Abstract: Examples are disclosed for a reverse direction grant (RDG) on a wireless communication channel between a first wireless device and a second wireless device. In some examples, an RDG may be used by the second wireless device to transmit data over a communication channel for a wireless local area network (WLAN) reserved for use by the first wireless device during a transmit opportunity (TxOP) time period. For these examples, the second wireless device may acknowledge the RDG but may wait for expected data to arrive before transmitting data over the communication channel. Other examples are described and claimed.
