    Abstract: A wireless device may include a transceiver configured to communicate through a first link and a second link. The wireless device may be configured to indicate, through the transceiver, a number of spatial streams associated with the first link. The wireless device may include one or more radio frequency (RF) chains and may be configured to indicate a sharing capability of the one or more RF chains between the first and second links. The wireless device may be configured to perform a collision avoidance operation based on switching an RF chain from the first link to the second link. The wireless device may be configured use an RF chain on the first link based on the availability of the first link. A method of performing a sounding operation may include initiating a sounding sequence on a link based on a sounding feedback capability of a wireless device.

    Abstract: A method of providing multi-link operation channel access in a multi-link network includes initiating, by a multi-link station, a first backoff countdown and a second backoff countdown associated with a first link and a second link of the multi-link network, respectively, receiving a first frame on the first link, suspending the second backoff countdown, decoding the first frame to identify the first frame as one of an inter-network frame, an intra-network uplink frame, or an intra-network downlink frame, and in response to identifying the first frame as the inter-network frame or the intra-network uplink frame, resuming the second backoff countdown.

    Abstract: A method of providing multi-link operation channel access in a multi-link network includes initiating a first backoff countdown and a second backoff countdown associated with a first link and a second link of the multi-link network, respectively, and in response to the first backoff countdown reaching zero, determining whether the second backoff countdown is less than or equal to an aggregation threshold, and in response to determining that the second backoff countdown is less than or equal to the aggregation threshold, transmitting a first frame and a second frame on the first and second links.
