Abstract:
At least one Multi User Multiple Input Multiple Output MU-MIMO beam pattern (3) formed by an array of antenna elements (14) at an access point (1) of a point to multi-point wireless communication network comprising a plurality of subscriber modules is stabilised to correct for a change in orientation of the array between a first time interval and a second time interval. An output of a gyroscopic sensor (12) is processed to generate first phase corrections for the first time interval and second phase corrections for the second time interval. Signal propagation characteristics between each antenna element of the array and each of a first (2) and second (4) subscriber module are measured for the first time interval and, based on the measured signal propagation characteristics, the first phase corrections and the second phase corrections, a MU-MIMO beam pattern is formed for the second time interval having a main lobe towards the first (2) subscriber module and a null towards the second (4) subscriber module.
Abstract:
In a multi user multiple input multiple output MU-MIMO wireless communication network comprising an access point (1) and a plurality of subscriber modules (2a-2g), a method of channel sounding comprises forming a respective MU-MIMO beam from the access point to each subscriber module of a first sounding group of subscriber modules by applying a beamforming weightset to a weighting matrix (12), the beamforming weightset having been determined on the basis of previously determined channel estimates. Each MU- MIMO beam is used to transmit a respective sounding symbol (24a, 24b, 24c), each respective sounding symbol being different from each other sounding symbol of the first sounding group. A first sounding symbol is received at a first subscriber module of the first sounding group, and it is determined whether to send a response message to the access point in response to the receipt of the first sounding symbol on the basis of a determination of a received level of interference to the first sounding symbol.
Abstract:
A physical AP manages a plurality of BSSs through VAPs. The AP sends a trigger frame to reserve a TXOP including resource units the nodes access to transmit data during the reserved TXOP. To improve channel utilization, the trigger frame identifies a plurality of groups, nodes of which are allowed to access the resources units to transmit data during the reserved TXOP. Thus, the AP receives, during the reserved TXOP, data from one node of a first group identified in the trigger frame and data from one node (separate from the first one) of a second and separate group identified in the trigger frame. A single access by the AP to the medium is thus required, reducing the channel occupation due to control frames. In some embodiments, the number of trigger frames can be drastically reduce, while offering resource units to several BSSs.
Abstract:
Embodiments described herein provide a method for resource unit signaling with reduced data bits in a wireless local area network. At a wireless transceiver, a data frame may be obtained for transmission. The data frame includes a first preamble portion and a second preamble portion compliant with a wireless local area network communication protocol. When an available resource unit for transmitting the data frame is less than an allowed bandwidth, the first preamble portion and the second preamble portion may be configured with resource unit signaling bits. When the available resource unit is greater than or equal to the allowed bandwidth, the resource unit may be virtually divided into a plurality of channels. At least one of the first preamble portion and the second preamble portion may be configured with a first number of bits representing a number of users spatially multiplexed on a channel from the plurality of channels.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a first mobile station may determine at least one of a channel between the first mobile station and a second mobile station or a relative direction between the first mobile station and the second mobile station. The first mobile station may apply nulling to a communication between the first mobile station and a base station based at least in part on the at least one of the channel between the first mobile station and the second mobile station or the relative direction between the first mobile station and the second mobile station. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In some systems, a base station may transmit subband uplink precoding information to a user equipment (UE). The base station may transmit a first control message to the UE to indicate a set of downlink resources for a downlink message associated with the subband uplink precoding information for the UE. The base station may transmit a second control message to the UE to indicate a set of uplink resources for an uplink message. The base station may transmit the downlink message to the UE via the set of downlink resources indicated by the first control message. The downlink message, the second control message, or both may include the subband uplink precoding information for the UE. The UE may transmit an uplink message to the base station via the set of uplink resources using the subband uplink precoding information.
