Various methods and apparatuses for channel selection based on energy levels are disclosed. In one aspect, an apparatus for communication is disclosed, the apparatus comprising a processing system configured to determine, for each of one or more channels, a plurality of energy levels of a respective plurality of signals received via a respective plurality of beam directions and to select one of the channels based on the determined energy levels and a transceiver configured to communicate over the selected channel.
摘要:
A method to support distributed beacon transmission in a directional communication network is provided. The method may comprise receiving, by a second apparatus, a first reference signal from a first apparatus, wherein the first reference signal comprises network shared information associated with a first network and specific information associated with the first apparatus, generating a second reference signal by updating the network shared information in the first reference signal to include specific information associated with second apparatus, and transmitting the second reference signal at a defined time, wherein the defined time is selected to minimize any interference associated with a subsequent transmission of the first reference signal by the first apparatus.
摘要:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure support techniques for simultaneous beam training of multiple pairs of wireless nodes for reduction of training overhead. Each pair of wireless nodes can utilize a different training sequence in order to mitigate interference. In one aspect, different training sequences can be based on different Golay codes with appropriate correlation properties.
摘要:
Various methods and apparatuses for transmitting an allocation of time in a wireless communication system are disclosed. In one aspect, an allocation of time for receiving communications via a receive beam direction is transmitted. The allocation of time may be based on information regarding an apparatus known to be located in the receive beam direction. A unique time for receiving communications from each known apparatus may be allocated, or a duration of time for receiving communications from the known apparatuses may vary based on a number of apparatuses known to located in a receive beam direction.
摘要:
A method for wireless communications is provided that includes receiving a plurality of packets using a first radio link from an apparatus; reconstructing an index for the plurality of packets for use in a second radio link; determining reception state information indicating whether each packet in the plurality of packets has been received correctly; and receiving additional packets based on the index and the reception state information. Apparatuses for performing the methods are also disclosed.
摘要:
Aspects of the present disclosure propose a method for determining preferred transmit and receive antenna patterns of a wireless device with respect to another wireless device. The method generally includes determining the beamforming or calibrating coefficients corresponding to the preferred transmit and receive antenna patterns of a wireless device iteratively.
