    Abstract: An example system may comprise a millimeter wave (mmWave) transmitting device including instructions executable to: identify a plurality of mmWave signal transmission paths from the mmWave transmitting device to a receiving device; collect a channel measurement for each beam of a first portion of beams available at the mmWave transmitting device at each signal transmission path of the plurality of mmWave signal transmission paths; determine a plurality of properties of each signal transmission path of the plurality of mmWave signal transmission paths utilizing the corresponding channel measurements; predict, based on the plurality of properties, a signal metric for a second portion of the beams; and select, based on the predicted signal metric, a beam from the beams to be utilized to transmit a signal to the receiving device.

    Abstract: In some examples, a system can include a processing resource and a memory resource. The memory resource can store machine readable instructions to cause the processing resource to: (1) collect feedback from a physical (PHY)-layer of a client at a plurality of access points, before the client is associated with any one of the plurality of access points and (2) select an access point using a client channel correlation value calculated from the PHY-layer feedback, wherein the selected access point serves the client and a client group concurrently using precoding.

    Abstract: An example communications device includes communications circuitry and control circuitry. The communications circuitry may wirelessly communicate with client devices. The control circuitry may determine signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratios (SINRs) for the client devices based on compressed client-side channel state information received from the client devices. The control circuitry may assign the client devices to multi-user-multiple-input-multiple-output (MU-MIMO) groups based on the SINRs.

    Abstract: Example system may comprise a network controller including a processing resource and instructions executable by the processing resource to: receive, from a first access point in a network, properties of a first millimeter Wave (mmWave) signal path between the first access point and a computing device associated with the first access point; predict, utilizing the properties of the first mmWave signal path, properties of a second mmWave signal path between a second access point in the network and the computing device; predict, utilizing the predicted properties of the second mmWave path, a beam strength for the second access point; and assign a rank to the second access point according to the beam strength.

    Abstract: An example communications device includes communications circuitry and control circuitry. The communications circuitry may wirelessly communicate with client devices. The control circuitry may determine signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratios (SINRs) for the client devices based on compressed client-side channel state information received from the client devices. The control circuitry may select, based on the SINRs and in consideration of multiple possible bandwidth settings, a set of multi-user-multiple-input-multiple-output (MU-MIMO) groups each with an assigned bandwidth setting.
