Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for multiple user communication are provided. In one aspect, method for wireless communication includes generating a packet comprising a multiple-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) portion and an orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) portion. The method further includes transmitting the packet over a packet transmission frequency bandwidth.
Abstract:
In a wireless network having a plurality of devices configured to communicate using a beamforming technique, a method includes sending a trigger packet from a first device of the wireless network to a plurality of second devices of the wireless network. The trigger packet includes trigger data configured to cause the plurality of second devices to perform channel measurement based on the trigger data. The method also includes receiving feedback information from each of the plurality of second devices in response to the trigger packet.
Abstract:
A method includes generating a data packet at a source device for transmission via an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers 802.11 wireless network. The data packet includes multiple data symbols that are duplicated in the data packet. At least a portion of a preamble of the data packet is not duplicated in the data packet. The portion of the preamble indicates that the packet is a low rate mode packet. The method also includes transmitting the data packet from the source device to a destination device via the wireless network.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating in a wireless network are provided. In some aspects, an access point may comprise a receiver configured to receive an access request message from a wireless station, the message comprising an indication of a plurality of network connection available to the wireless station including a link to a second access point. The receiver may be further configured to receive connectivity information associated with the link, based on the indication, from the second access point. The access point may further comprise a processor configured to determine whether to grant access to the wireless station based, at least in part, on the indication and the connectivity information, and a transmitter configured to transmit a response to the wireless station based on the determining.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating data in a wireless communications network are described herein. In some aspects, a wireless device includes a first receiver and a second receiver. The second receiver may be configured to consume less power than the first receiver. The second receiver receives a second signal wherein the second signal comprises a wake-up signal configured in NDP format including a signal field. The wireless device includes a circuit configured to take at least one action based on the second signal.
