    Abstract: There is a need to support narrowband TDD frame structure for narrowband communications. The present disclosure provides a solution by supporting one or more narrowband TDD frame structure(s) for narrowband communications. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may determine to transmit a narrowband physical downlink channel in a subframe in a narrowband TDD frame structure of a plurality of narrowband TDD frame structures for narrowband communications. In addition, the apparatus may determine whether the subframe is a special subframe or a downlink subframe when the narrowband TDD frame structure includes one or more special subframes. Further, the apparatus may determine how to transmit a narrowband physical downlink channel based on the determination whether the subframe is a special subframe or a downlink subframe. Additionally, the apparatus may transmit the narrowband physical downlink channel.

    Abstract: There is a need to support narrowband TDD frame structure for narrowband communications. The present disclosure provides a solution by supporting one or more narrowband TDD frame structure(s) for narrowband communications. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may determine a TDD mode for narrowband communications. The apparatus may determine a TDD frame structure for the narrowband communications from a group of narrowband TDD frame structures. In one aspect, at least one common subframe in each narrowband TDD frame structure in the group of narrowband TDD frame structures may be configured as a downlink subframe. The apparatus may transmit a PSS using the at least one common subframe in the narrowband TDD frame structure determined for the narrowband communications.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for communicating over a 60 GHz band and reusing legacy hardware for communication over sub-6 bands. Certain aspects are directed to outputting, for transmission to a second wireless device, a first packet, wherein the first packet is output via a radio frequency (RF) front end defined by a first clock accuracy requirement having an acceptable error rate that is lower than a legacy clock accuracy requirement, and wherein the first packet is output for transmission via a first band. Certain aspects are directed to obtaining, from the second wireless device, a second packet via the first band.

    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, components, devices and systems for interference reduction between wireless communication devices of overlapping basic service sets (OBSSs). Some aspects more specifically relate to signaling mechanisms associated with an OBSS channel sounding operation and power control mechanisms associated with OBSS interference mitigation, either or both of which a first access point (AP) associated with a first basic service set (BSS) may leverage as part of a coordinated beamforming scheme with a second AP associated with a second BSS. In accordance with OBSS channel sounding, the first AP may associate a set of sounding packets with one or more parameters indicative of the second BSS such that the sounding packets appear, to OBSS stations (STAs), as in-BSS sounding packets. Additionally, or alternatively, the first AP may employ a power control mechanism according to which the first AP may apply portion-by-portion transmission power control.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Techniques described herein provide for passive beamforming for Wi-Fi. A first wireless device communicating in an active session via a first bandwidth with a second wireless device may use a passive beamforming technique to identify a transmission sector of the second wireless device and/or a receive sector for communications on a second bandwidth, while the first wireless device is in an inactive session state for the second bandwidth. The second wireless device may transmit beacons in the second bandwidth via directional transmission sectors while the first wireless device is in the inactive session state for the second bandwidth. The first wireless device may receive the beacons and may select a transmission sector based on the beacons. The first wireless device may indicate the selected transmission sector to the second wireless device. The first wireless device may select a receive sector based on the beacons.

    Abstract: In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. In addition, the apparatus may determine a first set of subframes in the narrowband TDD frame structure used for transmitting a downlink control channel to a UE. In one aspect, a last subframe in the first set of subframes may be subframe n. Further, the apparatus may determine a second set of subframes in the narrowband TDD frame structure used for transmitting a downlink data channel to the UE. In certain aspects, a first subframe in the second set of subframes may be delayed based on k0 number of subframes after the subframe n. In certain other aspects, a last subframe in the second set of subframes may be subframe n+k0+x. Additionally, the apparatus may signal first information associated with the k0 number of subframes to the UE in a first delay field in a DCI transmission.
