Abstract:
Methods and systems for next generation Wi-Fi are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes encoding, by an electronic device, a preamble, the preamble comprising: a green-field short training field, a first long training field, a second long training field, and a high efficiency signal A field following the short training field the first long training field and the second long training field. The method also includes encoding, by the electronic device, a frame comprising the preamble and data, and transmitting, by the electronic device, the frame over a wireless network. In some aspects, a relative polarity of the first and second training fields indicates whether the frame is a multi-user frame or a single user frame. In some other aspects, the high efficiency signal A field indicates, via an indicator having a predetermined value, whether the frame is a single user frame or a multi-user frame.
Abstract:
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatus related to narrowband tone allocation. A device may allocate a channel that includes one or more narrowband subchannels; determine a tone schedule having multiple tones associated with the channel, wherein the multiple tones comprise one or more channel guard tones, a direct current (DC) tone at about a center of each one of the one or more narrowband subchannels, and one or more subchannel guard tones, the one or more subchannel guard tones including a first subchannel guard tone at a first edge of a first narrowband subchannel, and a second subchannel guard tone at a second edge of a second narrowband subchannel. The device may cause to send a frame to one or more first devices using the one or more narrowband subchannels based on the tone schedule.
Abstract:
A spur cancelation system includes error circuitry, inverse spur circuitry, and injection circuitry. The error circuitry is configured to generate an error signal based at least on a first transceiver signal in a transceiver signal processing chain. The inverse spur circuitry is configured to, based at least on the error signal, determine a gain and a phase of a spur signal in the transceiver signal and generate an inverse spur signal based at least on the gain and the phase of the spur signal. The injection circuitry is configured to inject the inverse spur signal to cancel a spur in a second transceiver signal in the transceiver signal processing chain.
Abstract:
A wireless device configured to process Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) data streams. The wireless device includes a Singular Value Decompostion (SVD) engine configured to diagonalize a channel matrix into a precoding matrix; an SVD rotation engine configured to phase-rotate the precoding matrix, such that the channel matrix is partially de-diagnalized; and a transmitter configured to transmit a data packet corresponding to the phase-rotated precoding matrix.
Abstract:
Embodiments of an access point (AP), station (STA) and method for subcarrier scaling are generally described herein. The AP may transmit a high efficiency (HE) physical layer convergence procedure (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) that includes a legacy long training field (L-LTF), a legacy signal (L-SIG) field, and an HE signal (HE-SIG) field. The HE-SIG may be based on HE-SIG symbols mapped to a group of HE subcarriers that includes legacy subcarriers and HE extension subcarriers. The L-LTF may be based on L-LTF pilot symbols mapped to the legacy subcarriers. The L-SIG may be based on L-SIG legacy symbols mapped to the legacy subcarriers and L-SIG extension pilot symbols mapped to the HE extension subcarriers. The AP may scale a per-subcarrier power of the L-SIG extension pilot symbols to match a per-subcarrier power of the L-LTF pilot symbols.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus to facilitate configurable multi-channel communications in intelligent transportation systems for vehicular communications are disclosed. An example apparatus includes an interface to receive instructions to transmit a wideband transmission on two or more frequency channels of a frequency band; a digital processor to reserve a time slot for the wideband transmission; and a multi-channel communication determiner to configure the digital processor to transmit the wideband transmission using the two or more frequency channels; and ensure that the wideband transmission occurs concurrently on the two or more frequency channels by performing a wideband transmission synchronization.
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods, devices, and computer readable storage mediums for allocations in a set of long training fields to provide a capability for a large number of stations to provide a short response to an access point in a highly efficient manner. One aspect is an apparatus of a high efficiency (HE) access point (AP) (HE AP) comprising memory; and processing circuitry coupled to the memory, the processing circuity configured to encode a trigger frame to indicate a range including a plurality of high efficiency (HE) station (STA) (HE STA) identifiers, the trigger frame further indicating that first HE STAs having a HE STA identifier in the range of HE STA identifiers are to transmit a response to trigger frame; and configure the HE AP to transmit the trigger frame.
Abstract:
An apparatus and related method of a wireless device are provided to encode or decode one or more indication bits in a high-efficiency signal A (HE-SIG-A) field in a preamble of a physical layer convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) to indicate a backup mode that is a 4x long training field (LTF) with 0.8 µs cyclic prefix (CP) mode. One or more indication bits is selected from a Doppler bit, a dual carrier modulation (DCM) bit, a space-time block coding (STBC) bit, and a transmit beamforming (TxBF) bit. The PPDU is transmitted to or received from another wireless device.
