Abstract:
Systems, devices, and methods for mitigating collisions between wireless transmissions operating at different bandwidths are disclosed. As such, a wireless device operating at a predefined bandwidth includes a transceiver that receives a signal across a wireless channel, a filter that generates a band-limited filtered signal at the predefined bandwidth of the wireless device, a correlating mechanism that correlates the band-limited filtered signal with a delayed, conjugated version of the band-limited filtered signal, logic that performs a moving average of the correlated filtered signals to determine correlation peaks, and logic configured to compare the correlation peaks with a predetermined threshold. With this configuration, if the correlation peaks are greater than the predetermined threshold, the received signal is determined to operate at a wider bandwidth than the predefined bandwidth of the wireless device, and the wireless device defers accessing the wireless channel to transmit until a predetermined time interval.
Abstract:
Examples are disclosed for updating a wireless communication channel estimation. In some examples, a packet may be transmitted or received via a communication channel, the packet having one or more pilot signals that may shift between subcarrier frequencies based on a predetermined first variable associated with a first time duration. A second variable associated with a second time duration may be determined by the receiver of the data packet. The second variable may enable a receiver of the data packet to decide how many pilot signals may be used to update an initial channel estimation for the communication channel. Other examples are described and claimed.
