    Abstract: The present disclosure provides techniques for configuring the utilization of request-to-send/clear-to-send (RTS/CTS) protocol procedures based on varying conditions at the STA. For example, an AP may identify one or more conditions, when satisfied, may trigger the STA to either enable or disable uplink (UL) transmissions associated with a RTS/CTS protocol procedure. In some aspects, an AP may determine a transmit opportunity (TXOP) threshold for an STA and may determine whether to broadcast a message having the TXOP threshold to multiple STAs including the STA or unicast the message to the STA. An STA may receive a message from an AP having a TXOP threshold and may replace, based on an indication in the received message, a current TXOP threshold in the STA with the TXOP threshold in the received message. The STA may transmit an UL RTS frame in response to a determination that a planned TXOP duration satisfies the TXOP threshold.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for an AP. The AP determines a time duration associated with a validity of a first broadcast TWT parameter set associated with a broadcast TWT schedule identified by a first ID. The AP generates the first broadcast TWT parameter set to identify the determined time duration. The first broadcast TWT parameter set includes at least four bits identifying the determined time duration. The AP transmits a management frame including the generated first broadcast TWT parameter set. The time duration may indicate a number of intervals for which the first broadcast TWT parameter set is valid. Each interval of the intervals may be a beacon interval corresponding to a beacon frame, or may be a DTIM interval corresponding to a beacon frame that includes a DTIM.

    Abstract: Example methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable mediums for wireless communication are provided. In one example, a first device may be configured to determine whether to allow unscheduled access to the first device by a second device. The first device may be configured to transmit, based on the determination, first information to the second device. The first information may include a first indication indicative of whether the second device is allowed to transmit to the first device outside of a scheduled access period, or a second indication indicative of whether the second device is allowed to transmit to the first device without first receiving a trigger.
