摘要:
Systems and techniques relating to wireless communications are described. A described technique includes identifying devices to receive spatially steered data frames during a transmission opportunity (TXOP), the data frames being included in a multi-user frame; transmitting, during the TXOP, request to send (RTS) information to the identified devices; receiving clear to send (CTS) responses from the identified devices; determining a bandwidth configuration for the multi-user frame based on the CTS responses; and transmitting, during the TXOP, the multi-user frame to the identified devices in accordance with the bandwidth configuration. The bandwidth configuration can indicate one or more frequency bands that are available during at least a portion of the TXOP.

In a method for generating a control data unit a physical layer (PHY) preamble of the control data unit is generated. In generating the PHY preamble, an address field is generated to indicate a communication device for which the data unit is intended, and a frame type field is generated to indicate a type of the control data unit. The address field and the frame type field are included in the PHY preamble. The control data unit is generated to include the PHY preamble. The control data unit is transmitted. The control data unit omits (i) a MAC header, and (iii) a payload.

Systems and techniques relating to wireless communications are described. A described technique includes monitoring a group of wireless channels that are useable by at least a first wireless communication device for wireless communications, receiving one or more beacon signals from one or more second wireless communication devices, identifying, within the group of wireless channels, one or more primary channels on which the one or more beacon signals are received, estimating a traffic load for the one or more identified primary channels, determining, based on the estimated traffic load, whether to use as a primary channel for the first wireless communication device, a channel of the one or more identified primary channels or a channel of the group of wireless channels that is separate from the one or more identified primary channels; and selecting the primary channel for the first wireless communication device based on a result of the determining.

In a method for transmitting a data unit in a wireless communication network, a physical layer (PHY) preamble and a media access control layer (MAC) header are generated. In generating the MAC header, a first address field to include a first address and a second address field to include a second address are generated. The first, not globally unique, address indicates a communication device for which the data unit is intended or a communication device that is transmitting the data unit. The second address field indicates the other one of a communication device for which the data unit is intended or a communication device that is transmitting the data unit. The first address field and the second address field are included in the MAC header. The MAC header omits a globally unique address corresponding to the first address of the first address field.

A system and method for partial bandwidth communication. The system includes a device that has a transceiver configured to connect to a network, a memory storing an executable program and a processor. The program causes the processor to perform operations including receiving data to be transmitted to second device, determining if the data uses less than a predetermined bandwidth used as a unit for a carrier aggregation, determining a plurality of sub-bands in the predetermined bandwidth, each sub-band including at least one pilot and a plurality of frequency tones, receiving network information from the second device, the network information indicating a preferred sub-band of the sub-bands, assigning one of the sub-bands to the second device based upon the network information, generating a packet including an indication, the indication indicating the assigned sub-band; transmitting the packet to the second device and transmitting the data in the assigned sub-band.

In a method for generating a data unit for transmission in a wireless network, a physical layer (PHY) preamble is generated. In generating the PHY preamble, a first indicator is generated to indicate at least one of (i) whether the data unit includes data offloaded from a mobile telephony network separate from the wireless network, or (ii) whether the data unit (a) was generated by, or (b) is addressed to, a communication device that supports offloading of data from the mobile telephony network to the wireless network. The first indicator is included in the PHY preamble. Additionally, a media access control layer (MAC) header is generated. The data unit is generated to include the PHY preamble and the MAC header. The data unit is then caused to be transmitted.
