Abstract:
Some demonstrative embodiments include devices, systems and/or methods of controlling access to location sources. For example, a device may include a location caching controller to store cached location information in a cache based on location information retrieved from two or more location sources, to receive at least one location request from at least one application, to select between retrieving requested location information from at least one of the location sources and retrieving the requested location information from the cache, and to provide to the application a location response including the requested location information.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for estimating channel tap delays of multipath components in a CDMA received signal. The search for the tap delays are split into two phases namely, a phase 1 and a phase 2 search. The phase 1 search is a coarse resolution quick search adapted to generate a rough estimate of the location of the tap delays. During this phase, the candidate codes are summed and the input signal correlated with the code sum creating an ambiguity in the code associated with the multipath. A finer resolution slower phase 2 search resolves the code ambiguity present in the initial rough estimates of the phase 1 search. Additional phase 2 correlations may be performed to implement a code-tracking loop.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for performing a radix-4 fast Hadamard transform (FHT) with reduced complexity and for directly determining the maximum output of a fast Hadamard transform using either a radix-4 transform or radix-2 transform without actually generating the outputs. The radix-4 fast Hadamard transform is implemented using only seven operations. To find the maximum value of the output of a fast Hadamard transform and its corresponding index, the N−1 stages of a conventional N stage fast Hadamard transform are computed while a find-maximum stage is inserted in place of the Nth stage. The invention also provides a methodology for constructing fast Hadamard transforms of the form H2N using radix-4 FHTs and permuting the results to achieve the correct outputs.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to multi-link operation. A device may configure a single N×N transmit (TX)/receive (RX) radio to a plurality of 1×1 TX/RX radios, where N is a positive integer. The device may monitor a first channel of a plurality of channels to determine its availability. The device may monitor a second channel of the plurality of channels to determine its availability. The device may identify a first control frame received from an access point (AP) multi-link device (MLD) on the second channel. The device may cause to send a second control frame to the AP MLD on the second channel. The device may configure back to a single N×N TX/RX radio to receive a data frame.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to security for multi-link operations. A multi-link device (MLD) may establish a first communication link between a first device of the MLD and a first device of a second MLD, and a second communication link between a second device of the MLD and a second device of the second MLD. The MLD may generate a group-addressed message. The MLD may protect the group-addressed message using a first key or a first integrity key. The MLD may protect the group-addressed message using a second key or a second integrity key. The MLD may send, using the first communication link, the group-addressed message protected using the first key or the first integrity key, and may send, using the second communication link, the group-addressed message protected using the second key or the second integrity key.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for channelization of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) networks in a wireless network are disclosed. An apparatus of an of a next generation vehicle to everything (V2X) (NGV) wireless device includes processing circuitry configured to: encode a management frame, the management frame including an indication of resource units (RUs) for use by NGV stations during transmission opportunities (TXOPs) where the RUs part of a channel. The processing circuitry is further configured to configure the NGV wireless device to transmit the management frame on the channel and configure the NGV wireless device to transmit a short sequence frame (SF) at a start of each TXOP of the TXOPs. An apparatus for V2X networks is disclosed that is configured to transmit a packet in center tones of a channel and to simultaneously transmit parity or redundancy information for the packet on tones on either side of the center tones.

A device may send a downlink frame including a first indication of a triggered direct peer-to-peer capability. The device may identify an uplink frame received from a station device. The device may determine that the uplink frame includes a second indication of the triggered direct peer-to-peer capability. The device may send a trigger frame during a transmission opportunity associated with the device, the trigger frame including a third indication of the triggered direct peer-to-peer capability.
Abstract:
Systems, apparatus, and methods to pair a set of accessory devices with a source device through use of a unique device set identifier. Embodiments include a source device adapted to obtain a device set identifier from a device that is part of a set of devices, from a tag, dongle, or code associated with the set of devices, or from a package or carton containing one or more devices of the set of devices, and then automatically pair the source device with each device. Embodiments include a registration process facilitated by the unique device set identifier. The device set identifier including information corresponding to the devices in the set of devices to facilitate registration of the devices, as well as pairing the devices in the set of devices to a source device. Pairing of activation of the set of devices may be conditioned on successful completion of a registration process.
Abstract:
