    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provides a system for detecting data received in a low power low rate (LPLR) data frame format. A mixed mode LPLR frame may be falsely detected by an 802.11n device as an 802.11n packet. When the false detection occurs, the PHY-CAA indication may be erroneously set, which leads to a communication error. To prevent the false detection by an 802.11n device, embodiments described herein describes adding a redundant “dummy” 4 μs orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol with binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) modulation before the LPLR preamble in the LPLR frame, to differentiate from data symbols in an 802.11n packet.

    Abstract: Various embodiments relate to a method for transmitting a Wi-Fi signal using a channel of 80 MHz or wider, wherein each 80 MHz segment has a tone plan, including: determining that a physical 20 MHz sub-channel overlaps the 80 MHz segment or OFDMA transmission is used for the 80 MHz segment; selecting an alternative 80 MHz tone plan; and transmitting data on the 80 MHz segment using the selected alternative 80 MHz tone plan.

    Abstract: Embodiments of a method and an apparatus for wireless communications are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method for wireless communications involves encoding bits in a first preamble portion of a packet that are defined on a per-channel basis and that are repeated across multiple frequency blocks of a bandwidth, encoding bits in a second preamble portion of the packet that are defined on the per-channel basis and that are repeated within at least one frequency block of the bandwidth, encoding bits in a third preamble portion of the packet that are defined on a two-channel basis and that are repeated within at least one frequency block of the bandwidth, padding the third preamble portion of the packet to have a same length for each of the frequency blocks, and transmitting the packet.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses are disclosed herein for aligning HE-LTFs corresponding to a plurality of users by determining a respective number of spatial streams corresponding to each user, determining a highest respective number of spatial streams of the spatial streams, and setting an alignment number of HE-LTF symbols to be equal to or larger than the highest respective number of spatial streams. For each respective user, a respective matrix of HE-LTF symbols corresponding to the respective number of spatial streams of the respective user is selected, and it is determined whether the respective matrix of HE-LTF symbols has fewer symbols than the alignment number. In response to determining that the respective matrix of HE-LTF symbols has fewer symbols than the alignment number, padding symbols may be added to the respective matrix to yield a number of HE-LTF symbols in the respective matrix that corresponds to the alignment number.

    Abstract: The present disclosure includes systems and techniques relating to multi-antenna coherent combining (MACC) for carrier sensing (CS) and symbol timing (ST) in a wireless communication system. In some implementations, a device includes a receiver and processor electronics. The receiver is configured to receive two or more signals from two or more antennas, each of the two or more signals including a known, periodic reference signal that has gone through a respective wireless channel via one of the two or more antennas. The processor electronics are configured to obtain estimated phases of the two or more signals from the two or more antennas; obtain a combined signal by combining the two or more signals with coherent estimated phases of the two or more signals; and perform carrier sensing and symbol timing of the two or more signals based on the combined signal.

    Abstract: A communication device receives a physical layer (PHY) protocol data unit (PPDU). The PPDU includes i) a PHY preamble and ii) PHY data portion that includes one or more PHY midambles, and the PHY preamble includes i) an indication of a length of the PPDU, and ii) an indication of a periodicity of PHY midambles in the PHY data portion. The communication device calculates a number of PHY midambles in the PPDU using i) the indication of the length of the PPDU, and ii) the indication of the periodicity of PHY midambles. The communication device calculates a reception time for the PPDU using the calculated number of PHY midambles, and processes the PPDU using the calculated reception time.
