Abstract: Basic Service Set (BSS) resource reservation may be provided. BSS resource reservation may include determining a time window for a to accommodate a transmission of a target Station (STA) in a BSS, wherein the BSS further comprises one or more other STAs. An AP may then transmit a reservation scheduling frame, to claim access of a channel, inform the target STA of the time window, and reserve the channel for a duration defined by the time window.

Abstract: A device includes a memory and a hardware processor communicatively coupled to the memory. The hardware processor determines that a computing device communicatively coupled to an access point performed an action with respect to the access point and in response to determining that the action causes a deviation from a multi-user uplink policy of the access point, transmits a disciplinary message to the computing device.

Abstract: Automating and extending path tracing through wireless links is provided by receiving request to perform a network trace over a wireless link provided by an Access Point (AP) configured as a transparent forwarder between a trace source and a trace target; monitoring a trace packet from a first time of arrival at the AP, a first time of departure from the AP, a second time of arrival at the AP, and a second time of departure from the AP; monitoring a buffer status of the AP at the first time of arrival and the second time of arrival; and in response to identifying a network anomaly based on the trace packet and the buffer status, adjusting a network setting at the AP.

Abstract: Low Latency, Low Loss, Scalable Throughput (L4S) queuing and marking and, specifically, L4S parameters for congestion marking and a new congestion flag for predicted congestion events may be provided. Providing L4S marking can comprise determining, in layer 2, a packet is experiencing congestion. A L4S marking request is sent to layer 3 to request congestion marking of the packet. The packet is marked in layer 3 for congestion experienced A L4S marking response comprising the marked packet is then sent to layer 2.

Abstract: Multi-AP Coordination (MAPC) group with Multi-Link Device (MLD) awareness may be provided. Link information of one or more stations associated with each Access Point (AP) of a plurality of APs of a MAPC group may be received. The link information may include a Multi-Link Device (MLD) capability of each of the one or more stations. A proposed transmission schedule of a plurality of stations associated with the plurality of APs of the MAPC group may be received. Transmission Opportunities (TXOPs) for an upcoming interval may be assigned based on the proposed transmission schedule of the plurality of APs and the MLD capabilities of each of the plurality of stations.

Abstract: Provided herein are techniques for providing emergency telecommunication services and application driven profile prioritization for wireless local area network architectures. In one instance, a method can include facilitating, for an emergency call initiated by a wireless device, connection of the wireless device with a radio node; providing a location tag to the wireless device that is associated with a location of the wireless device; obtaining, by an emergency services identity provider, a session initiation protocol (SIP) registration request message from the wireless device that includes the location tag; determining, by the emergency services identity provider, a location of the wireless device based, at least in part, on the location tag; and facilitating the emergency call for the wireless device with a public safety answering point (PSAP) that is determined based on the location of the wireless device in which the location is provided to the PSAP.

Abstract: Irregular absence signaling may be provided. An Access Point (AP) may receive an irregular absence report from a station. The AP may parse the irregular absence report to determine upcoming absence periods of the station for non-Peer-to-Peer (P2P) traffic. The AP may schedule Transmit Opportunity's (TxOPs) of the non-P2P traffic to the station based on the determined upcoming absence periods.

Abstract: Secure device location sharing may be provided. Over a secured link, an indication that a peer-to-peer device desires Automated Frequency Coordination (AFC) based location sharing may be received. Then, from the peer-to-peer device over the secured link, an identity provider (IdP) may be received for the peer-to-peer device. Next, validation of the peer-to-peer device may be requested from the IdP. From the IdP in response to requesting validation of the peer-to-peer device from the IdP, authentication for the peer-to-peer device and an indication that the peer-to-peer device needs AFC based location sharing may be received. An indication that the peer-to-peer device is approved for AFC based location sharing may then be sent to the peer-to-peer device over the secured link.

Abstract: Differentiated service in a federation-based access network is provided by receiving, with a request for access to a wireless network offering at least a two different service levels based on user identities, a set of user credentials from a User Equipment (UE); forwarding, for authentication, the set of user credentials to an identity provider in an identity federation with the wireless network, wherein the identity provider is independent from the wireless network; in response to determining that the set of user credentials indicate a realm known to be associated with a given service level, providing network access to the UE according to the given service level; and in response to determining that the given service level is not a highest service level in the wireless network, transmitting a list of preferred realms to the UE that are associated with higher service levels than the given service level.
