A method for beamforming in a communication network includes generating a plurality of beamforming training (BFT) units associated with a beamforming session between a pair of devices, where each of the plurality of BFT units corresponds to a different beamsteering vector, causing a first non-zero subset of the plurality of BFT units to be transmitted during a first timeslot, and causing a second non-zero subset of the plurality of BFT units to be transmitted during a second timeslot, where the first time timeslot and the second timeslot are not contiguous.

In a method of determining a set of communication channels for a first basic service set from at least i) a first set of channels and ii) a second set of channels, wherein each of at least some of the channels in the second set of channels partially overlaps, in frequency, at least one of the channels in the first set of channels, whether the second set of channels is being utilized by a second basic service set is determined. That the set of communication channels for the first basic service set includes either i) the first set of channels or ii) the second set of channels is determined based at least on a determination of whether the second set of channels is being utilized by the second basic service set.

In a method for generating a physical layer (PHY) data unit for transmission via a communication channel, first data and second data that correspond to a unit of audio, video, and/or image information is received. The first data and the second data are encoded and modulated so that a resulting data rate of the first data is less than a resulting data rate of the second data. The first data and the second data are parsed to a plurality of spatial streams, and a single PHY data unit that includes the plurality of spatial streams is generated.

The first preamble portion includes one or more long training fields. The first preamble portion and the data portion are modulated using a plurality of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols. Symbol duration of each OFDM symbol is at least 8 μs. The data unit is generated to include the plurality of OFDM symbols.

In a method of determining an available channel bandwidth in a communication system, wherein the communication system utilizes i) a set of component channels for transmitting data streams and ii) a set of access control channels, and wherein each of at least some of the access control channels partially overlaps, in frequency, at least one of the component channels, whether a primary channel of the access control channels is idle is determined. The primary channel partially overlaps, in frequency, at least a first one of the component channels. That a composite channel includes one or more of the component channels is determined based at least on a determination of whether the primary channel is idle. A signal is caused to be transmitted via the composite channel after determining that the composite channel includes one or more of the component channels.

Systems and techniques relating to wireless communications are described. A described technique includes obtaining data for a transmission to a wireless communication device. The wireless communication device can be configured to process incoming transmissions based on an aggregate data unit format that specifies signaling for aggregating multiple medium access control (MAC) data units. The technique includes, in a physical (PHY) frame, an aggregate data unit that is based on the data and the aggregate data unit format, the aggregate data unit including a single MAC data unit. The technique includes, in the PHY frame, an indication to signal that the MAC data unit in the aggregate data unit is singular and to cause the wireless communication device to accept the aggregate data unit without a corresponding block acknowledgement agreement.

The present disclosure includes systems and techniques relating to wireless communications. A described system, for example, includes a device configured to transmit signals, in a frequency band, to the wireless communication devices. The signals can include spatially steered first signals that concurrently provide data to the wireless communication devices. The signals can include one or more second signals to the wireless communication devices to control transmission of responses from the wireless communication devices in the frequency band. The device can monitor for the responses in the frequency band. The device can control, based on a lack of reception of an expected response, a transmission of a third signal in the frequency band to prevent a transmission from another wireless communication device different than the wireless communication devices. The third signal can include information to reschedule a transmission of a response from a wireless communication device.

A method in a communication device for processing a received data unit includes determining whether the communication device is an intended receiver based on the received data unit, determining whether the received data unit includes an exclusive use indication, where the exclusive use indication indicates that a plurality of data units are transmitted only to the at least one intended receiver during a time period, where each of the plurality of data units has at least a respective physical layer (PHY) preamble, and determining a time interval during which the communication device need not listen for incoming data units using (i) a result of determining whether the received data unit includes an exclusive use indication and (ii) a result of determining whether the communication device is an intended receiver.
