    摘要: A station (STA) (STA-1) configured for wireless local area network (WLAN) sensing establishes a sensing measurement agreement with another STA STA-2 to perform a sensing measurement setup with the other STA. The sensing measurement setup may comprise an exchange of sensing measurement request and response frames to establish sensing measurement parameters associated with a sensing measurement instance. The Sensing Measurement Setup Request frame and the Sensing Measurement Setup Response frame may be configurable to include a variable length Measurement Sensing Parameters field and a sensing sub-elements field to include one or more of the sensing measurement parameters. The sensing measurement parameters may, for example, comprise one or more of a bandwidth (BW) field, one or more fields for a number of space-time streams (STS) and a number of long-training field (LTF) and LTF repetitions that the STA is capable of transmitting and receiving, and an immediate or delayed feedback reporting field.

    摘要: Methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for wireless local area network (WLAN) private control channel are disclosed. Apparatuses of a non-access point (AP) or station (STA) are disclosed, where the apparatuses comprise processing circuitry configured to: decode a broadcast sensing parameters element, decode a broadcast target wakeup time (TWT) element, the TWT element comprising an indication of a TWT service period (SP), decode, during the TWT service period (SP), a sensing null data packet announcement (NDPA) frame, and decode, a short interframe space (SIFS) after receiving the sensing NDPA frame, an initiator-to-responder (I2R) null data packet (NDP).

    摘要: A multi-link access point (AP) device is configured for multi-link operation to communicate with a plurality of non-AP stations (STAs) over a plurality of corresponding links. A multi-link policy element is encoded for transmission to the non-AP STAs to signal a multi-link policy. The multi-link policy element comprises a common policy sub-element and a plurality of link-specific policy sub-elements. The common policy sub-element is applicable to all links. Each of the link-specific policy sub-elements is applicable to a single link. The link-specific policy sub-elements comprise at least a first link-specific policy sub-element applicable to a first link and a second link-specific policy sub-element applicable to a second link. The common policy sub-element defines a link policy for all links that have been set up between the multi-link AP device and the non-AP STAs. Each link-specific policy element defines a link policy specific to an associated link.

    摘要: An access point station (AP) configured for wireless local area network (WLAN) sensing may be configured to perform a sensing measurement setup with a non-AP station (non-AP STA). The sensing measurement setup may comprise an exchange of sensing measurement request and response frames to establish sensing measurement parameters for one or more sensing measurement instances including trigger-based and non-trigger based sensing measurement instances. The AP may perform sensing measurements with the non-AP STA by transmitting and/or receiving one or more null-data packets (NDPs) for a sensing measurement instance. The NDPs may be configured in accordance with the sensing measurement parameters. For performing a non-trigger based sensing measurement instance when the AP is operating a sensing responder and when reporting was indicated in a sensing measurement setup request frame received from the non-AP STA, the AP may encode a sensing measurement report for transmission to the non-AP STA.

    摘要: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to responder-to-responder Wi-Fi sensing between station devices. A device may cause to send, during a trigger frame sounding phase of a responder-to-responder Wi-Fi sensing, a sensing responder-to-responder sounding trigger frame to the first station device and the second station device, the sensing responder-to-responder sounding trigger frame associated with causing the first station device to send a responder-to-responder null data packet (NDP) to the second station device; cause to send, during a reporting phase of the responder-to-responder Wi-Fi sensing, a sensing report trigger frame to the second station device; and identify, during the reporting phase, a sensing measurement report from the second station device based on the sensing report trigger frame, wherein the sensing measurement report is indicative of measurements of the responder-to-responder NDP.

    摘要: For wireless local area network (WLAN) sensing, a non-access point (AP) station (STA) sends a Measurement Setup Query frame to an access point station (AP) to signal one or more preferred time windows of the STA indicating when the STA is available to perform WLAN sensing with the AP. The STA receives a Measurement Setup Request frame received from the AP in response to the Measurement Setup Query frame. The Measurement Setup Request frame may indicate a time-window that is either within one of the preferred time-windows of the STA or a new proposed time-window that is not within one of the preferred time-windows of the STA. The STA may send a Measurement Setup Response frame to the AP to indicate an acceptance when the indicated time-window is within one of the preferred time-windows. The STA may send the Measurement Setup Response frame to indicate a rejection when the indicated time-window is not acceptable to the STA for performing the WLAN sensing procedure.
