that the second counter value is different than the first counter value, the WTRU may activate the first transceiver to update the plurality of BSS parameters, wherein the first transceiver enters into an awake state.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for multi-link (ML) steering and control in wireless local area network (WLAN) are disclosed. A station (STA) multi-link device (MLD) may communicate over a plurality of links. The STA MLD may receive, from an access point (AP) MLD, on a first link of the plurality of links, a first frame comprising a ML element, where the ML element includes pausing information indicating a period of time during which the STA MLD will pause transmission and reception on the first link. The STA MLD may send, to the AP MLD, on a second link of the plurality of links and during the indicated period of time, uplink (UL) traffic, wherein the first link and the second link are multi-directional links. The STA MLD may be non-simultaneous transmit and receive (non-STR), and the AP MLD may be capable of STR.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for interference awareness in wireless communication systems. A wireless station (STA) may detect an interference event comprising a transmission that will interfere or is interfering with a communication session of the STA with a second device, such as an access point (AP). The first device may transmit, to the second device, an identification of the interference event. The first device may receive, from the second device, a selection of an operation mode of a plurality of modes, transmitted responsive to receipt of the identification of the interference event. The first device may continue the communication session, with the second device, utilizing the selected operation mode.

    Abstract: A method performed by a multi-multi-link device (MMLD) architecture comprising a plurality of access points (APs) may comprise transmitting a frame, by an AP of the MMLD, wherein the frame may include a multi-multi-link device (MMLD) frame element which indicates that the AP is part of a multi-link device (MLD) that is a MMLD. The frame may comprise a beacon, short beacon, probe response, fast initial link setup (FILS) discovery frame, association response frame, or the like, or any appropriate combination thereof. The MMLD element may comprise one or more of an element identifier, length, MMLD identifier, MMLD media access control (MAC) address, partial reporting field, number of reported MLDs field and/or an MLD info field. The MLD may communicate with other MLDs of the multiple MLDs during a transmit wake time (TWT) service period (SP). The MLD may be in a doze state during non-TWT SPs.
