摘要:
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating short control frames are described herein. In some aspects, a method of wireless communication includes generating a control frame comprising a physical layer preamble having a signal field, the signal field including an indicator indicating the control frame is a control frame type of frame. The method further includes transmitting the control frame.

Systems, methods, and devices for narrowband channel selection in a wireless communications network are described herein. In one aspect, a wireless communications device includes a receiver, processor, and transmitter. The receiver is configured to wirelessly receive messages from a first device over a plurality of channels. The processor is configured to estimate a quality of each channel based on one message received from the first device over each channel, select for wireless communication a first channel of the plurality of channels based on the estimated quality of each channel, and prepare a selection message indicating selection of the first channel for wireless communication. The transmitter is configured to transmit the selection message to the first device.

A method includes receiving a data fragment of a block of data fragments of a single data unit from a wireless device at a receiver. The method includes, in response to determining that the data fragment is a last data fragment of the block of data fragments, transmitting an acknowledgement to the wireless device. The acknowledgement indicates whether each data fragment of the block of data fragments was received from the wireless device. The method includes, in response to determining that the data fragment is a last data fragment of the single data unit, transmitting the acknowledgment to the wireless device. The method further includes, in response to determining that the data fragment is not the last data fragment of the block of data fragments or the last data fragment of the single data unit, refraining from transmitting the acknowledgement to the wireless device.

Systems, methods, and devices for securely communicating data are described herein. In some aspects, a station is configured to communicate with an access point. A relay includes an uncontrolled port and a controlled port. The relay is configured to forward association, authentication, and secure relay setup frames between the station and the access point through the uncontrolled port. The relay is configured to forward data packets between the station and the access point through the uncontrolled port once the station establishes a relay relationship with the relay.

Systems, methods, and devices for communicating data in a wireless communications network are described herein. In some aspects, an access point is configured to receive a request for relay connection and to transmit a message to at least one relay based on the received request for relay connection. The message comprises an instruction to transmit a setup response frame. A station is configured to transmit the request for relay connection to the access point and to select one of the at least one relay based on at least one setup response frame received from at least one of the at least one relay. The selected one of the at least one relay is configured to relay data packets between the station and the access point.

Systems, methods, and devices for compressing block acknowledgment (ACK) frames/packets are described herein. In some aspects, a method of communicating in a wireless network includes a compressed block acknowledgment frame including a bitmap, the bitmap indicating receipt of a plurality of fragments of a single data unit. The method further includes transmitting the compressed block acknowledgment frame.

Systems, methods, and devices for communicating short control frames are described herein. In some aspects, a method of wireless communication includes generating a control frame comprising a contention free end (CF-end) frame, the CF-end frame comprising a physical layer preamble having a type field, the type field including an indicator indicating the CF-end frame is a null data packet (NDP). The method further includes transmitting the control frame.
摘要:
Systems and methods for low overhead paging in a wireless communications network are described herein. In some aspects, an apparatus for wireless communication includes a receiver and a processor. The receiver receives a request from a first device. The request indicates a first period of a plurality of periods corresponding to a periodicity for transmitting paging messages. The processor assigns the first device to a group scheduled to receive paging messages at most every first period based on the request and determines a start time for transmitting paging messages to the first device based on schedules for transmitting paging messages to a plurality of other devices. In other aspects, an apparatus for wireless communication includes a processor and memory. The processor derives an information sub-unit from an information unit associated with a paging message, compresses the information sub-unit, and generates a second information unit associated with the method of compression.
