Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. An access point (AP) may communicate with a plurality of stations in a basic service set (BSS) according to a target wakeup time (TWT) slot duration. The AP may identify one or more congestion or interference factors for the BSS. In some cases, the AP may identify a congestion score based at least in part on at least one of the one or more congestion factors from one or more stations that can be part of its own BSS, and an interference score based at least in part on at least one of the one or more interference factors form one or more stations that are not part of AP's BSS. In some cases, the AP may modify the TWT slot duration based at least in part on the congestion score and the interference score.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communication are provided. In one aspect, an apparatus may be configured to determine a scheduling metric for each respective station of a plurality of stations. The scheduling metric for each station may be based on an effective spatial-time-frequency physical layer (PHY) capability for the station and a consumption rate of spatial-time-frequency resources by the respective station. The effective spatial-time-frequency PHY capability for the station may be a product of a target percentage of spatial-time resources allocated to the station, an effective number of spatial streams supported by the respective station, and a maximum bandwidth. The consumption rate of spatial-time-frequency resources may be a transmit opportunity (TXOP) moving average of consumption rate by the station. The apparatus may be configured to schedule each station of the plurality of stations for communication based on the determined scheduling metric for each respective station.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communications. A device may utilize enhanced roaming techniques to identify a candidate channel for roaming. In one example, a device determines whether a candidate channel is congested by calculating a congestion metric associated with traffic over the shared channel. In some examples, the congestion metric is calculated based at least in part on an amount of energy measured over the candidate. For instance, the calculated congestion metric can be an instantaneous congestion level measured during a CCA. The device may then determine whether to roam to the candidate channel based at least in part on the calculated congestion metric.

Abstract: In one example, a method includes performing, by a wireless dockee (WD), a plurality of operations to wirelessly dock with a wireless docking center (WDC) such that the WD may access one or more peripheral functions (PFs) associated with the WDC. In this example, the WD includes a docking service, an application service platform (ASP), and one or more peripheral services that each correspond to at least one PF of the one or more PFs associated with the WDC. In this example, the method also includes interfacing, by the docking service and with the ASP, to perform a first subset of the plurality of operations, and interfacing, by the docking service and with the one or more peripheral services, to perform a second subset of the plurality of operations.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that may adjust the likelihood and/or frequency with which a wireless device performs scanning operations to reduce power consumption without degrading the ability of the wireless device to identify the best available access point with which to associate. In some aspects, the wireless device may adjust the likelihood and/or frequency of performing scanning operations based on a motion state of the wireless device, a change in the motion state of the wireless device, a signal strength of an associated access point, and/or the connection status of the wireless device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication. An access point (AP) may group stations (STAs) into multi-user (MU) groups with group identifiers (IDs). Within each MU group, the AP may dynamically configure several STAs into a transmission set. Each transmission set may include a different combination of STAs. In some cases, the AP may assign a STA to multiple transmission sets within a group ID. In certain scenarios, the AP may assign a STA to more than one group ID. The AP may restrict the number of group IDs to which a STA is assigned. Each MU group may include a number of user positions that may be occupied by one or more STAs. In some cases, the AP may restrict the number of STAs that may be assigned to (i.e., occupy) each user position.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are described for wireless communications. More particularly, an access point (AP) identifies a plurality of multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) groups associated with a wireless station (STA). The AP determines a communication metric associated with each of the plurality of MU-MIMO groups. The communication metric provides an indication of the compatibility of the STAs in the MU-MIMO group. The AP prioritizes at least one of the plurality of MU-MIMO groups based at least in part on the communication metric associated with the prioritized MU-MIMO group. The AP creates a preferred group list and/or a blacklisted group list and included the prioritized MU-MIMO group in the appropriate group list.
