Abstract:
Methods, devices and systems for jointly encoding allocation information of one or more wireless communication stations in a common portion of a physical layer header are disclosed. In some examples, a wireless device may: generate allocation information associated with one or more wireless communication stations; encode the allocation information into the common portion of the physical layer header; and transmit the physical layer header to the one or more wireless communication stations.

This disclosure describes methods, apparatus, and systems related to a high efficiency signal field encoding structure. A device may determine a communications channel having a bandwidth of a frequency band. The device may determine a first group of subchannels of the bandwidth and a second group of subchannels of the bandwidth. The device may determine a high-efficiency signal field to be transmitted on the communications channel to a first device. The device may encode the high-efficiency signal field using the first group of subchannels and the second group of subchannels. The device may cause to send the high-efficiency signal field to the first device.
Abstract:
In embodiments, apparatuses, methods, and storage media may be described for allocating radio resources to a user equipment (UE) for device to device (D2D) transmission. Specifically, the UE may be configured to predict cellular interference to one or more cellular transmissions in a cell that may be caused by the transmission of a D2D signal. Based on that predicted interference, the UE may identify one or more radio resources in for the D2D transmission.

Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for device-to-device (D2D) distributed scheduling are disclosed herein. User equipment (UE) is configured to measure a received power level for a reference signal received from a target UE and measure received power levels for reference signals received from one or more non-target UEs. The UE is configured to generate a resource usage map for the target UE and the one or more non-target UEs. The UE is configured to determine a priority, with respect to the target UE, for each resource element group based on the resource usage map and an anticipated signal-to-interference ratio (SIR). The UE is configured to transmit data to the target UE during one or more resource element groups with the highest priorities for the target UE.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes methods, apparatus, and systems related to a header compression system. A first computing device comprising one or more processors and one or more transceiver components may determine a Medium Access Control (MAC) frame to be sent to a second computing device, wherein the MAC frame includes one or more MAC Protocol Data Units (MPDUs). The first computing device may determine one or more fields included in the one or more MPDUs. The first computing device may generate a compression control field that includes one or more bits associated with the one or more fields included in the one or more MPDUs. The first computing device may generate the MAC frame to include the compression control field. The first computing device may cause to send the MAC frame to the second computing device.
Abstract:
Methods, computer readable media, and apparatuses are disclosed for spatial reuse. A high efficiency station (HE STA) that includes circuitry is disclosed. The circuitry may be configured to: determine if a link with a wireless device is a D2D link with a spatial reuse opportunity; and transmit a packet that includes an indication that there is the spatial reuse opportunity for the duration of the packet, if the link with the wireless device is the D2D link with the spatial reuse opportunity. The circuitry may be configured to: receive a packet from a second HE STA, where the packet includes an indication that there is a spatial opportunity for the duration of the packet; adjust at least one of the following group: a transmit power and a clear channel assessment parameter; and transmit a second packet to a wireless device in the spatial opportunity in accordance with D2D communication.
Abstract:
Wireless devices, methods, and computer readable media for a high efficiency (HE) signal-A field are disclosed. An apparatus of a HE wireless local area network (HEW) station is disclosed. The apparatus of the HEW station includes circuitry configured to: generate a HE preamble comprising a legacy signal (L-SIG) field followed by a HE-SIG-A1 field, wherein the HE-SIG-A1 field is encoded individually. The circuitry may be further configured to transmit the HE preamble on at least one from the following group: multiple subcarriers of a sub-channel and multiple sub-channels. The circuitry may be configured to transmit the HE preamble with a cyclic prefix (CP) of the HE-SIG-A field that is longer than 0.8 micro-seconds (μs). The circuitry may be configured to indicate enhanced robustness of the packet in a length field of the L-SIG field, a polarization of a repeated L-SIG, and/or a field of the HE-SIG-A.
