摘要:
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating packets having a plurality of types are described herein. In some aspects, the packets include a compressed MAC header. In some aspects the packets include an acknowledgment (ACK) frame. The fields included in a particular packet type may be based on the type of information to be communicated to the receiving device.
摘要:
Methods, devices, and systems for retransmitting Media Access Control (MAC) protocol data units (MPDUs) in a multi-user multiple-input and multiple-output (MU-MIMO) communication system are disclosed. Concurrent data streams within a first transmission window are transmitted. Each concurrent data stream is associated with a different recipient and includes an equal number of MPDUs. An indication of a retransmission subset of the MPDUs to be retransmitted for each concurrent data stream may be obtained if errors are present. The retransmission subset for each concurrent data stream is retransmitted within a second transmission window. A length of the second transmission window is as long as the longest of the retransmission subsets of the concurrent data streams. One or more new MPDUs may be added to the concurrent data streams in the second transmission window so that each concurrent data stream in the second transmission window carries a same number of MPDUs.

摘要:
A method of facilitating a silence period in a directional communication network is provided. The method may comprise initiating, by a first apparatus, a listening period mode, wherein the listening period mode comprises ceasing at least a portion of current communication and configuring the first apparatus to receive a request to initiate a new communication, determining whether a request is received during a time period in the listening period mode, and transmitting a response if the request to initiate the new communication is received during the time period in the listening period mode.
