摘要： An apparatus for a station (STA) is generally described herein. The STA includes a low-power WUR (LP-WUR), a local timing synchronization function (TSF) timer, and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry can decode a signal received from an access point (AP) at the LP-WUR, the signal including a TSF value, the TSF value including a subset of octets of a TSF timer associated with the AP. The STA can synchronize the local TSF timer of the STA with the TSF timer associated with the AP by adjusting a local TSF timer based on a count of a number of octets included in the subset of octets. The LP-WUR can wake up a wireless local area network (WLAN) radio of the STA at a wake-up time based on the local TSF timer. Other methods, apparatuses and systems are also described.

摘要： A physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) may include legacy preamble fields followed by a universal signal field (U-SIG). For an extended range (ER) transmission, the U-SIG is encoded to indicate via a bit whether the PPDU is an ER PPDU or a non-ER PPDU. When the U-SIG is encoded to indicate that the PPDU is an ER PPDU, the PPDU may include ER preamble fields following the U-SIG and an ER data field following the ER preamble fields. The ER preamble fields may comprise pre-ER modulated fields followed by ER modulated fields. The pre-ER modulate fields may comprise an ER short training field (ER-STF) followed by an ER long training field (ER-LTF) followed by an ER signal field (ER-SIG). The ER modulated fields may comprise at least the ER data field.

摘要： Methods, devices, and systems for retransmission of wake-up signals from a first station to a second station over a wireless network are disclosed. In some aspects, a wake-up signal is encoded for transmission to the second station. While the first station is waiting for an acknowledgment of the wake-up signal from the second station, the second station may retransmit the wake up signal and/or encode a packet for transmission to a third station. In some aspects, whether the wake-up signal is retransmitted is based in part, on at least one of whether a number of timeout events for wake-up signals transmitted to the second station exceeds a maximum timeouts threshold, whether a number of wake-up signals transmitted to the second station exceeds a maximum wake-up signals threshold; or whether a maximum predetermined elapsed time since a first wake-up signal was transmitted to the second station is exceeded.
