Abstract:
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, devices, systems and methods of determining one or more link adaptation parameters. For example, an apparatus may be configured to process a first message from a wireless station, the first message including location information corresponding to a location of the wireless station, and an Access Point (AP) identifier to identify an AP; to query a Location-Based Link Status (LB-LS) database (DB) for radio link information corresponding to the AP and to the location; to determine, based on the radio link information, one or more link adaptation parameters corresponding to a wireless link between the AP and the wireless station at the location; and to send to the wireless station a second message comprising the one or more link adaptation parameters.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present disclosure describe methods and apparatuses for selective application of cyclic shift diversity in uplink communications of mobile communication systems. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for leveraging Bluetooth (BT) or Bluetooth low energy (BLE) technologies to conserve energy in multi-mode devices. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to synchronizing a first wireless platform with a second wireless platform by exchanging Wi-Fi synchronization information through BT packets. Each of the first and the second wireless platforms may have integrated Wi-Fi (or other communication modalities) with a BT radio. In one embodiment of the disclosure, the Wi-Fi communication modes are kept at sleep mode while the BT modalities exchange synchronization information.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to enhanced fine timing measurement protocol negotiation. A device may identify an enhanced fine timing measurement request received from a first device, the enhanced fine timing measurement request comprising one or more information elements associated with one or more multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) parameters. The device may cause to send an enhanced fine timing measurement response to the first device. The device may identify a null data packet announcement associated with a location determination of the first device. The device may identify a null data packet received from the first device. The device may cause to send a null data packet feedback to the first device
Abstract:
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to using protected beacon frames in wireless communications. A device may determine a beacon management element of a beacon frame body and may determine an integrity group key identifier of the beacon management element, wherein the integrity group key identifier is associated with a basic service set (BSS). The device may determine, based on the integrity group key identifier, a management integrity check (MIC) field of the beacon management element. The device may generate a beacon frame including the beacon frame body. The device may send the beacon frame.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to link aggregation between devices. A device may identify multiband capabilities associated with a first device. The device may determine a frequency band of the first device based at least in part on the multiband capabilities. The device may initiate multiband link aggregation on one or more interfaces, wherein a first interface of the one or more interfaces is associated with the frequency band of the first device. The device may cause to establish a connection with a second device using a second interface of the one or more interface.
Abstract:
An exemplary aspect is directed toward methods, apparatus, and systems related to spatial reuse with overlapping basic service set. A device may determine an overlapping basic service set (OBSS) associated with one or more access points. The device may then reduce a transmit power by a first margin. The device may then increase a packet detection threshold associated with the OBSS by a second margin. The device then sends an uplink data frame to at least one of the one or more access points.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes methods, apparatuses, and wireless stations related to waking up low power radios. In particular, a wireless station is disclosed that may identify a first management frame from a first wireless station a first management frame from a first wireless station. The wireless station may cause to allocate one or more group identifications (IDs) to the first wireless station. The wireless station may cause to generate a bitmap corresponding to the allocation of the one or more group IDs to the first wireless station. The wireless station may cause to send a second management frame to the first wireless station of one or more wireless stations, wherein the second management frame comprises the bitmap.
Abstract:
A legacy WiFi communication may contain information to permit a receiver to know of the presence of a parallel new band (NB) communication, and to receive that information in time to know how to receive the NB communication. In various embodiments, this information may be contained in the L-SIG, RL-SIG, and/or HE-SIG-A subfields of a single user PPDU, or in the L-SIG, RL-SIG, HE-SIG-A, and/or HE-SIG-B subfields of a multi-user PPDU.
