Abstract: MU-MIMO provides a mechanism for a wireless network device to transmit to multiple client devices at the same time. When employing MU-MIMO, a network device may group two or more associated client devices, and transmit beamformed signals to each group. In some implementations, a network device may initiate channel sounding. Channel sounding may include transmitting sounding frames to client devices associated with two or more basic service sets. Channel sounding may facilitate beamforming transmissions to client devices associated with the two or more basic service sets. The network device may receive feedback frames from client devices associated with the two or more basic service sets. A feedback frame may indicate how a sounding frame was received. In some implementations, the network device may further construct a feedback table from the feedback frames. The feedback table may facilitate grouping of the client devices for beamforming transmissions.

Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method and a network device for partitioning data sets for transmission on multiple physical links in a network. Specifically, a network device receives a particular data set addressed to a client device. The network device partitions the particular data set into at least a first subset of data and a second subset of data. Then, the network device encapsulates the first subset of data using a first header and encapsulating the second subset of data using a second header that results in (a) data with the first header being transmitted on a first physical link and (b) data with the second header being transmitted on a second physical link different than the first physical link. Finally, the network device transmits the first subset of data with the first header and the second subset of data with the second header.

Abstract: A method for performing aggregation at one or more layers starts with an AP placing at a first layer one or more received frames in a queue at the AP. When a transmit scheduler is ready to transmit an aggregated frame corresponding to the queue, the AP may iteratively select a plurality of frames selected from the one or more received frames, and aggregate at the first layer the plurality of frames into the aggregated frame. The number of frames included in an aggregated frame may be based on at least one of: a dynamically updated rate of transmission associated with a size of the frames, a class of the frames, a transmission opportunity value associated with the class of the frames and a total projected airtime for transmitting the aggregated frame. Other embodiments are also described.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system, apparatus, and method for reducing self-interference within a wireless network device using channel state information feedback and beamforming techniques. The self-interference within a device may be reduced by first transmitting, by a first circuitry, a first set signals using a first radiation pattern through a first set of antennas coupled with the first circuitry. Then, based on feedback information associated with the first set of signals detected by a second circuitry of the device, a second radiation pattern to be used by the first circuitry and the first set of antennas that reduces receipt of signals by the second circuitry that are transmitted by the first set of antennas or leaked from the first circuitry may be determined. Thereafter, a second set of signals may be transmitted by the first set of antennas using the second radiation pattern.

Additionally, based on the information, the network device can dynamically select a number of packets, from a second set of packets, to queue at hardware components with channel bandwidth selection for transmission by the hardware components; and can queue the selected number of packets at the hardware components with channel bandwidth selection.

Abstract: A method includes selecting upstream and downstream aggregated MAC service data unit (AMSDU) sizes for communications between a client device, an access point, and an controller in a network system. The upstream and downstream AMSDU sizes may be separately selected based on the maximum transmission unit (MTU) size for communications in a secure tunnel between the controller and the access point to avoid fragmentation and reassembly of AMSDUs transmitted in a single MTU. The upstream and downstream AMSDU sizes may be selected to be less or equal to the MTU size.
