Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating data in a wireless communications network are described herein. In some aspects, a wireless device includes a first receiver and a second receiver. The second receiver may be configured to consume less power than the first receiver. The second receiver receives a second signal wherein the second signal comprises a wake-up signal configured in NDP format including a signal field. The wireless device includes a circuit configured to take at least one action based on the second signal.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to a technique for selecting modulation coding schemes (MCS). In some aspects, the MCS is selected based on a characteristic of an electronic device and the MCS of a transmitter. In some aspects, the MCS is selected based on a power imbalance between an access point and a user terminal.
Abstract:
Systems, methods and devices for modifying relay operation of a wireless device are disclosed. In one aspect an apparatus for modifying relay operation of a wireless node comprises a processing system configured to generate a message requesting the wireless node to enable access point operation of the wireless node or instructing the wireless node to disable the access point operation of the wireless node. The message comprises a relay activation information element. The message comprises one or more of a field indicating a time for the wireless node to enable the access point operation or disable the access point operation and a field indicating whether the message is requesting the wireless node to enable the access point operation or instructing the wireless node to disable the access point operation.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for wireless communication are disclosed. In one aspect an access point includes a processor configured to generate a message identifying a time period in which the access point will enter a power save mode and ignore a packet sent from any wireless station, and a transmitter connected to the processor and configured to transmit the message to one or more wireless stations associated with the access point.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication are described herein. In some aspects, a method includes determining one or more classes of compatible transmissions from one or more wireless devices. The method further includes defining scheduled time slots for each of the one or more classes. The method further includes defining a channel access procedure associated with each of the scheduled time slots. The method further includes accessing a wireless medium during an associated scheduled time slot according to the channel access procedure by one or more of the wireless devices.
Abstract:
Aspects of the present disclosure provide apparatus, methods, processing systems, and computer program products for time synchronization function (TSF) rollover solutions for short beacons. Aspects of the present disclosure provide an apparatus for wireless communications. The apparatus generally includes a processing system configured to generate a time stamp with a first value of a first portion of a counter and generate a frame including a first field with the time stamp and a second field having one or more bits with a second value of the first portion of the counter, and an interface configured to output the frame for transmission to a receiving device.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for wireless communications are disclosed. More particularly, aspects generally relate to techniques for indicating a minimum and maximum channel bandwidth in a frame (e.g., short frame). One or more bits in the frame, for example a management frame, may indicate both minimum and maximum bandwidths for communicating in the network. According to aspects, a wireless terminal may determine the minimum and maximum bandwidths for communicating in the network based on a mapping of different values of the one or more bits to combinations of minimum and maximum bandwidths. While any field in the frame may indicate the minimum and maximum bandwidth, according to aspects, the Basic Service Set (BSS) bandwidth (BW) field may be used for the indication.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating data in a wireless communications network are described herein. One innovative aspect of the present disclosure includes a method of communicating in a wireless network. The wireless network includes an access point and a relay. The method includes indicating to a client, at the relay, a network address of the access point. The method further includes receiving an association request, from the client, addressed to the access point. The method further includes forwarding the association request to the access point.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for generating a frame with timing information for a target wake time (TWT) and an identification of the TWT. An example method generally includes generating a frame generating a frame comprising timing information for a target wake time (TWT) and an identification of the TWT to which the timing information applies, and outputting the frame for transmission.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication are disclosed. In one implementation an apparatus for wireless communications is provided. The apparatus includes a receiver configured to receive a wake-up message that is a portion of a wake-up sequence. In certain implementations, the apparatus further includes a processing system operably coupled to the receiver and configured to wake the receiver for a period of time. The period of time can exceed at least a transmission period of the wake-up sequence plus a transmission period of the wake-up message. The apparatus can further include a transmitter configured to transmit a message acknowledging receipt of the wake-up message.
