Abstract: An apparatus and system for decreasing packet error rate (PER) in a station (STA) are described. The STA determines that an Extremely High Throughput (EHT) physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) is to be constructed for transmission and that Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) encoding is to be used to encode a data field of the EHT PPDU. In response, the STA constructs the EHT PPDU in accordance with a construction constraint of the data field of the EHT PPDU when a LDPC codeword (CW) size 648 is to be used for the data field of the EHT PPDU. The construction constraint includes using bit level interleaving or preventing use of LDPC CW size 648 for a modulation coding scheme (MCS) that is larger than 256 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) or 64 QAM or for all QAMs.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for a common preamble for wireless local-area networks (WLANs). An apparatus of an access point (AP) or station (STA) comprising processing circuitry configured to decode a portion of a physical layer (PHY) protocol data unit (PPDU), the first portion of the PPDU including a physical universal signal field (U-SIG), the U-SIG comprising a version independent portion and a version dependent portion, the version independent portion including a version identifier field, the version identifier field indicating a standard version of the PPDU. The processing circuitry is further configured to refrain from decoding the version dependent portion when the standard version indicates a standard version of a later generation than a standard version of the AP or STA, and otherwise decode the version dependent portion in accordance with the standard version.

Abstract: Embodiments of an access point (AP), station (STA) and method of communication are generally described herein. The STA may determine a portion of a channel occupied by an incumbent device. The STA may refrain from communication in a first subset of resource units (RUs) that overlap the portion of the channel occupied by the incumbent device. The STA may determine a combined RU that comprises two or more RUs of a second subset of RUs that do not overlap the portion of the channel occupied by the incumbent device. The STA may encode a physical layer convergence procedure protocol data unit (PPDU) for transmission in the combined RU. The PPDU may be encoded in accordance with joint coding across the RUs of the combined RU.

Abstract: A wireless device, system and method. The device includes a processing circuitry is configured to decode duplicate Request to Send (RTS) frames from a first access point (AP) that is part of an Extended Service Set (ESS) including a second AP, the first AP and the second AP buffering data for the device. The processing circuitry is further to cause transmission of duplicate multi-AP channel bonding (MACB) Trigger frames to the first AP and to the second AP in response to the duplicate RTS frames. Each of the duplicate RTS frames and duplicate Trigger frames have a legacy preamble portion over a first bandwidth of a corresponding wireless channel, and a MACB portion over a second narrower bandwidth of the corresponding wireless channel. The processing circuitry is further to decode a first data frame portion from the first AP and a second data frame portion from the second AP.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, and methods related to signal classification in a wireless communication network. A first computing device comprising one or more processors and one or more transceiver component may receive a signal transmission packet comprising a physical layer (PHY) preamble. The first computing device may identify within the PHY preamble, one or more signal (SIG) fields, wherein at least one of the one or more SIG fields includes at least a length field indicating a length of the signal transmission packet. The first computing device may determine based at least in part on the length field, that the signal transmission packet is associated with a predetermined communication standard utilized to transmit the signal transmission packet. The first computing device may decode the signal transmission packet based at least in part on the determination that the signal transmission packet is associated with the predetermined communication standard.

Abstract: Logic may comprise hardware and/or code to coordinate communications of wireless communications devices to reduce power consumption by stations. Logic may coordinate communications in an access point. Logic may generate and transmit a wake frame from the access point to the station to wake the receive circuitry of the station. Logic of the station may wake the receive circuitry from an idle mode, which may be a less linear and less sensitive mode, to a receiver (RX) active state, which is a high linear and high sensitivity mode. Once the receiver circuitry enters the RX active state, the station is ready to receive a transmission. Logic may implement the wake frame as a medium access control frame or as a null data packet, physical layer frame.

Abstract: Techniques to manage dwell times for pilot rotation are described. An apparatus may comprise a memory configured to store a data structure with a set of modulation and coding schemes (MCS) available to an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system, each MCS having an associated pilot dwell time. The apparatus may further comprise a processor circuit coupled to the memory, the processor circuit configured to identify a MCS to communicate a packet using multiple subcarriers of the OFDM system, and retrieve a pilot dwell time associated with the MCS from the memory, the pilot dwell time to indicate when to shift a pilot tone between subcarriers of the multiple subcarriers during communication of the packet. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
