    Abstract: A procedure and frame structure for Wi-Fi sensing is described. An aspect of the disclosure provides a method of sensing. Such the method includes sending, by an initiating station (STA) to a plurality of responder STAs, a sensing request comprising a sensing announcement frame indicating identifiers (ID) of the plurality of responder STAs. Such a method further includes receiving, by the initiating STA from the plurality of responder STAs, one or more responses based on the sensing request. In some embodiments, the announcement frame further indicates resource unit assignments for receiving acknowledgements from the plurality of responder STAs. In some embodiments, the method further includes receiving, by the initiating STA from the plurality of responder STAs, the acknowledgements indicating a willingness to participate in the sensing procedure.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods of communication between an access point (AP) and a plurality of stations (STAs) operating in a wireless local area network (WLAN). The method includes: transmitting, by the AP, a signal for a receiving STA in the plurality of STAs to initiate a channel sounding process for a communication channel between the AP and the receiving STA; receiving, by the AP, a feedback signal from the receiving STA, the feedback signal carrying a frame including a capability indicator for indicating a capability of the receiving STA; and processing, by the AP, the frame carried by the feedback signal to determine at least one of the following: a Modulation and Coding Set (MCS) processable by the receiving STA, a MIMO detection algorithm processable by the receiving STA, and a maximum computational complexity of the receiving STA.

    Abstract: A method and system for LBT or CCA threshold setting for directional reception and transmission are provided. In an embodiment, a method in a wireless device for determining if a channel is clear in an unlicensed band channel in a wireless network includes detecting, with the wireless device, an energy along a first beamforming direction. The method also includes determining, with the wireless device, an energy detection threshold. The method also includes determining, with the wireless device, whether the unlicensed band channel is clear in at least the first receiving direction according to the energy and the energy detection threshold.
