Abstract:
A method of wirelessly communicating a packet includes generating, at a first wireless device, a first packet including a first preamble decodable by a plurality of devices and a second preamble decodable by only a subset of the plurality of devices. The first preamble includes a first signal field. The second preamble includes a first training field. The method further includes transmitting the first packet concurrently with one or more second packets to be transmitted by wireless devices other than the first wireless device.
Abstract:
Method and systems are disclosed for qualifying a wireless device as frequency hopping device. In some aspects, an access point (AP) may determine a frequency hopping pattern for the wireless device, and then allocate a sequence of unique resource units to the wireless device based on the frequency hopping pattern. Each of the unique resource units include a different set of frequency subcarriers. The AP may receive a series of uplink orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) transmissions from the wireless device on the allocated sequence of unique resource units.
Abstract:
A method performed by an electronic device is described. The method includes receiving a long training field (LTF) in a preamble of a packet. A power of the LTF is boosted relative to a power of a data field of the packet. The method also includes receiving a power amplifier (PA) model or a PA distortion error from a transmitting device. The method further includes regenerating a post-PA transmitted LTF based on the PA model or the PA distortion error. The method additionally includes demodulating the data field based on an estimated channel with deboosting.

Systems, methods, and computer readable storage media communicate with a wireless device within a dense wireless environment. In one aspect, a method includes determining whether a wireless device is subject to interference, adjusting a transmission attribute based on the determining, and transmitting a message to the wireless device based on the adjusted transmission attribute. In some aspects, adjusting a transmission attribute may include selecting one or more of time division multiplexing or frequency division multiplexing when communicating with the wireless device. In some aspects, particular time periods and/or particular frequency bands may be selected for communication with the device depending on whether the device is subject to interference.

Methods and apparatuses for providing wireless messages can include, for example, an apparatus configured to provide wireless communication. The apparatus includes a memory that stores instructions and a processor coupled with the memory and configured to execute the instructions to select a dual sub-carrier modulation (DCM) mode or a non-DCM mode. The processor is further configured to select one or more interleaver parameters based on the selection of the DCM mode or the non-DCM mode. The processor is further configured to select a first set of interleaver parameters when the DCM mode is selected and a second set of interleaver parameters, different than the first set of interleaver parameters, when the non-DCM mode is selected. The processor is further configured to apply the one or more interleaver parameters to interleave data of a message. The processor is further configured to provide the message for transmission to a receiving device.

The first set of wireless devices have a higher performance characteristic than the second set of wireless devices.
Abstract:
Techniques are described for wireless communication. One or more wireless local area network (WLAN) preamble portions may span multiple 20 MHz frequency bands, and may be duplicated across a transmission bandwidth. WLAN preamble portions may include common portions for multiple receivers as well as dedicated portions for particular receivers, and common portions may be transmitted in a primary frequency band in some examples. Some techniques provide that WLAN preamble portions may be encoded using different sized code blocks. Various aspects of the disclosure also provide for signaling of resource allocations of WLAN wireless frames.
