Abstract: Described are methods and devices for increasing the efficiency of Wi-Fi networks by increased spatial reuse, which refers to sharing the same wireless spectral resources over different spatial regions. A described technique for doing this is for a Wi-Fi device to increase the threshold of the clear channel assessment (CCA) so as to ignore and regard as interference the transmissions from other devices. The sensing range of the Wi-Fi device then decreases, and the spatial resource can be reused by different Wi-Fi devices in different spatial locations.

Abstract: This disclosure describes methods, apparatuses, and wireless stations related to waking up low power radios. In particular, a wireless station is disclosed that may identify a first management frame from a first wireless station a first management frame from a first wireless station. The wireless station may cause to allocate one or more group identifications (IDs) to the first wireless station. The wireless station may cause to generate a bitmap corresponding to the allocation of the one or more group IDs to the first wireless station. The wireless station may cause to send a second management frame to the first wireless station of one or more wireless stations, wherein the second management frame comprises the bitmap.

Abstract: Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems and/or methods of terminating a Neighbor Awareness Networking (NAN) path. For example, an apparatus may include logic and circuitry configured to cause a first NAN device to transmit a message including a NAN Data Link (NDL) attribute corresponding to an NDL with a second NAN device, the NDL attribute including a Maximal (Max) Idle Period field to indicate a time period during which the second NAN device is allowed to refrain from transmitting over the NDL without the NDL being terminated; and to allow the first NAN device to terminate all NAN Data Paths (NDPs) over the NDL, if any frame is not received from the second NAN device for at least the time period indicated by the Max Idle Period field.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to wake-up radio (WUR) advertisement channels. A device may include a wake-up receiver (WURx) and a primary connectivity radio. The device may determine a wake-up radio (WUR) discovery subchannel for WUR advertisement. The WUR discovery subchannel may be associated with a channel of a frequency band. The device may generate a WUR discovery frame comprising a WUR advertisement. The device may transmit, by the WURx, the WUR discovery frame to a second device using the WUR discovery subchannel. The device may identify a response from the second device indicating an acknowledgment of the WUR discovery frame.

Abstract: Methods and devices are described for providing wireless stations (STAs) with two sets of enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA) parameters. Legacy EDCA parameters that are for single user (SU) operations and may be used by both high-efficiency (HE) STAs and legacy STAs without multi-user (MU) capability. MU EDCA parameters are defined to be more restrictive than legacy EDCA parameters in favoring MU operations. Embodiments are described that define sets of rules for regulating how STAs capable of both SU and MU uplink operations can use the different sets of EDCA parameters.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for location measurement reporting in a wireless network are disclosed. An apparatus of an initiator station (ISTA), where the apparatus comprises processing circuitry configured to encode a null data packet announce (NDPA) frame for transmission to a responder station (RSTA), the NDPA frame indicating a sounding sequence number, and encode a first null data packet (NDP) for transmission at a time T1 to the RSTA. The processing circuitry may be further configured to: decode a second NDP, the second NDP received from the RSTA, wherein the second NDP is received at a time T4, and decode a first location measurement report (LMR). The processing circuitry may be further configured to in response to an ISTA-to-RSTA LMR feedback agreement between the RSTA and ISTA indicating the ISTA is to send a second LMR, encode a second LMR.

Abstract: Interference management techniques for full-duplex wireless communications are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may comprise logic, at least a portion of which is in hardware, the logic to initiate a downlink (DL) transmission procedure for sending a DL data transmission, and during the DL transmission procedure, send an interference-contingent uplink (UL) transmission invitation identifying a destination of the DL data transmission and begin receiving a UL data transmission in response to the interference-contingent UL transmission invitation. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
