Methods, devices and a computer-readable medium are disclosed for subcarrier allocation to multiple users in wireless local-area networks in accordance with orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA). A high-efficiency wireless local-area network (HEW) master device is disclosed. The HEW master device includes circuitry configured to transmit data to a plurality of HEW devices, in accordance with OFDMA, on a plurality of noncontiguous sub-channels. Each noncontiguous sub-channel may be a plurality of subcarriers across a bandwidth. A HEW device is disclosed. The HEW device may include circuitry configured to transmit data to a HEW master device, in accordance with OFDMA and a resource map, on a noncontiguous sub-channel over a bandwidth. The circuitry may be further configured to transmit the noncontiguous subcarriers at a greater power level than a regulatory power level for the plurality of interlaced subcarriers if the plurality of interlaced subcarriers were contiguous.

Examples are disclosed for providing flexible clear channel assessment (CCA) detection thresholds in a wireless local access network (WLAN). In some examples, an apparatus for dynamically setting a clear channel assessment (CCA) threshold in a wireless local area network (WLAN) may comprise a processor component, a radio coupled to the processor component, and logic for execution by the processor component to establish a CCA threshold for a wireless channel of the WLAN, send a first wireless message to one or more wireless station (STA) devices in wireless proximity to the apparatus informing the one or more STA devices of the established CCA threshold and instructing the one or more STA devices to avoid CCA levels exceeding the CCA threshold on the wireless channel and send a second wireless message to a wireless access point (AP) device associated with the apparatus informing the AP device of the established CCA threshold and instructing the AP device to broadcast use of the CCA threshold on the wireless channel. Other examples are described and claimed.

Logic may determine a first frame comprising a hopping pattern value and a target hopping time (THT). The hopping pattern may indicate a pattern of channels to which to hop. Logic may determine a clear-to-send (CTS) frame comprising a duration value indicative of a duration of a data transmission. Logic may transmit the first frame on at least a primary channel of the channels. Logic may transmit the CTS frame prior to transmitting the data transmission on the one or more channels in accordance with the hopping pattern, each channel having a bandwidth of at least 450 megahertz and being within in a 6 gigahertz to 10 gigahertz frequency band. Logic may receive a frame on at least a primary channel of the channels. Logic may receive CTS frames at the THT in accordance with the hopping pattern.

Logic such as hardware and/or code to narrow available sub-channels in frequency selective transmission communications in which a station selects a narrow band from a wider channel bandwidth. A frequency selective transmission scheme for communications devices may select a 1 or 2 MHz channel from a wider channel bandwidth (e.g., 4, 8, 16 MHz) that consists of a number of 1 or 2 MHz sub-channels and transmitting packets on the selected sub-channel. The access point may narrow the number of sub-channels available for selection by stations. Stations may narrow the number of sub-channels. Both the AP and the stations may operate to narrow the number of sub-channels. A medium access control sub-layer protocol common to the communications devices may facilitate a frequency selective transmission scheme.

Embodiments of an access point and method for high-efficiency WLAN (HEW) communication are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the access point may be configured to operate as a master station and may configure an HEW frame to include a legacy signal field (L-SIG), an HEW signal field (HEW SIG-A) following the L-SIG, and one or more HEW fields following the HEW SIG-A. The L-SIG may be configured for transmission using a legacy number of data subcarriers, a legacy number of pilot subcarriers and a number of additional reference subcarriers modulated with a known reference sequence. At least one symbol of the HEW SIG-A and the one or more HEW fields following the HEW SIG-A of the HEW frame may be configured for transmission using additional data subcarriers. The additional data subcarriers may correspond to the additional reference subcarriers of the L-SIG.

A system and method are provided for implementing improved frequency estimation for wireless communication that involves lower power transmissions with reduced signal-to-noise ratios for receivers particularly in systems configured according to the pending IEEE 802.11ah standard. These systems and methods provide frequency estimation over that prescribed for devices operating according other IEEE 802.11 standards and the proposed frequency estimator specified for IEEE 802.11ac systems. The disclosed techniques use schemes that reuse a short training field (STF) stored in memory, employ joint STF-long training field (LTF) estimation, use portions of a guard interval (GI), and create of multiple-phase estimates, with different symbol separation to improve a signal-to-noise ratio of the frequency estimate.

Devices and techniques for dynamic patterned resource allocation in a wireless network are described herein. Components of a wireless station may obtain a set of dynamic patterns, where members of the set define a sequence of resource units for the wireless network. The components may receive a data unit from an access point of the wireless network, the data unit including a group designation for the wireless station. The components may select one of the set of dynamic patterns based on the received group designation and communicate on the wireless network using resource units specified by the selected dynamic pattern.

Embodiments of an access point (AP), user station (STA), and method for variable length encoding are generally described herein. The AP may encode a block of input bits according to a parity check matrix to produce a low density parity check (LDPC) codeword. The parity check matrix may be included in a group of candidate parity check matrixes that includes a base parity check matrix and an expanded parity check matrix. An LDPC codeword length may be smaller for the base parity check matrix than for the expanded parity check matrix. The base parity check matrix may be used for the encoding when the LDPC codeword is transmitted for a legacy user station (STA). The expanded parity check matrix may be used when the LDPC codeword is transmitted for a non-legacy STA.

Embodiments of a system and methods for distinguishing high-efficiency Wi-Fi (HEW) packets from legacy packets are generally described herein. In some embodiments, an access point may select a value for the length field of a legacy signal field (L-SIG) that is non-divisible by three for communicating with HEW stations and may select a value for the length field that is divisible by three for communicating with legacy stations. In some embodiments, the access point may select a phase rotation for application to the BPSK modulation of at least one of the first and second symbols of a subsequent signal field to distinguish a high-throughput (HT) PPDU, a very-high throughput (VHT) PPDU and an HEW PPDU.
