Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods for handling uplink frames in access point assisted roaming in a wireless local area network. A wireless device may establish a wireless association with a first access point. The wireless device may perform signaling to transition from the first access point to a second access point. The signaling may include an uplink reorder buffer handling request.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods for multi-access point association in a wireless local area network. Multiple access point wireless devices may establish a multi-access point system. Other access point wireless devices may subsequently join the multi-access point system. Non-access point wireless devices may form an association with the multi-access point system, which may include links with multiple different access point wireless devices in the multi-access point system.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods for managing uplink transmit opportunity bursting for wireless local area networking. A wireless device may initiate a transmit opportunity to perform an uplink transmission to an access point. The wireless device may receive an acknowledgement from the access point. The acknowledgement may include an indication that the wireless device can initiate a second transmit opportunity without wireless medium contention. The wireless device may initiate the second transmit opportunity without wireless medium contention based at least in part on the indication received from the access point.

Abstract: An electronic device (such as an access point) that provides a frame is described. This electronic device includes: an antenna node communicatively coupled to an antenna; and an interface circuit, communicatively coupled to the antenna node, that communicates with a second electronic device. During operation, the interface circuit may provide, addressed to the second electronic device, the frame that includes an indication that the electronic device uses a frame-based equipment (FBE) channel access technique and attributes of the FBE channel access technique. The attributes may include: a duration of the FBE channel access technique, and a fixed frame period (FFP) for communication during the FBE channel access technique. Moreover, the frame may be compatible with an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 standard.

Abstract: Payload transmission of multiple stations on a single resource unit may be performed. New and/or updated signaling may be introduced to enable a transmitter, e.g., an access point (AP), to include information/signaling in the preamble or in other frames. A receiver (e.g., a wireless station) that receives this information/signaling may accordingly determine in which RU it should decode to receive its allocated data or payload, allowing multiple receivers or STAs to share a single resource unit (RU). The new/updated signaling may include modified hybrid downlink multiuser signaling in Ultra High Reliability Signal (UHR-SIG), a group association identifier (gAID), a predefined special AID corresponding to an RU with use of a Bloom filter, multiple predefined special AIDs each corresponding to a non-overlapping group of wireless stations, and/or signaling announcing time sharing of single RUs.

Abstract: Methods, systems and apparatuses for performing enhanced integrity protection techniques by an access point (AP) and non-AP are described. A station (STA) can receive, from an access point (AP), an integrity protection (IP) capability request and transmit an IP capability response to the AP. The STA can receive, from the AP, one or more downlink (DL) frames comprising at least one adjusted parameter field of a plurality of parameter fields. The STA can verify, based on at least one value of the adjusted parameter field or one or more parameter fields of the plurality of parameter fields, that the one or more DL frames have been correctly received from the AP.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer-readable medium to perform operations including: during transmission of two or more physical layer protocol data units (PPDUs) during a transmission opportunity (TXOP), determining that an urgent PPDU should be transmitted during the TXOP; and enabling, before transmission of all of the two or more PPDUs during the TXOP, transmission of the urgent PPDU.
