    Abstract: According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method, including receiving, by a wireless device of a first wireless network, a control request frame from a second access node of a second wireless network, the control request frame including at least a number of nulls for the wireless device. The wireless device selects a subset of antenna elements, wherein the number of antenna elements is in accordance with the number of nulls for the wireless device, and the antenna elements are selected based on reception powers of antenna elements of at least a frame from a first access node of the first wireless network and/or the second access node of the second wireless network. The wireless device transmits a control response frame with the selected antenna elements, and a data frame to the first access node with the selected antenna elements.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to device, method, apparatus and computer readable storage medium of power control of spatial reuse for supporting TSC in the unlicensed band. The method comprises in accordance with a determination that a sounding packet is transmitted from a second device, determining CSI of channels between the second device and the third device; determining, at least partially based on the CSI, an applicable transmitting power for a first transmission from the first device to a fourth device during a second transmission for a reception of the feedback of the at least one packet sent from a third device to the second device; and performing the first transmission based on the applicable transmitting power during the second transmission. In this way, a transmission of DL TSC packets that has a time scheduling requirement in contrast with the spatial reuse time window can be achieved. Meanwhile, the harmful interference to NOTSN AP during the Block Acknowledgement reception can be avoid.
