Abstract: To provide a communication apparatus which controls channel access operation under a multi user environment, and a communication method. Channel access operation of each STA after an MU mode is finished is controlled through a trigger frame from an AP to prevent collision immediately after the MU mode is finished. Further, the AP sets a smaller CW upon transmission of the trigger frame than a CW of an STA to preferentially transmit the trigger frame and give priority to communication in the MU mode over communication in an SU mode. Further, by the CW of each STA upon switching of the mode being not reset, a transmission waiting period after the MU mode is finished is shortened.

Abstract: A node may forward, from a base station to a first UE, or from the first UE to the base station, one or more wireless signals. The node may identify an indication to stop signal forwarding to the first UE. The indication may be based on a level of an interference to a second UE associated with the signal forwarding to the first UE being greater than a first threshold. The level of the interference to the second UE may be based on a path gain difference or a signal strength at the first UE associated with the signal forwarding to the first UE. The signal strength at the first UE associated with the signal forwarding to the first UE may correspond to an RSRP at the first UE. The node may stop the signal forwarding to the first UE based on the indication.

In some other aspects, each SINR estimate may be generated based on a transmitter configuration or a receiver type to be used for subsequent communications between the transmitting device and the receiving device. The receiving device transmits feedback, including the SINR estimates, to the transmitting device.
