    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, components, devices, and systems that support information exchanges for coordinated access point (CAP) operations. Some aspects more specifically relate to transmitting and receiving CAP-specific parameters to facilitate transmit opportunity (TXOP) sharing between a first access point (AP) and one or more second APs. For example, the first AP (such as a sharing AP) may use CAP-specific parameters provided by the one or more second APs (such as shared APs) to determine a CAP sharing schedule for a TXOP. The CAP-specific parameters may include static capability parameters and dynamic parameters. The static capability parameters may include supported CAP modes, association identifiers (AIDs), and processing times, while the dynamic parameters may include medium access demands, traffic priority information, and service period information. The first AP may advertise the CAP sharing schedule to the one or more second APs via an announcement frame.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, components, devices, and systems for enhanced downlink (DL) data delivery. Some aspects more specifically relate to reducing the latency and power consumption associated with delivering DL buffered units (BUs) to stations (STAs) in an enhanced delivery mode. In some implementations, an access point (AP) may transmit an indication of queue information associated with one or more pending DL BUs for a STA. The AP may identify a set of operational parameters to use for transmission of the one or more pending DL BUs in accordance with the queue information. Likewise, the STA may identify a set of operational parameters to use for reception of the one or more pending DL BUs in accordance with the queue information. The AP may transmit the one or more pending DL BUs to the STA in accordance with the queue information and the set of operational parameters.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus for wireless communications. In one aspect, an apparatus may obtain, for a first access point (AP), a first service set identifier (SSID) associated with single-link communications and obtain, for a second AP, a second SSID associated with multi-link communications. The apparatus may obtain, from a wireless communication device, a management frame include a multi-link operation information field that carries a first SSID and obtain a multi-link indication for the wireless communication device based, at least in part, on the first SSID, the multi-link indication indicating whether the wireless communication device includes AP capable of link aggregation, and selectively associate with the wireless communication device based on the multi-link indication.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, components, devices and systems for machine learning models for spatial reuse. Some aspects more specifically relate to machine learning (ML) models for spatial reuse (SR). In some aspects, an access point (AP) may transmit ML model information to a station (STA). The ML model information may include an indication of an ML model, one or more parameters defining the ML model, one or more inputs for the ML model, one or more outputs for the ML model, or any combination thereof. A transmitting device may generate one or more inputs for the ML model, which may be local measurements or observations, input values indicated by one or more other STAs, information provided by an AP, one or more inferences (such as a candidate SR parameter value, or candidate action), or a combination thereof.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for synchronized channel access. Some implementations more specifically relate to facilitating coexistence among wireless communication devices that support synchronized channel access and those that do not. A group of access points may schedule periodically recurring, synchronized channel access periods by periodically transmitting quiet elements. The quiet elements establish recurring quiet periods during which legacy devices are not permitted to transmit. In some implementations, an access point may transmit one or more quiet override elements each associated with a respective quiet element and indicating to other access points supporting synchronized channel access that they are permitted to contend for access during the respective quiet period. In some other implementations of synchronized channel access, an access point supporting synchronized channel access that wins contention after one or more consecutive synchronized channel access periods during which no other synchronized access points won contention, may be entitled to an extended TXOP.

    Abstract: A first Multi-AP device configured as a Multi-AP Agent transmits, to a second Multi-AP device configured as a Multi-AP Controller over a first communication link, a Device Provisioning Protocol (DPP) Configuration Request Message indicating multi-link operation (MLO) capabilities of the first Multi-AP device. The first Multi-AP device receives, from the second Multi-AP device over the first communication link, a DPP Configuration Response Message indicating MLO association information responsive to the indicated MLO capabilities, and establishes a backhaul path with a third Multi-AP device, configured as a second Multi-AP Agent, on the first communication link and one or more second communication links according to the MLO association information. The MLO capabilities may be indicated in a DPP Configuration Object of the DPP Configuration Request Message, and the MLO association information may be indicated in a multi-link device (MLD) address field of a DPP Configuration Object of the DPP Configuration Response Message.

    Abstract: Aspects relate to multi-link communication. In some examples, a communication frame carries a multi-link information element (ML IE). The ML IE includes a bitmap and one or more information sub-elements. In some examples, the bitmap indicates the links of a set of radio links to which the information sub-elements apply. In some examples, a frame may carry multiple ML IEs. In some examples, different ML IEs in the same frame may include the same bitmap, where the different ML IEs may carry different information sub-elements for the radio links indicated by the bitmap. In some examples, an ML IE serves to indicate that information sub-elements that are located in the frame body of the frame at a location that precedes the ML IE in the frame body apply to different radio links than the radio links indicated by the bitmap of the ML IE.
