    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. An access point (AP) may direct stations (STAs) to use a request-to-send (RTS)/clear-to-send (CTS) mode so the AP may perform power savings and off-channel operations without disrupting the communications of nearby devices. In some cases, the AP may use traffic conditions to identify a power save period and subsequently transmit an indication of an RTS/CTS mode to multiple STAs. In one example, the AP may power down at least one radio frequency (RF) chain and enter into a sleep mode. Additionally or alternatively, during the power save period the AP may receive an RTS from a STA and power up additional radio chains for MIMO communication. In some cases, the AP may identify an off-channel operations period based on traffic conditions and perform the off-channel operations after indicating the RTS/CTS mode to a set of STAs.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication at a wireless communications device. The device may use several antennas to receive a signal, one of which may be shared between two radios. During signal reception, a radio may detect when the shared antenna is abruptly taken over by the other radio. The radio may detect the loss of the antenna by measuring an impedance mismatch. Alternatively, the radio may reference an antenna switch control that is used to facilitate the switch. After detection, the radio may recover from the antenna loss by adjusting signal processing. For example, the radio may modify a maximal ratio combining (MRC) operation. In certain examples, the device may disregard the signal version from the shared antenna in the computation of MRC weights. In some cases, the device may interrupt an MRC weight computation and use MRC weights from a previous calculation.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for providing closed-loop power control during a short inter-frame space (SIFS) burst are described herein. A method includes receiving feedback associated with transmit power used to transmit a first data packet in a SIFS burst. The method also includes adjusting at least the transmit power, or a modulation and coding scheme (MCS), or a combination thereof, used to transmit a second data packet of the SIFS burst based at least in part on the received feedback.

    Abstract: A wireless device that operates in accordance with the IEEE 802.11 standard receives the preamble of a packet with the highest number of receive chains enabled, thereby obtaining the highest gain, detection sensitivity and range. The wireless device determines a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in response to two different short training fields (STFs) in the preamble. The wireless device also determines a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) and a number of spatial streams (Nss) used to transmit the received packet in response to a signal field of the preamble. The wireless device uses these determined parameters to identify a minimum number of the receive chains required to reliably receive the packet. The wireless device uses only the identified minimum number of receive chains to perform channel estimation and receive the data portion of the packet.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) uses information regarding the timing of scheduling mobile wireless services (MWS) RAT communications to improve MWS and wireless network connectivity (WCN) radio access technology coexistence. To allow sufficient time for an uplink grant to be received by the UE in advance of the scheduled uplink time, an uplink grant may be sent in advance of the scheduled uplink time. In some instances, the UE may receive an indication of scheduled uplink time of the MWS RAT via a physical layer communication. The UE may schedule communications of the WCN RAT based at least in part on the indication of future activity.

    Abstract: In a wireless communication system including a transmitter device and a receiver device, the receiver device may be configured to awake from a low power mode to receive beacons from the transmitter device. The receiver device may awaken an early reception interval prior to the beacon arrival time determined by the local clocks to account for inaccuracies in the local clocks and the transmitter clock. The early reception interval may be dynamically adjusted based upon an estimation of the clock errors to minimize the early reception interval.
