    摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first wireless device (e.g., station (STA), access point (AP)) may transmit to a second wireless device during a service period, an initiating frame using a transmit beam that is based on a first beam training procedure performed between the devices prior to the service period. The first wireless device may perform a second beam training procedure during the service period based on an absence of a response frame from the second wireless device, based on an indication within the response frame received from the second wireless device, or based on identification of a change in a wireless channel relative to a previous beam training interval or previous service period. The first wireless device may then communicate one or more messages with the second wireless device using one or more beams that are based on the second beam training procedure.

    摘要: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for wireless communication. In some implementations, a wireless communication device obtains one or more indications that a wireless station (STA) will enter a power-save mode, selects, for each respective STA of a plurality of STAs, a duration associated with the respective STA entering the power-save mode, and adjusts one or more parameters of a multi-user channel access mechanism for transmitting uplink data associated with the selected duration. In some other implementations, a wireless communication device outputs one or more indications that the device will enter a power-save mode, outputs or obtains data at each of a plurality of first instances, enters the power-save mode at each of a plurality of second instances, and obtains a beacon indicating one or more parameters to be used for a multi-user channel access mechanism for transmitting uplink data.

    摘要: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatuses for wireless communication that can be used for channel puncturing. A wireless station (STA) may receive an indication of a first puncturing pattern to be used for transmitting or receiving data over a wireless channel, where the first puncturing pattern is defined by a first wireless communication protocol release and the STA is configured to operate according to a second wireless communication protocol release. The STA may select, from a set of puncturing patterns defined by the second wireless communication protocol release, a second puncturing pattern that includes one or more non-punctured subchannels that are subsets of one or more corresponding non-punctured subchannels of the first puncturing pattern. The STA may use the second puncturing pattern to transmit or receive one or more packets over the wireless channel.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) or a base station may be configured to indicate that a transmission occasion is empty while operating in a full-duplex mode. In some examples, the UE may transmit, to the base station, an indication that an uplink transmission occasion (for example, a configured grant transmission occasion) will not be used by the UE for transmitting an uplink communication. In some other examples, the base station may transmit, to the UE, an indication a downlink transmission occasion (for example, semi-persistent scheduling transmission occasion) will not be used by the base station for transmitting a downlink communication. If uplink or downlink transmission occasions are empty, the UE and the base station may each update parameters to operate in a half-duplex mode.

    摘要: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for pre-compensation of downlink communication based on a transmission of a request for the pre-compensation from a user equipment (UE). For example, the UE may determine an impairment at the UE that has a greater severity (a greater impact on downlink communication) or is associated with a greater amount of resources for processing relative to a remainder of a set of impairments that is experienced at the UE and the UE may transmit a request for pre-compensation of the impairment by a base station. The base station may transmit feedback to the UE indicating a confirmation of pre-compensation for the impairment by the base station or to deferment of compensation for the impairment back to the UE. If the base station acknowledges pre-compensation for the impairment, the base station may pre-compensate a downlink transmission to the UE for the impairment.
