Abstract: Aspects described herein include a method comprising receiving an initial Fine Timing Measurement (FTM) request from an Initiating Station (ISTA), determining a priority classification of the ISTA relative to other ISTAs, and determining, based at least partly on the priority classification, whether to accept the initial FTM request.

Abstract: Fine Time Measurement (FTM) Location Configuration Information (LCI) protection and, specifically, FTM LCI protection with authentication and selective client enablement may be provided. To perform FTM LCI protection, a controller may first obtain a key-pair including a public key and a private key from a Certificate Authority (CA). The controller my determine a venue location where an Access Point (AP) is located. The controller may send a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) with the venue location to the CA. In response to sending the CSR, the controller may receive a public key certificate from the CA, wherein the public key certificate includes the venue location. The AP may receive a request for Location Configuration Information (LCI) from a Station (STA), wherein the LCI includes an AP location. The AP creates a hash of LCI of the AP using the private key and sends the LCI and the hash to the STA.

Abstract: Wireless dynamic file exchange is provided by, in response to a triggering network condition occurring, initiating an exchange of a parameter file including non-layer two content via a 802.11 message, such as a Generic Advertisement Service (GAS) message between an access point (AP) and a station (STA) connected to the AP; and in response to determining that the exchange was unsuccessful, terminating a connection between the AP and the STA. The parameter file may be sent over several messages and update the parameters for a new session or an existing session. Devices that do not conform to the updated parameters may be disassociated from the AP and re-connect to receive and implement the updated parameters.

Abstract: Resource Unit (RU) sharing between Access Points in a wireless network is provided by identifying a first Access Point (AP) associated with a first user device, wherein the first AP has won contention for a RU; identifying a second AP associated with a second user device, wherein the first user device and the second user device are located within an overlapping area served by the first AP and the second AP; identifying an unused portion of the RU to which the first AP has not scheduled traffic between the first AP and the first user device; and assigning the unused portion to the second AP for communication between the second AP and the second user device.

Abstract: Dynamic policy mapping is provided via mapping, by an Access Point (AP), a plurality of applications to a set of privilege groups for Quality of Service (QoS) levels in a network; transmitting the mapping of the privilege groups to a client device; receiving packets from the client device including QoS markers; and in response to determining that the QoS markers received from the client device do not match the privilege groups for the packets, performing a corrective action on the client device, wherein the corrective action includes one or more of: disassociating the client device from the network; and retransmitting the set of privilege groups to the client device. In some embodiments, the privilege groups are transmitted before the client device is associated with the AP, enabling the client device to select what AP to associate with based on the privilege groups.

Abstract: Wireless dynamic file exchange is provided by, in response to a triggering network condition occurring, initiating an exchange of a parameter file including non-layer two content via at least one 802.11 message, such as a Generic Advertisement Service (GAS) message between an access point (AP) and a station (STA) connected to the AP; and in response to determining that the exchange was unsuccessful, terminating a connection between the AP and the STA. The parameter file may be sent over several messages and update the parameters for a new session or an existing session. Devices that do not conform to the updated parameters may be disassociated from the AP and re-connect to receive and implement the updated parameters.

Abstract: Techniques for routing data in a wireless communication network including a hybrid of infrastructure wireless local area network (WLAN) and neighbor awareness networking (NAN). A subscription is identified between a first NAN device in a first NAN cluster in the network and a second NAN device in a second NAN cluster in the network. The first NAN cluster includes at least one NAN device not included in the second NAN cluster. A first path is generated between the first NAN device and the second NAN device. The first path includes a first network access point (AP) in the network. Data is transmitted from the first NAN device to the second NAN device using the first path comprising the first AP.
