This disclosure describes methods, device, and systems related to power control. A first device comprising one or more processors and one or more transceiver components may identify a trigger frame received from a second device, the trigger frame comprising one or more fields. The first device may select a resource unit of an operating channel in accordance with Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) standard. The first device may measure a power level of a first field of the trigger frame. The first device may determine a transmit power level based at least in part on measuring the power level of the first field. The first device may cause to send to the second device, one or more signals based at least in part on the transmit power level.

Certain embodiments of the invention may include systems, methods, and apparatus for a short beacon in low rate Wi-Fi communications. According to an example embodiment of the invention, a method is provided for generating a short beacon. The method can include generating a short beacon frame for transmission at a selectable beacon interval. The short beacon frame includes: a beacon timestamp field, a service set identifier (SSID) field, and one or more capability fields; and generating a traffic indicator map (TIM) frame for transmission at a selectable TIM interval. The TIM frame includes a TIM timestamp field, a check beacon field, and a TIM; and converting the short beacon frame and the TIM frame for wireless transmission over a hardware transmission medium.

Embodiments of the disclosure relate to operational association between communication devices in the presence of a link-budget imbalance between an upstream link and a downstream link at one of the communication devices. The association relies on a request for a narrowband resource block sent form the communication device having the link-budget imbalance to a remote communication device that can schedule and/or allocate the narrowband resource block. The request can be modulated according to an on-off keying modulation scheme or can be encoded according to a multi-repetition encoding scheme. In response to the narrowband resource block being allocated, an association request can be sent to the remote communication device in the narrowband resource block.

Methods, devices and a computer-readable medium are disclosed for subcarrier allocation to multiple users in wireless local-area networks in accordance with orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA). A high-efficiency wireless local-area network (HEW) master device is disclosed. The HEW master device includes circuitry configured to transmit data to a plurality of HEW devices, in accordance with OFDMA, on a plurality of noncontiguous sub-channels. Each noncontiguous sub-channel may be a plurality of subcarriers across a bandwidth. A HEW device is disclosed. The HEW device may include circuitry configured to transmit data to a HEW master device, in accordance with OFDMA and a resource map, on a noncontiguous sub-channel over a bandwidth. The circuitry may be further configured to transmit the noncontiguous subcarriers at a greater power level than a regulatory power level for the plurality of interlaced subcarriers if the plurality of interlaced subcarriers were contiguous.

Generally, arrangements for enabling direct medium access control (MAC) sublayer data frames are described herein. Embodiments may comprise logic such as hardware and/or code to reduce the size of a packet by determining a frame in the MAC sublayer, inserting the frame in the signal field of a preamble to transmit, transmitting the direct MAC data frame as a packet, communicating that the packet is a direct MAC data frame, and parsing and interpreting the direct MAC data frame at the receiving device. Embodiments may determine and transmit and/or receive and interpret direct MAC data frames.

Examples are disclosed for providing flexible clear channel assessment (CCA) detection thresholds in a wireless local access network (WLAN). In some examples, an apparatus for dynamically setting a clear channel assessment (CCA) threshold in a wireless local area network (WLAN) may comprise a processor component, a radio coupled to the processor component, and logic for execution by the processor component to establish a CCA threshold for a wireless channel of the WLAN, send a first wireless message to one or more wireless station (STA) devices in wireless proximity to the apparatus informing the one or more STA devices of the established CCA threshold and instructing the one or more STA devices to avoid CCA levels exceeding the CCA threshold on the wireless channel and send a second wireless message to a wireless access point (AP) device associated with the apparatus informing the AP device of the established CCA threshold and instructing the AP device to broadcast use of the CCA threshold on the wireless channel. Other examples are described and claimed.

Wireless devices, methods, and computer readable media for transmitting and receiving beacon frames are disclosed. A HEW device may include circuitry configured to: operate in accordance with OFDMA on a plurality of subchannels and a primary channel, and transmit a first beacon on the primary channel to one or more legacy devices. The circuitry may be further configured to transmit a second beacon on the plurality of subchannels to one or more HEW devices. The first beacon may be an 802.11 legacy beacon and the second beacon may be a HEW beacon. A HEW device may include circuitry configured to: tune to an assigned subchannel; and receive a HEW beacon on the assigned subchannel. The circuitry may be configured to: enter a power saving mode; leave the power saving mode; and receive another HEW beacon on the assigned subchannel to synchronize the HEW device with the AP.

Logic may determine a first frame comprising a hopping pattern value and a target hopping time (THT). The hopping pattern may indicate a pattern of channels to which to hop. Logic may determine a clear-to-send (CTS) frame comprising a duration value indicative of a duration of a data transmission. Logic may transmit the first frame on at least a primary channel of the channels. Logic may transmit the CTS frame prior to transmitting the data transmission on the one or more channels in accordance with the hopping pattern, each channel having a bandwidth of at least 450 megahertz and being within in a 6 gigahertz to 10 gigahertz frequency band. Logic may receive a frame on at least a primary channel of the channels. Logic may receive CTS frames at the THT in accordance with the hopping pattern.

Logic such as hardware and/or code to narrow available sub-channels in frequency selective transmission communications in which a station selects a narrow band from a wider channel bandwidth. A frequency selective transmission scheme for communications devices may select a 1 or 2 MHz channel from a wider channel bandwidth (e.g., 4, 8, 16 MHz) that consists of a number of 1 or 2 MHz sub-channels and transmitting packets on the selected sub-channel. The access point may narrow the number of sub-channels available for selection by stations. Stations may narrow the number of sub-channels. Both the AP and the stations may operate to narrow the number of sub-channels. A medium access control sub-layer protocol common to the communications devices may facilitate a frequency selective transmission scheme.

Embodiments of an access point and method for high-efficiency WLAN (HEW) communication are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the access point may be configured to operate as a master station and may configure an HEW frame to include a legacy signal field (L-SIG), an HEW signal field (HEW SIG-A) following the L-SIG, and one or more HEW fields following the HEW SIG-A. The L-SIG may be configured for transmission using a legacy number of data subcarriers, a legacy number of pilot subcarriers and a number of additional reference subcarriers modulated with a known reference sequence. At least one symbol of the HEW SIG-A and the one or more HEW fields following the HEW SIG-A of the HEW frame may be configured for transmission using additional data subcarriers. The additional data subcarriers may correspond to the additional reference subcarriers of the L-SIG.
