    摘要: Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to communicating time-critical ultra-low latency (ULL) data using one or more dedicated resource units (RUs). A station (STA) decodes a trigger frame received from an access point station (AP) encoded to indicate resource units (RUs) of an UL PPDU for an uplink multi-user orthogonal frequency division multiple access (UL MU OFDMA) data transmission by a first and a second station STA. The trigger frame may also be encoded to indicate configuration information for a dedicated RU for time-critical ultra-low latency (ULL) UL data. The dedicated RU may be one RU of one or more RUs of the UL PPDU that are reserved for time-critical communications. The STA may encode time-critical ULL UL data for transmission to the AP on the dedicated RU during the uplink MU OFDMA data transmission by the first and second STAs. The time-critical ULL UL data may start at any time during transmission of the UL PPDU. Medium access control layer (MAC) padding may be included in a MAC payload until the time-critical ULL UL data is available at the MAC layer of the STA.

    摘要: Methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for ultra-low latency out-of-band radios are disclosed. Apparatuses of a station (STA) are disclosed, where the apparatuses comprise processing circuitry configured to associate with an access point (AP) on a first channel using a first transmit power, encode a physical (PHY) protocol data unit (PPDU) for transmission on a second channel, and configure the STA to transmit the PPDU on the second channel with a second transmit power, wherein a bandwidth of the first channel is less than the bandwidth of the second channel and wherein the first transmit power is greater than the second transmit power. The second channel may be punctured based on overlapping basic service sets (BSS) (OBSSs) signal strengths. The use of the second channel is restricted for communications related to low-latency applications. The transmit power on the second channel is reduced to lower the interference with OBSSs.

    摘要: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to multi-link traffic steering. A device may establish one or more links with a station multi-link device (STA MLD), wherein the STA MLD comprises one or more logical entities defining separate station devices. The device may generate a traffic indication map (TIM) bitmap of a plurality of bits, wherein one or more bits are associated with an association identification (AID) corresponding to the STA MLD. The device may set the one or more bits to a first value to indicate that there is data to be retrieved by the STA MLD on any of the one or more links. The device may generate one or more beacon frames each comprising a same TIM element, wherein the TIM element comprises the TIM bitmap. The device may cause to send one or more beacon frames on each of the one or more links.

    摘要: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to multi-link power save indication. A device may establish two or more links with a non-access point (AP) multi-link device (MLD). The device may connect a first AP of the AP MLD to a first station device (STA) of the non-AP MLD using a first link. The device may connect a second AP of the AP MLD to a second STA of the non-AP MLD using a second link. The device may use a link bitmap field included in a frame, wherein the link bitmap field comprises a first bit associated with the first STA and a second bit associated with the second STA. The device may communicate with the non-AP MLD based on the link bitmap.
