    Abstract: The disclosed systems and methods for wireless communication directed are towards (i) encoding data bits to be transmitted over a multiple resource unit (MRU) in a wireless local area network (WLAN), (ii) creating a group of the encoded data bits based on a predetermined criterion, (iii) parsing the encoded bits in the group based on a proportional ratio associated with the MRU, (iv) modulating the parsed encoded data bits to generate modulated encoded data symbols, (v) mapping the modulated encoded data symbols to data subcarriers to generate encoded data subcarriers, the data subcarriers being associated with respective resource units (RUs) of the MRU, (vi) duplicating the encoded data subcarriers within the respective RUs, (vii) shuffling the duplicate encoded data subcarriers across the respective RUs of the MRU, and (viii) transmitting the encoded data subcarriers, and the duplicate encoded data subcarriers over the MRU in the WLAN.

    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide for methods and systems for Sub-codebook based Trellis Coded Quantization for CSI Feedback. An aspect of the disclosure provides method executed by a receiver. The method includes receiving a signal from a transmitter, via a communication channel between the receiver and the transmitter. The method further includes estimating parameters associated with the channel based on the received signal. The method further includes obtaining phase information from the estimated parameters. The method further includes applying a trellis coded quantization (TCQ) scheme to the obtained phase information by mapping each sub-codebook index of a set of sub-codebook indices to output bits of each trellis branch making the distance between sub-codebooks maximally equal. The method further includes transmitting a channel state information (CSI) measurement feedback to the transmitter, the CSI measurement feedback based on the TCQ scheme and comprising one or more of: a beginning state, input bits to the TCQ scheme, and a sub-codebook index.

    Abstract: Embodiments are provided for enabling a coordinated beamforming (CB) mechanism in WLAN scenarios. In an embodiment, an AP sends a Feedback Request (FBR) frame to each one of the STAs in the OBSSs. The OBSSs comprise the STAs and a plurality of APs including the AP. The AP then receives a feedback frame from each STA of the STAs that participate in the CB transmission. The feedback frame includes channel state information (CSI) of the STA. The CSI enables the sending AP of performing CB on downlink. In an embodiment, the AP receives an initiate CB frame from a second AP initiating a CB transmission, and then sends an ACK frame to the second AP before sending the FBR frame to each one of the STAs. The AP starts the CB transmission with each one of the other APs that participate in the CB transmission.

    Abstract: Embodiments are provided for implementing a control function in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) for allocation of resources to multiple stations (STAs) to enable Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) communications. An embodiment method includes determining a plurality of transmission resources for OFDMA communications of a plurality of STAs in the WLAN. The determination includes allocating a plurality of subcarriers to the STAs. The method further includes signaling the determined transmission resources to the STAs. The signaling of the transmission resources is piggybacked on at least one of data and management frames, such as in a sub-header of a MAC frame, or is an explicit signaling, such as in one or more dedicated fields of a traffic specification information element. The transmission resources for OFDMA communications allow simultaneous transmissions of the STAs in the WLAN.

    Abstract: A method and system for providing utilization information for a basic service set (BSS) in a wireless local area network system, performed by an access point, including generating and transmitting a BSS load element including a capable STA count field, a plurality of frequency and/or spatial stream underutilization fields, and a plurality of delta observable secondary channel utilization fields. The capable STA count field indicates a total number of STAs currently associated with the BSS. Each of the frequency and/or spatial stream underutilization fields indicates underutilized frequency and/or spatial stream domain resources on Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access resource units for each channel, and each of the frequency and/or spatial stream underutilization fields is calculated based on RU size. Each of the delta observable secondary channel utilization fields indicates a utilization for a subband within a secondary channel calculated based on observable utilization on the corresponding secondary channel.
