Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communication are provided. In one aspect, an apparatus may be configured to determining a TWT schedule. The apparatus may be configured to broadcast a message that includes the TWT schedule to a number of wireless devices. The message may include a broadcast indicator that indicates the TWT schedule is a broadcast TWT schedule. In another aspect, an apparatus may be configured to receive from a second wireless device a message that includes a TWT schedule. The message may include a broadcast indicator that indicates the TWT schedule is a broadcast TWT schedule. The apparatus may be configured to determine one or more TWTs for the apparatus based on the TWT schedule.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communication are provided. In an aspect, an apparatus may be configured to determine whether to switch to an active mode, a power save mode, or a TWT power save mode. During the TWT power save mode, the apparatus may enter an awake state during TWT service periods and may enter a doze state outside of the TWT service periods. The apparatus may transmit a message to a second wireless device based on the determination.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide an apparatus for wireless communications. The apparatus generally includes a processing system configured to generate a data frame based on a compressed data frame format and to include control information in at least one field of the data frame, wherein the at least one field is not specified in the compressed data frame format and an interface for outputting the data frame for transmission. Another example apparatus generally includes a processing system configured to generate a frame having a first one or more bits indicating whether the frame has a compressed format and a second one or more bits indicating which of one or more fields are absent if the frame has a compressed format and an interface for outputting the frame for transmission.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communications and, more particularly, to ultra low-power paging frames for wake up and discovery. One example apparatus for wireless communications generally includes at least one interface configured to receive via a first radio and a second radio, wherein the at least one interface receives a paging frame from another apparatus via the second radio while the first radio is in a first power state that is lower than a second power state of the second radio; and a processing system configured to take one or more actions based on a command field included in the paging frame.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication in an IEEE 802.11 wireless communication system including legacy and high-efficiency wireless (HEW) devices are described herein. In some aspects, a method includes configuring transmission of a first communication for at least partially protecting reception of a second communication. The method further includes transmitting the first communication, the first communication being decodable by the legacy devices. The method further includes transmitting the second communication, the second communication being decodable by the HEW devices.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for multi user bar protocols and frames. According to certain aspects, an apparatus is provided for wireless communications. The apparatus generally includes a processing system configured to determine that a plurality of devices have a first capability and generate a multi-user (MU) packet that solicits an immediate response from a plurality of the devices, wherein the immediate response comprises an acknowledgment (ACK) or block ACK (BA) and an interface configured to output the MU packet for transmission.
Abstract:
In a power save scheme, signaling and information transfers are scheduled to increase the amount of time a device in a wireless system can operate in power save mode. Multiple periods of time are allocated for signaling and for information transfer during a beacon interval. Control signaling during a signaling block indicates whether a given device should be awake for an information transfer during a subsequent information transfer period during the beacon interval. Thus, based on the indication, the device determines whether to be awake or asleep during the information transfer period.
Abstract:
Disclosed are techniques for environment sensing. In an aspect, a transmitter base station determines a configuration for a radio frequency (RF) sensing signal, the configuration determined based at least in part on coordination among a plurality of base stations, and transmits the RF sensing signal to at least one receiver base station based on the configuration. In an aspect, a receiver base station receives a configuration for an RF sensing signal, the configuration determined based at least in part on coordination among a plurality of base stations, receives, from at least one transmitter base station, the RF sensing signal, and detects at least one target object based, at least in part, on reception of the RF sensing signal.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for mobility management. A method of wireless communications by a user equipment includes obtaining one or more criteria associated with triggering at least one of cell measurement or handover. The one or more updated criteria are based at least in part on network environment perception information. The method includes obtaining one or more updated criteria associated with the triggering at least one of cell measurement or handover.
Abstract:
Disclosed are techniques for allocating resources for environment sensing. In an aspect, a base station transmits a first radar reference signal (RRS) on a first set of resources comprising first time resources, first frequency resources, first spatial resources, or any combination thereof, wherein the first set of resources is selected to enable a first user equipment (UE) to perform a first type of environment sensing, and transmits a second RRS on a second set of resources comprising second time resources, second frequency resources, second spatial resources, or any combination thereof, wherein the second set of resources is selected to enable a second UE to perform a second type of environment sensing, wherein the second set of resources is different from the first set of resources, and wherein the second type of environment sensing is different from the first type of environment sensing.
