  • Patent number: 11683212
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for transmitting an EHT PPDU to a WLAN system are proposed. Specifically, a transmitter generates and transmits an EHT PPDU to a receiver through a 320 MHz band from which an 80 MHz band is punctured. The EHT PPDU includes a legacy preamble and an EHT field. The legacy preamble includes an L-STF and an L-LTF. The legacy preamble is generated by applying a first phase rotation value. The first phase rotation value is obtained on the basis of a second phase rotation value and a third phase rotation value. The second phase rotation value is a phase rotation value that repeats a phase rotation value defined for the 80 MHz band in an 802.11ax system. The third phase rotation value is a phase rotation value defined in unit of the 80 MHz band in the 320 MHz band on the basis of an optimal PAPR of the L-STF and L-LTF. The first phase rotation value is [1 1 ?1 ?1 ?j ?j j j 1 1 ?1 ?1 ?j ?j j j].

  • Patent number: 11677603
    Abstract: Wireless communications systems may configure a subset of allocated resources (e.g., one or more resource elements (REs) of one or more allocated resource blocks (RBs)) as peak reduction tones (PRTs) for a peak-cancelation signal. For instance, wireless communications systems may configure a fixed PRT allocation based on a Costas array. In some examples, each column of a Costas array may correspond to a RB of a set of allocated resources. A transmitting device may thus identify one or more PRT REs based on the Costas array and a mapping of allocated RBs to the columns of the Costas array. For instance, a transmitting device may identify a pattern of PRT REs to use for a peak-cancellation signal based at least in part on a configured Costas array (e.g., where the peak-cancellation signal may reduce peaks of a corresponding data signal to ultimately reduce peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of a transmission).

  • Patent number: 11659580
    Abstract: Channel assignment for wireless access networks is directed toward improved overall communication capability of the networks. A network is formed of wireless access points (APs) coupled via wired (and/or wireless) links and enabled to communicate with clients via radio channels of each of the APs. Local information is collected at each of the APs and processed to determine channel assignments according to a Neighbor Impact Metric (NIM) that accounts for one-hop and two-hop neighbors as well as neighbors not part of the network. Optionally, the NIM accounts for traffic load on the APs. The channel assignments are determined either on a centralized resource (such as a server or one of the APs) or via a distributed scheme across the APs. The local information includes how busy a channel is and local operating conditions such as error rate and interference levels.
