Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for signaling basic service set (BSS) identifiers (BSSIDs). A group of BSSs may form a Multiple BSSID set in which one BSS sent management frames on behalf of other BSSs (referred to as non-transmitting BSSIDs). For example, a management frame (such as a Beacon Frame or Probe Response Frame) may include a list of BSSIDs for some or all of the non-transmitting BSSIDs in the Multiple BSSID set. An indicator in the management frame may indicate whether the management frame includes a partial list or complete list of non-transmitting BSSIDs in the Multiple BSSID set. The management frame may include a count or bitmap to indicate the quantity of BSSIDs in the Multiple BSSID set. A station (STA) may indicate which BSSIDs it has discovered and request the remaining BSSIDs in the Multiple BSSID set.

Abstract: A wireless device receives a packet from a sender node according to a routing protocol and determines a position information of the sender node. The wireless device calculates a distance to the sender node from the wireless device and discards the packet if the distance is outside of a range. Otherwise, the packet is processed according to the routing protocol. As a result, the approach may be suited to testing type environments where the wireless devices are proximately placed and yet one may wish to simulate real-world distances between the wireless devices.
