Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to enhanced L-SIG. A device may generate a frame for 60 gigahertz (GHz) transmission, the frame comprising one or more fields to carry information associated with one or more station devices (STAs). The device may generate a special legacy signal (L-SIG) field comprising one or more subfields for operation in the 60 gigahertz (GHz) transmission. The device may include the L-SIG field in the frame. The device may cause to send the frame to the one or more STAs.

Abstract: Methodologies are presented that provide better uplink and downlink data throughput for cell-edge stations (CE STAs) in wireless networks. In downlink, two or more access points (AP) can work in concert to code a signal such that each AP sends a portion of the data during concurrent transmissions. To further enhance the data throughput of a CE STA, each link between the CE STA and one of the APs can have different characteristics or parameters, for example, a different modulation and coding scheme (MCS). The different characteristics or parameters are communicated to the CE STA through one of various signals sent to the CE STA to allow the CE STA to receive the portions of data over the differently configured links.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to defer signal that may be for prioritized access as part of a communication protocol. A device may generate a defer signal to be used with a prioritized access for one or more station devices (STAs). The device may include a rate field and a length field in the defer signal. The device may cause to send the defer signal to the one or more STAs. The benefit of the disclosed defer signal is that that legacy devices may understand it and defer for a certain duration because of the defer signal, all while keeping the defer signal as small as possible to save time.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to prioritized access. A device may broadcast advertisements to stations (STAs) indicating specific service periods for prioritized channel access within a Basic Service Set (BSS). The device may send an indication to the STAs queued for prioritized access to transmit reservation signals at a predetermined time post a start of a contention period. The device may send contention window (CW) parameter settings to the STAs to control their backoff counter values during periods of prioritized access contention. The device may detect reception of overlapping reservation signals from STAs and enforce clear channel assessment (CCA) protocol to cause STAs to defer their transmissions.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to enhanced BSS roaming. A device may generate a basic service set transition management (BTM) query frame comprising one or more fields. The device may include an indication of an intent to receive information from an associated AP, wherein the information is related to preserving one or more agreements with a target neighbor AP recommended by the associated AP. The device may cause to send the frame to the AP. The device may identify a BTM request frame received from the associated AP.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to channel access for multi-link devices (MLDs). A MLD may identify a first backoff count associated with a first enhanced distributed channel access function (EDCAF) for a first communication link used by the MLD; identify a second backoff count associated with a second EDCAF for a second communication link used by the MLD, the first backoff count less than the second backoff count; determine a time period after that the first backoff count reaches zero and during which to refrain from transmitting using the first communication link, the time period based on the second backoff count; determine that the first communication link transitioned from an idle state to a busy state during the time period; and generate a third backoff count associated with the first EDCAF based on the first communication link transitioning to the busy state during the time period.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to enhanced access category (AC) traffic management. A device may receive one or more frames via a network interface, wherein each of the one or more frames comprises a header. The device may analyze the header of a first frame of the one or more frames to determine prioritization based on predefined criteria. The device may assign and route the first frame to appropriate Access Categories (AC) and Traffic Identifications (TID) based on the prioritization. The device may utilize established dual queuing for each AC, comprising a deep buffer queue and a shallow buffer queue. The device may direct prioritized, low latency frames to the shallow buffer queue. The device may control traffic flow via the deep buffer queue or the shallow buffer queue based on the assigned TID for each AC.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to an extreme high throughput (EHT) signaling structure. A device may establish a communication channel with one or more station devices (STAs). The device may generate an extreme high throughput signal field (EHT-SIG) of a header, wherein the EHT-SIG field comprises information associated with resource allocations (RUs). The device may generate a frame comprising the header. The device may assign a first RU to a first station device. The device may assign a second RU to the first station device, wherein the first RU or the second RU is an aggregation of a 26-tome RU and a neighboring RU. The device may cause to send the frame to the first station device.
