    Abstract: A first network device including a first calibration module to generate training signals for each of a plurality of subcarriers. The training signals are transmitted from the first network device to a second network device via antennas of the first network device using the subcarriers. A first steering module receives a first matrix for each subcarrier, which includes channel state information for each of the training signals received by the second network device, from the second network device according to a transmission schedule and generates a steering matrix based on the first matrix. The transmission schedule is predetermined or is transmitted to the second network device prior to transmitting the training signals. A first control module adjusts, based on the steering matrix, first beamforming weights associated with the antennas to direct first radio frequency signals to be transmitted toward the second network device.

    Abstract: A first communication device allocates respective portions of a communication channel, that includes at least one primary component channel and one or more non-primary component channels, to a plurality of second communication devices, including a bandwidth-limited second communication device configured to operate with a maximum bandwidth that is less than a full bandwidth of the communication channel. The bandwidth-limited second communication device is operating in a particular component channel, and allocation of a frequency portion to the bandwidth-limited second communication device is restricted to the particular component channel. The first communication device transmits a data unit that includes one or both of: respective data for the second communication devices in the respective frequency portions allocated to the respective second communication devices, and one or more trigger frames to prompt transmission of respective data by the second communication devices in the respective frequency portions allocated to the respective second communication devices.

    Abstract: A communication device generates a first data unit that spans a first bandwidth, and transmits the first data unit during a transmit opportunity (TXOP) to at least one other communication device. The communication device subsequently determines, based on respective values of TXOP duration fields included in respective physical layer (PHY) preambles of one or more data units previously transmitted during the TXOP, whether a second bandwidth of a second data unit to be transmitted by the communication device during the TXOP can be greater than the first bandwidth of the first data unit. In response to determining that the second bandwidth of the second data unit can be greater than the first bandwidth of the first data unit, the communication device generates the second data unit to span the second bandwidth greater than the first bandwidth, and transmits the second data unit during the TXOP.

    Abstract: An access point generates a management communication frame, that includes information indicating network parameters of a wireless communication network, for transmission in an operating channel of the wireless communication network. The operating channel including i) at least one primary component channel used at least for synchronizing with client stations associated with the access point and ii) at least one scanning channel specified, by the first communication protocol, to be used for scanning by client stations not associated with the access point. The access point generates a physical layer data unit to include the management communication frame, and transmits the physical layer data unit in the at least one scanning channel, specified by the first communication protocol, to allow discovery of the wireless communication network by client stations that are not associated with the access point.

    Abstract: A first medium access control (MAC) service data unit (MSDU), intended for a communication device of multiple communication devices, is divided into a plurality of fragments. First and second groups of MAC protocol data units (MPDUs) intended for the multiple communication devices are generated and one or more transceivers are controlled to transmit first and second orthogonal frequency division multiple access data units that include the first and second groups, respectively, to the multiple communication devices. The first group includes a first MPDU that includes a first fragment of the plurality of fragments and is an only MPDU of the first group intended for the communication device. The second group includes a second MPDU that includes the first MSDU in its entirety and is included in the second group in response to determining that the first fragment was not properly received and/or decoded by the communication device.

    Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods and apparatus for enabling spontaneous location determination in a scheduled wireless communication environment. For example embodiments, a first wireless communication device includes a transceiver and a multiple recipient communication system. The transceiver is configured to receive from a second wireless communication device a request to participate in a location determination procedure (LDP) that is to occur at least partially during a communication period that is assigned to a third wireless communication device. The multiple recipient communication system is configured to generate a multiple recipient frame that encapsulates (i) data that is destined for the third wireless communication device and (ii) a response to the request to participate in the LDP. For other example embodiments, a multiple recipient communication system of the second wireless communication device is configured to extract the response to the request to participate in the LDP from the multiple recipient frame.
