  • Patent number: 11962406
    Abstract: An extremely high-throughput (EHT) station (STA) may encode an EHT PPDU for transmission on a plurality of subchannels. The EHT STA may determine a spectral mask to apply to the EHT PPDU prior to transmission of the EHT PPDU. When preamble puncturing is performed, the EHT STA may apply an overall spectral mask to the EHT PPDU prior to transmission. The overall spectral mask may be based on an interim spectral mask and a preamble-puncture spectral mask. The subchannels may be in a 6 GHz band and the EHT STA may determine if preamble puncturing is to be performed for one or more of the subchannels based on a presence of incumbents in the one or more of the subchannels, although the scope of the embodiments is not limited in this respect.

  • Patent number: 11956728
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) supporting full duplex communications may determine that a set of downlink messages to be transmitted from a base station to the UE overlaps in time with a set of uplink messages to be transmitted from the UE. Accordingly, the UE may determine a downlink transmission power adjustment value for the set of downlink messages. In some examples, the base station may indicate the downlink transmission power adjustment value to the UE via radio resource control (RRC) signaling, a downlink control information (DCI) message, or both. The UE may transmit the set of uplink messages while simultaneously receiving the set of downlink messages with a transmission power that corresponds to the downlink transmission power adjustment value. Adjusting the transmission power for the set of downlink messages may reduce self-interference at the UE, the base station, or both.

  • Patent number: 11909595
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for managing communications in a distributed system are disclosed. To improve the efficiency of communication, the system may implement the port extension protocol which may allow communication devices to utilize ports of other devices for communication purposes. To do so, the communication devices may instruct the other devices with respect to how the communication devices expect the other devices to process data units transmitted via networks (e.g., network data units). However, not all of the other devices that may process the network data units may include functionality to process and/or implement the instructions from the communication devices. To extend the functionality of such devices, a remote control plane for devices that lack this processing functionality may be provided.
