Abstract: A method and an apparatus for wireless communication are provided. In one configuration, an apparatus is configured to transmit a wake-up radio (WUR) signal, to determine to transmit a second signal within a SIFS after transmitting the WUR signal to increase medium reuse, and to transmit the second signal within the SIFS after transmitting the WUR signal based on the determination. The second signal may be a data, management, control, ACK, or CF-end frame to enable legacy devices that do not decode the WUR signal to avoid wasted airtime cause by EIFS after the WUR signal. In another configuration, the apparatus is configured to transmit a CTS-to-self frame, to determine to transmit a second signal within a SIFS after transmitting the CTS-to-self frame, and to transmit the second signal based on the determination. The second signal may be a WUR signal or an intermediate signal followed by a WUR signal.

Abstract: Systems, devices, apparatus and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, are disclosed for an access point (AP) in a basic service set (BSS) to advertise or indicate 320 MHz bandwidth operation and frequency segment composition in the 320 MHz bandwidth to one or more stations (STAs) in a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). Also, a WLAN device may advertise or indicate its 320 MHz bandwidth support capability to other WLAN devices in the WLAN.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides various aspects related to techniques for generating trigger frames, at an AP, that reduce the overhead associated with triggering an uplink transmission from the STA. In some examples, the STA may also calculate its transmit power by decoding a spatial reuse subfield of the trigger frame from the AP and identifying downlink pathloss measurements of the trigger frame. Accordingly, the STA may identify acceptable interference level of the AP and calculate a transmit power in order to minimize interference at the AP. In some aspects, the STA may transmit its uplink packets to a different AP on one or more punctured channels at the calculated transmit power of the STA.

Abstract: Various aspects of the disclosure relate to communication using a data unit that includes at least one mid-amble. In some aspects, an apparatus may use mid-ambles for mobility scenarios (e.g., when the apparatus is moving outdoors). The disclosure relates in some aspects to signaling associated with the use of mid-ambles. In some aspects, an apparatus may signal whether it supports sending and/or receiving data with mid-ambles. In some aspects, an apparatus may signal whether a particular data unit includes at least one mid-amble. In some aspects, an apparatus may signal an indication of at least one mid-amble update interval. In some aspects, an apparatus may signal whether a mid-amble includes a short training field.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for coordination between multiple access points (APs) for communications within a transmission opportunity (TxOP). A first AP may gain channel access for a TxOP, and may coordinate with at least a second AP to allow both the first AP and the second AP to transmit and receive wireless communications during the TxOP. The first AP, upon gaining channel access following a successful contention-based channel access procedure, may initiate a scheduling phase with the second AP to schedule of resources within the TxOP for the first and second APs. The first AP may initiate a multi-AP coordinated transmission phase following the scheduling phase, during which both the first AP and second AP may communicate with one or more associated STAs.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A transmitting device may transmit a wakeup message to another device. The wakeup message may be transmitted using a transmit diversity scheme in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure. The transmit diversity may, for example, include a cyclic shift diversity scheme, a phase rotation scheme, a symbol generation scheme, or combinations thereof. The transmit diversity may in some cases improve a communication range of the wakeup message or otherwise benefit the wireless communications system.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for selecting network parameters based on feedback in a wireless network. An access point (AP) may collect feedback information from a plurality of stations (STAs). The AP may broadcast out queries seeking information to the STAs. The AP may collect statistics about network parameters preferred by the STAs. The AP may select a network parameter based at least in part on collecting the statistics. The AP may collect the statistics without identifying the individual STAs that are responding. The AP may gather responses using a two-message system, where a first message informs the STAs about the feedback being requested and a second message requests that the STAs transmit the feedback to the AP.

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: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A wireless device, such as a device in a wireless local area network, may use a radio frame structure that includes a high efficiency (HE) signal field and an HE data field for communications, for example, over shared radio frequency spectrum. One or more bits or symbols within the HE signal field may be adjusted to avoid a high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). In some cases, the adjustment may be to a signal A (SIG-A) or signal B (SIG-B) field. In some examples, a random bit sequence may be used for padding in a signal field. In other examples, bits may be reversed or scrambled. In yet other examples, bits may be modulated and a phase rotation may be applied to the corresponding signal.
