Abstract:
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, devices, systems and methods of power management in a wireless network. For example, a first wireless station may be configured to transmit a frame to a second wireless station during a first beacon interval, the frame including an indication that the first wireless station is to switch to a low power mode; switch to the low power mode; operate at an active mode during an awake window in a second beacon interval subsequent to the first beacon interval; and upon receipt of an announcement traffic indication message (ATIM) from the second wireless station during the awake window, transmit an acknowledgement to the second wireless station, and stay at the active mode to communicate data with the second wireless station.
Abstract:
In a communication device and communication method, channel quality information for first and the second communication protocols is calculated. Further, allocation information can be generated for the first and the second communication protocols based on the corresponding channel quality information. Sequence numbers of corresponding data frames to be transmitted by the communication device can be generated. Further, the data frames and corresponding sequence numbers can be allocated to the first and the second communication protocols based on the allocation information.
Abstract:
A network profile grouping method for a communication device is described. In a network profile grouping method, wireless characteristics of a plurality of wireless access points (APs) are determined. Two or more APs of the plurality of APs are matched together based on the determined wireless characteristics. A group profile identification (ID) is assigned to the matched two or more APs to group the matched two or more APs together.
Abstract:
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems, devices and/or methods of packet coalescing. For example, an apparatus may include circuitry and logic configured to cause a first wireless station to process a notification from a second wireless station including transmit (Tx) packet coalescing information, the Tx packet coalescing information including packet type information to define one or more packet types for packet coalescing at the first wireless station, and a coalescing threshold indicator to indicate a coalescing threshold to limit the packet coalescing at the first wireless station; to coalesce a plurality of packets for the second wireless station by buffering the plurality of packets at the first wireless station, the plurality of packets having at least one of the one or more packet types; and, based at least on the coalescing threshold, to process one or more buffered packets of the plurality of packets for transmission to the second wireless station.
Abstract:
Generally discussed herein are devices and methods for media agnostic (MA) universal serial bus (USB) device enumeration. A device can include a transceiver and processing circuitry to perform a first enumeration process including the transceiver and processing circuitry to determine that throughput is denied based on a throughput negotiation performed in response to receiving a new device connection notification from an MA USB device attempting to communicate with the MA USB host, in response to a determination the throughput is denied, monitor the throughput available on the MA USB host to determine whether the throughput available on the MA USB host has increased, generate a throughput change notification in response to a determination the throughput available on the MA USB host has increased, and initiate a second enumeration process in response to a determination the throughput available on the MA USB host has increased.
Abstract:
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, devices, systems and methods of wireless communication to a plurality of wireless stations. For example, a wireless station may be configured to assign to a plurality of data units a respective plurality of increasing sequence numbers (SNs); and to transmit one or more directional transmission sequences in one or more respective directions over a directional frequency band.
Abstract:
Technologies for improving enumeration of universal serial bus (USB) devices over a media agnostic USB (MAUSB) connection are disclosed. In the illustrative embodiment, an MAUSB device may send USB configuration data to a host compute device. The host compute device may then perform a virtual enumeration of the USB devices based on the USB configuration data without necessarily communicating with the USB devices. The MAUSB device may perform an enumeration of the USB devices on behalf of the host compute devices without necessarily communicating with the host compute device. The USB devices may not be aware or have any indication that the USB device is not communicating with the host compute device during the enumeration process. Such an approach may improve the latency of USB enumeration over an MAUSB connection.

Abstract:
A method for operating a media agnostic universal serial bus (MAUSB) device includes a compute device having a link connection manager, a USB manager, and a state manager. The compute device establishes a link with a MAUSB device and a session with the MAUSB device. Subsequently to receipt of a sleep command for the compute device, the compute device transitions to a sleep state and terminates the link with the MAUSB device while keeping intact the session with the MAUSB device. The compute device transitions back to an active state in response to receipt of a wake command for the compute device. The compute device sends a wake request to the MAUSB device. If the MAUSB device responds to the wake request with an acceptance, then the compute device reestablishes the previous session with the MAUSB device. If instead an error is received, the compute device terminates the session.
