    Abstract: Methods, devices, and apparatuses are described for wireless communications using a multidimensional algorithm for roaming. In one aspect, an initial set of candidate access points (APs) is produced by a station using a roaming scan. The initial set may be identified based at least in part on an initial metric (e.g., beacon signal strength). A probe signal may be transmitted by the station to at least one of the candidate APs in the initial set and information may be received in response to the probe signals. The station may then identify a reduced set from the initial set based at least in part on the received information, where the reduced set is used to select a target AP. At least one additional metric may be identified and the probe signal may be configured to obtain information corresponding to the additional metrics. This information may be used by the station to select the candidate APs in the reduced set.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for scheduling SU and MU traffic in a MIMO communications system. Net goodput may be estimated for a station using a plurality of MIMO modes and a transmission to the station may be scheduled using one of the MIMO modes based, at least in part, on the estimated net goodput. Estimating net goodput may include determining a number of bits that may be successfully transmitted to the station using the MIMO mode divided by a time required to transmit the number of bits plus the sounding time. Further, the number of bits that may be successfully transmitted to the station may be based on the number of packets that may be delivered over the upcoming sounding interval and statistically determined goodput for each MIMO mode.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for optimizing the sounding interval in a MIMO communications system. Following a channel sounding protocol, net throughput may be estimated over time. The sounding interval may correspond to the period of time between the end of the sounding protocol and a time when the estimated net throughput is maximized. Estimating net throughput may involve estimating the number of bits that may be successfully transmitted divided by the time required to transmit. The number of bits that may be successfully transmitted may be estimated from a statistical channel profile including goodput.

    Abstract: A method of performing transmission from an access point (AP) in a wireless communication system provides transmission setting adjustment after sounding. In this method, stations associated with the AP and having transmission data can be identified. Transmission to those stations can be performed using a predetermined transmission setting. For a first transmission after a sounding, the predetermined transmission setting can be boosted. For any transmission other than the first transmission after the sounding, a current or adjusted transmission setting can be used based on a detected PER during transmission. An adjusted transmission setting can be an MCS rate, a user-level (SU-BF, 2U-MIMO, or 3U-MIMO), or an aggregated MAC protocol data unit (AMPDU) aggregation level. A single transmission setting or a combination of settings can be used. The method can be used with any transmission setting(s), including those mapped from the Signal to Interference and Noise Ratio (SINR).

    Abstract: An access point determines the buffered data for each station of a plurality of stations in a BSS and groups the stations with similar station characteristics. The transmission time to the stations in a group can be apportioned. The groups can be ordered based on station characteristics and a transmission history. A sounding for a group can be performed based on the order. The MU-MIMO transmission for the group can be performed until a first condition is met. If the first condition is met, then the sounding and the MU-MIMO transmission for a next group can be performed, according to the order, until a second condition is met. The first condition can include an apportioned transmission time having expired and/or the buffers for the group being flushed. The second condition can include new data having been buffered by the AP and/or all buffered data having been transmitted.

    Abstract: A method of providing feedback on channel observations to a transmitter includes observing a channel at a receiver based on received signals from the transmitter and determining whether a packet error rate (PER) is rising based on the observing. The receiver determines whether a rising PER is caused by channel noise or interference, and transmits a message to the transmitter indicating the cause of the rising PER. The cause may be encoded in reserved bits of a block acknowledgement (BA) frame or an Acknowledge (ACK) frame, or in a modulation coding scheme (MCS) used to transmit the message. The cause may be detected in response to SNR/RSSI level of received signals, or a number of receiver restarts. The transmitter may change the transmit rate adaptation algorithm to use a lower MCS if channel noise causes the rising PER, and a higher MCS if interference causes the rising PER.

    Abstract translation: 向发射机提供信道观测的反馈的方法包括基于来自发射机的接收信号观察接收机处的信道,并基于观测确定分组差错率(PER)是否正在上升。 接收机确定上升的PER是由信道噪声还是干扰引起的,并且向发射机发送指示引起增加的PER的原因的消息。 原因可以在块确认(BA)帧或应答(ACK)帧的保留位或者用于发送消息的调制编码方案(MCS)中编码。 可以响应于接收到的信号的SNR / RSSI电平或者接收机重启的次数来检测原因。 如果信道噪声导致上升的PER,则发射机可以改变发射速率自适应算法以使用较低的MCS,如果干扰导致上升的PER,则发射机可以改变较高的MCS。
