Abstract:
A method includes generating, at a second wireless device, a signal (SIG) unit to be transmitted to a first wireless device. The SIG unit includes a length field and an aggregation field. In response to determining to use aggregated transmission to the first wireless device, the method further includes setting the aggregation field to a first value and setting the length field to a number of symbols. In response to determining not to use the aggregated transmission to the first wireless device, the method further includes setting the aggregation field to a second value and setting the length field to a number of bytes.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication. In one aspect, an apparatus for wireless communication is provided. The apparatus includes a receiver configured to receive a wireless signal comprising a packet. At least a portion of the wireless signal is configured to be received over a bandwidth lower than or equal to 1.25 MHz. The packet is formed from at least one orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol comprising thirty-two tones. The thirty-two tones correspond to frequency subcarriers within the bandwidth. The thirty-two tones of the at least one OFDM symbol are allocated as: twenty-four data tones, two pilot tones, five guard tones, and one direct current (DC) tone. The apparatus includes a processor configured to evaluate the wireless signal. The processor includes a transform module configured to convert the at least one OFDM symbol into a frequency domain signal using a thirty-two point mode.
Abstract:
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.

Abstract:
A method includes wirelessly communicating with one or more stations that are partitioned into one or more groups. The method also includes generating a message that identifies one or more time periods during which each station of a first group of the one or more groups is permitted to contend for a communication channel or restricted from contending for the communication channel. The method further includes transmitting the message.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to a method for forwarding of data in peer-to-peer transactions by a high-capability wireless device, such as an access point.
Abstract:
A method includes receiving, at a wireless device, a frame via a sub-1 gigahertz (GHz) wireless network. The frame includes a signal (SIG) unit including a length field and an aggregation field. The length field may be interpreted as a number of bytes or as a number of symbols based on a value of the aggregation field and based on whether the frame is associated with a 1 megahertz (MHz) bandwidth mode, based on whether the frame includes either a short format preamble or a long format preamble, or based on whether the frame is determined to be a single user (SU) frame or a multi user (MU) frame.
