    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, apparatuses, wireless nodes and computer-readable mediums for wireless communications. In one aspect, wireless, or WiFi, sensing involves a device transmitting WiFi signals, while another device, or devices, use reflections of those signals to map and measure the environment. WiFi sensing may be used to obtain rough dimensions of a room, identify stationary objects in a room, or detect objects (such as people) moving into, out of, or within a room. Multi-static WiFi sensing can occur when two devices are simultaneously transmitting and receiving WiFi signals.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for enhancing a sector sweep. The apparatus generally includes a processing system configured to generate a first set of frames and a second set of frames. The apparatus also includes a first interface configured to output the first set of frames for transmission to a wireless node via a first set of beams, wherein each beam of the first set is wider in a first dimension than a second dimension, and output the second set of frames for transmission to the wireless node via a second set of beams, wherein each beam of the second set is wider in the second dimension than the first dimension.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communications and, more particularly, to methods and apparatus for reducing interference from neighboring wireless devices. An exemplary apparatus generally includes a processing system configured to determine an interference sensitivity factor (ISF) based at least in part on one or more interference-related parameters, and generate at least one frame to be output for transmission to a first wireless node via a first link, said at least one frame including the ISF. The apparatus also includes an interface configured to output the at least one frame for transmission to the first wireless node via the first link.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for enhancing a beamforming training procedure. For example, an apparatus for wireless communications may include a processing system configured to generate a first transmit beamforming refinement frame, a first interface configured to output the first transmit beamforming refinement frame for transmission to a wireless node, wherein a first portion of the first transmit beamforming refinement frame is output for transmission via a first transmit beamforming sector and further wherein training fields of the first transmit beamforming refinement frame are output for transmission via two or more second transmit beamforming sectors, and a second interface configured to obtain a first feedback frame from the wireless node indicating one of the second transmit beamforming sectors. The apparatus may be configured to use the indicated second transmit beamforming sector for communication with the wireless node.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for a fragmented beamforming training procedure. For example, an apparatus for wireless communications may include a processing system configured to generate a plurality of first frames, each first frame comprising a preamble, a data field, and one or more beamforming training fields. The apparatus may also include a first interface configured to output the plurality of first frames for transmission using a first transmit beamforming sector for the preamble and data field of each the plurality of first frames and a different second transmit beamforming sector for each of the one or more beamforming training fields of the plurality of first frames, and a second interface configured to obtain a second frame comprising feedback generated based on the one or more beamforming training fields of the plurality of first frames.
