In one aspect, a method for wireless communication includes generating a clear to send message comprising a specific medium access control address (MAC) identifiable by a first subset of a plurality of wireless devices as instructing not to update an associated network allocation vector according to a duration field in the clear to send message. The specific MAC address is not identifiable by a second subset of the plurality of wireless devices such that the second subset of the plurality of wireless devices are instructed to update an associated network allocation vector according to the duration field. The method further includes transmitting the message, thereby reserving wireless communication access for the first subset of the plurality of wireless devices. The specific MAC address is included in one or more address fields of a medium access control header of the message.

Abstract: A method includes determining, at a first transmitter, a clear channel access (CCA) threshold associated with reuse of a first transmit opportunity (TXOP) of a message. The method further includes sending, from the first transmitter to a first receiver, at least a portion of the message, wherein the portion of the message indicates the CCA threshold.

Abstract: A method of controlling transmissions includes receiving, at a first wireless device, a packet from a second wireless device over a particular channel in a network. The method also includes determining a transmission power of the packet and determining a clear channel assessment threshold for the particular channel based at least in part on the transmission power. The method further includes deferring transmissions over the particular channel to the second wireless device based on the clear channel assessment threshold.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for high-efficiency wireless frequency division multiplexing are provided. A method includes receiving, at a first wireless device, a reference signal from an associated access point, the reference signal indicative of a time of joint transmission with at least a second wireless device. The method further includes transmitting a first communication to the access point based on the reference signal, the communication utilizing a first subset of wireless frequencies available for use. The first communication is concurrent with a second communication, from the second wireless device, utilizing a second subset of wireless frequencies, the second subset excluding the first subset.

Abstract: A method for configuring channel access parameters in a wireless communication system includes selecting an element identification (ID) from a plurality of element IDs. Each of the plurality of element IDs identifies an enhanced distributed channel access (EDCA) parameter set element comprising at least one channel access parameter for at least one subset of wireless devices in a group of wireless devices. The selected element ID is identifiable by wireless devices of the group of wireless devices and not identifiable by other wireless devices. The method further includes generating the EDCA parameter set element for setting the at least one channel access parameter for each wireless device in the at least one subset. The EDCA parameter set element includes the selected element ID. The method further includes transmitting the EDCA parameter set element to at least one wireless device in the at least one subset of wireless devices.
