Abstract: Systems and methods for wireless communications are disclosed. More particularly, aspects generally relate to techniques for indicating a minimum and maximum channel bandwidth in a frame (e.g., short frame). One or more bits in the frame, for example a management frame, may indicate both minimum and maximum bandwidths for communicating in the network. According to aspects, a wireless terminal may determine the minimum and maximum bandwidths for communicating in the network based on a mapping of different values of the one or more bits to combinations of minimum and maximum bandwidths. While any field in the frame may indicate the minimum and maximum bandwidth, according to aspects, the Basic Service Set (BSS) bandwidth (BW) field may be used for the indication.

Abstract: A method includes generating a data packet at an access point. The data packet is to be communicated using a waveform that includes a first set of tones that is allocated to a first destination device and a second set of tones that is allocated to a second destination device. The first set of tones is non-overlapping with respect to the second set of tones, and each tone of the first set of tones and each tone of the second set of tones is an orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) tone. The method also includes transmitting the data packet to the first destination device via an institute of electrical and electronics engineers (IEEE) 802.11 wireless network and transmitting the data packet to the second destination device via the IEEE 802.11 wireless network.

Abstract: A device may signal a resource allocation scheme in a high efficiency wireless local area network (WLAN) preamble. In one example, a high efficiency (HE) WLAN signaling field is used to signal a resource allocation pattern to multiple devices. The HE WLAN signaling field includes a common user field that is decodable by the multiple devices and includes a resource allocation field. The resource allocation indicates resource unit distributions to the multiple devices and indicates which resource units in a multi-user PPDU correspond to multi-user MIMO transmissions and which resource units correspond to OFDMA single-user transmissions. The HE WLAN signaling field also includes dedicated user fields that are assigned to certain devices. The order of the dedicated user fields corresponds to the allocated resource units. The HE WLAN signaling field is transmitted with a WLAN preamble to the multiple devices.

Abstract: Methods and systems disclosed provide for clear channel assessment of first and second communication channels. In one aspect, a first primary channel has a first frequency spectrum bandwidth and a second primary channel has a second frequency spectrum bandwidth including the first frequency spectrum bandwidth. A method may include performing a first back-off procedure based on whether the first primary channel is idle if a transmission bandwidth for a wireless message is the first frequency spectrum bandwidth, performing a second back-off procedure based on whether the second primary channel is idle if the transmission bandwidth for the wireless message is greater than the first frequency spectrum bandwidth, and transmitting the wireless message based on a completion of the performed back off procedure.
