Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to specifying possible default spatial reuse (SR) modes and signaling of the default spatial reuse modes. Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications. The method generally includes generating a frame that provides an indication, to a secondary recipient of the frame, of how to use spatial reuse (SR) information and transmitting the frame. Another provided method for wireless communications generally includes receiving, from a first node, a first frame that provides an indication of how to use spatial reuse (SR) information, determining if a signal strength of the first frame exceeds a threshold, generating a second frame for transmission to a second node, and if the signal strength of the first frame does not exceed the threshold, transmitting the second frame during a period when the first frame is being transmitted.

Abstract: In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be an AP that requests a plurality of STAs to jointly enable and disable an MRP based on at least one of that each STA of the STAs has uplink traffic with the AP or that each STA of a subset of the STAs has a hidden node. The AP receives, from the STAs, information indicating a communication metric while jointly enabling or disabling the MRP. The AP determines, based on the received information indicating the communication metric, whether the joint enablement of the medium reserving procedure improves communication for the plurality of STAs. The AP requests the STAs to jointly enable the medium reserving procedure for subsequent communication when the joint enablement of the medium reserving procedure improves communication for the plurality of STAs.
