    Abstract: A method of sub-channel independent network allocation vector (NAV) management by a wireless station (STA) in a wideband wireless communications system is proposed. In the wideband system having multiple sub-bands, each NAV for a corresponding sub-band is independently managed. The protection duration for each NAV is independent for each sub-band and the threshold or update rule for NAV modification is also independent for each sub-band. The threshold or update rule for NAV modification may also be different when the NAV is generated or propagated by an OBSS STA. Furthermore, early termination of NAV is allowed if the NAV is set by an OBSS STA only.

    Abstract translation: 提出了一种在宽带无线通信系统中由无线站(STA)进行子信道独立网络分配向量(NAV)管理的方法。 在具有多个子带的宽带系统中,用于相应子带的每个NAV被独立地管理。 每个NAV的保护持续时间对于每个子带是独立的,并且用于NAV修改的阈值或更新规则对于每个子带也是独立的。 当NAV由OBSS STA生成或传播时,NAV修改的阈值或更新规则也可能不同。 此外,如果NAV仅由OBSS STA设置,则允许提前终止NAV。

    Abstract: Methods are provided for concurrent communications among multiple wireless communications devices. In one novel aspect, the wireless station transmits a wideband signal to a plurality of wireless communications devices using downlink MIMO and/or OFDMA. The wireless station receives a plurality of responding frames from the plurality of wireless communications devices concurrently using OFDMA. In one embodiment, the wireless station transmits a MU indication bit and MU bandwidth assignment information in the downlink MIMO and/or OFDMA frames. In another novel aspect, the uplink responding frames from multiple wireless communications devices are sent on a corresponding narrow concurrently over more than one transmission instance. AP polling or SIFS only is used between two transmission instances. When the concurrent responding frames occupies less than a bandwidth of an available uplink OFDMA bandwidth, the unoccupied bandwidth is either left empty or occupied by one or more duplicated responding frames.

    Abstract: A method of performing contention-based uplink OFDMA transmission is proposed in accordance with one novel aspect. A wireless communications station (an AP) reserves both dedicated resource and contention resource for uplink OFDMA operation for a list of communications devices (STAs). For contention-based random access, the AP does not need to collect traffic requests from the STAs. The AP only needs to make simple resource arrangement. The AP only needs to specify the allocated resource for random access and the uplink OFDMA operation duration and timing for each uplink OFDMA packet. Each STA having traffic request will contend the resource based on a random access probability scheme.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for clear channel assessment in the Wifi network. In one novel aspect, different clear channel assessment (CCA) threshold value is set for intra-BSS and inter-BSS frames during the counting down process. A CCA procedure senses the radio channel and determines if the radio channel is busy or idle during the backoff period by comparing the signal level value of detected fames with the CCA threshold value. The counting down will be suspended if the radio channel determined to be busy. If the detected frame is inter-BSS frame, the CCA threshold value is raised. If the signal level of the detected frames is lower than the inter-BSS CCA threshold for inter-BSS fames, the radio channel is considered idle. The counting down process is resumed.

    Abstract: A method of performing OFDMA transmission with aggregation from multiple access categories to improve channel utilization of a wireless channel is proposed. In one novel aspect, data from multiple access categories are allowed to be aggregated and transmitted in the same packet to utilize idle time efficiently. In downlink OFDMA, AP can send different AC data to different STAs so that AP can better arrange the transmission resource block. If the resource for one STA has long enough idle time, AP can aggregate more data that is different to the current AC for the same STA to better utilize the resource. In UL OFDMA, different STAs can send different AC data to AP. If the resource for one STA has long enough idle time, the STA can aggregate more data that is different to the current AC to better utilize the resource.
