  • Patent number: 12133103
    Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic channel representations are described. Initially a sensing receiver receives a sensing transmission. The sensing receiver then generates a sensing measurement based on the sensing transmission. Thereafter, the sensing receiver generates a channel representation information of a propagation channel between the sensing receiver and a sensing transmitter based on the sensing measurement. The sensing receiver then obtains a sensing imprint representing a steady-state propagation channel between the sensing receiver and the sensing transmitter. Further, the sensing receiver compares the channel representation information to the sensing imprint and identifies a difference between the channel representation information and the sensing imprint. The sensing receiver may further send the channel representation information to a sensing algorithm manager.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for supporting prioritized transmission opportunity (TXOP) sharing in wireless communications systems, e.g., various 802.11 wireless communications systems, are described. A wireless station may be allocated a transmission opportunity. A shared transmission type of trigger frame is implemented, which allows the wireless station, acting as a host station, to make available transmission resources, which have been acquired by the wireless station, to one or more guest stations. A trigger based (TB) frame, corresponding to the transmitted shared transmission type trigger frame, is used by the host station and one or more guest stations to transmit data to an access point.

  • Patent number: 12028847
    Abstract: Latency reduction techniques for radio access networks are described. In various embodiments, a reduced transmission time interval (rTTI) may be implemented in order to reduce air interface latency in a radio access network. In some embodiments, an rTTI block may be defined, and some operations may be performed in rTTI block-wise fashion in order to reduce the marginal overhead associated with implementation of the rTTI. In various embodiments in which an rTTI is implemented, DM-RS granularity may be improved by use of techniques that enable data and reference signals to be multiplexed within a same OFDM symbol. In some embodiments, a current transmission time interval (TTI) may be maintained, and latency reduction may be achieved via the use of novel techniques for one or more of code block (CB) segmentation, uplink (UL) resource element (RE) mapping, and HARQ cycle timing.
