    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide an apparatus for wireless communication. The apparatus includes a transceiver and a processing circuit. The transceiver is configured to receive signals and transmit signals in one or more channels. The processing circuit is configured to detect that received signals in a channel carry a data unit, determine that the data unit belongs to an overlapping basic service set (OBSS) that overlaps with a basic service set (BSS) that the apparatus belongs to without information in a preamble of the data unit, select a clear channel assessment threshold that is dynamically adjusted for spatial re-use when the data unit is determined to belong to the OBSS, and compare a signal strength of the data unit with the selected clear channel assessment threshold to determine a busy/idle status of the channel.

    Abstract: Systems and techniques relating to wireless communications are described. A described technique includes transmitting a signal to cause wireless devices to concurrently transmit sounding packets on different subcarriers within a frequency band during a multi-user uplink transmission; receiving, concurrently, sounding packets from the wireless devices on the different subcarriers within the frequency band during the multi-user uplink transmission; determining subcarrier channel qualities based on the sounding packets; and assigning the subcarriers among the wireless devices for a subsequent multi-user uplink transmission based on the subcarrier channel qualities.

    Abstract: A method for transmitting an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) data unit is described. Respective sub-channels of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communication channel are allocated to first and second communication devices for simultaneous OFDM transmission. A first sub-channel is allocated to the first communication device and a second sub-channel is allocated to the second communication device. Indications of the respective allocated sub-channels are transmitted to the first and second communication devices. A medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (MPDU) is generated that omits i) a MAC address of a transmitter, and ii) a MAC address of the first communication device. An OFDMA data unit including the MPDU is transmitted by the transmitter via the first sub-channel to the first communication device.

    Abstract: A method for transmitting a resource request for an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) transmission is described. A resource request field that indicates buffer information corresponding to queued media access control (MAC) protocol data units (MPDUs) that are queued for transmission by a first communication device is generated. The resource request field includes i) a scale factor subfield that indicates a scale value, and ii) a resource subfield that indicates a base resource value. A resource request MPDU including the resource request field is generated. The resource request MPDU is transmitted to a second communication device via a wireless communication channel to request an allocation of radio resources for the OFDMA transmission. The buffer information is i) a number of bytes indicated by the scale value multiplied by the base resource value, or ii) a transmission opportunity duration indicated by the scale value multiplied by the base resource value.

    Abstract: For a first group of devices having a first group size, a set of block allocations is selected from a codebook. A block allocation for the first group of devices is selected from the selected set of block allocations. A corresponding integer number of different orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) tone blocks is assigned to each device of the first group of devices according to the allocation. An orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) data unit to be transmitted to the first group of devices via the WLAN communication channel is generated using the assigned set of OFDM tone blocks. The OFDMA data unit includes a preamble portion and a data portion, the preamble portion having an index to the codebook that indicates i) the first group size, and ii) the selected block allocation.

    Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques relating to a link layer service platform (LSP) that provides, among other things, assisted multi-band wireless communications are described. A described device includes a first radio to transmit and receive based on a first wireless protocol; a second radio to transmit and receive based on a second wireless protocol, the second wireless protocol being different from the first wireless protocol; and a controller to use the first radio to assist communications via the second radio. The controller can be configured to cause the first radio to transmit, receive, or both one or more control frames associated with the second wireless protocol using the first wireless protocol, and cause the second radio to transmit or receive one or more data frames using the second wireless protocol in accordance with the one or more control frames.

    Abstract: A first format according to which a PHY data unit is to be generated is selected. The data unit is generated according to the first format, including generating a PHY preamble of the PHY data unit to include a first field and a second field. The PHY preamble is generated so that one or more OFDM symbols are rotated by 90 degrees with respect to other OFDM symbols in the PHY preamble to signal the first format. Or, the first field is generated to include a set of bits that according to an error detection scheme that does not conform to a second format; or the set of information bits indicates a mode not supported in connection with the second format. Or, a duplicate of at least one of the first field and the second field is included in the PHY preamble, to signal the first format.
