Abstract: Fine Timing Measurement (FTM) Burst Management during Time-of-Flight (ToF) measurements in a wireless network separates FTM traffic from other traffic activity using two distinct Media Access Control (MAC) addresses and by coordinating access availability durations between FTM activity and other traffic. Communication stations save power by powering down receive paths between FTM frames. A communication station arranged for FTM Burst Management comprises physical layer circuitry and processors to use a first MAC address for FTM procedure signals, and a second MAC address that is distinct from the first MAC address for data and traffic signals other than FTM procedure signals, and exchange FTM procedure signals with the Access Point (AP) during scheduled FTM burst access availability periods using the first MAC address, and exchange other data and traffic signals with the AP during other access availability periods using the second MAC address.

Abstract: Embodiments of an access point (AP), station (STA) and method of sounding are generally described herein. The AP may transmit, during a transmission opportunity (TXOP), a trigger frame (TF) to indicate that an STA is to transmit an uplink sounding packet during an uplink sounding period of the TXOP. The AP may attempt to detect the uplink sounding packet during the uplink sounding period. If the uplink sounding packet is not detected during the uplink sounding period, the AP may transmit a recovery packet to cause other STAs to determine a busy condition during the uplink sounding period. If the uplink sounding packet is detected during the uplink sounding period, the AP may determine a channel estimate for the STA based at least partly on the uplink sounding packet.

Abstract: Embodiments of a station (STA) and method for ranging in accordance with Neighborhood Awareness Network (NAN) communication are generally described herein. An initiator STA may determine, for a data service that is to be established between the initiator STA and a responder STA on a NAN data link, whether a ranging procedure is to be performed for the data service. As part of the ranging procedure, range measurements or fine timing may be determined. When the ranging procedure is to be performed for the data service, ranging configuration parameters may be included in data request messages, publish messages and other messages sent by the STAs 103. In some cases, the STAs 103 may refrain from exchanging separate messages for communication of ranging information.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to enhanced location service negotiation. A device may identify a neighbor report frame received from one or more coordinated access points (APs), wherein the neighbor report frame comprises location capability support information. The device may determine a first ranging associated ID (R-AID) associated with the location capability support information. The device may determine a first location measurement with a first coordinated AP of the one or more coordinated APs and a second location measurement with a second coordinated AP of the one or more coordinated APs using the first R-AID.

Abstract: Embodiments of an access point (AP), station (STA) and method for multi-user (MU) location measurement are generally described herein. The AP may contend for a transmission opportunity (TXOP) to obtain access to a channel. The AP may transmit a trigger frame (TF) to initiate a multi-user (MU) location measurement during the TXOP. The AP may receive service requests for the MU location measurement from a plurality of STAs. The AP may transmit an MU acknowledgement (ACK) frame that indicates reception of the service requests. The AP may receive, from the STAs, uplink sounding frames that include per-STA timing information for the service requests and the MU ACK frame. The STA may determine location measurements for the STAs based on the per-STA timing information included in the uplink sounding frames.

Abstract: The application layer of a first wireless device may be configured to receive a ranging request indication from a MAC layer of the first wireless device, determine whether the MAC layer should respond to the ranging request, and send a ranging response to the MAC layer with an indication of whether to respond to the ranging request. The MAC layer may be configured to decode a ranging set-up request from a second wireless device, where the ranging set-up request comprises time slots. If an auto-response is set to false, send a ranging request indication to the application layer and receive from the application layer a ranging response, and if the auto-response is set to true or the ranging response indicates the MAC layer should respond to the ranging set-up request, select a time slot, and encode a ranging response with an indication of the selected time slot.
