Abstract: A communication device performs a first backoff operation with a first backoff counter to determine when to transmit a first packet in a first frequency, and performs a second backoff operation with a second backoff counter to determine when to transmit a second packet in a second frequency segment. In connection with the first backoff counter expiring, the communication device transmits the first packet in the first frequency segment. In connection with the second backoff counter expiring, the communication device transmits the second packet in the second frequency segment simultaneously with transmitting the first packet in the first frequency segment. In response to determining that transmission of the first packet in the first frequency segment failed, the communication device increases a first contention window for a retransmission of the first packet, and does not adjust the second contention window for a next transmission in the second frequency segment.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for error information storage for boot-up procedures are described. A memory system may detect an error associated with performing the boot-up procedure of the memory system and may store error information associated with the detected error in a persistent register at the memory system.

After storing the error information, the memory system may reset and, after resetting, may transfer the error information from the persistent register to a non-volatile memory device at the memory system. In cases that the memory system stores error information in the cache prior to the reset, the memory system may additionally transfer the error information from the cache to the non-volatile memory device.

Abstract: Memory power consumption is reduced without increasing latency of memory read access. When inactive, power consumption is reduced in a PHY in a memory controller by disabling receiver bias circuitry and a clock network in the PHY. The memory controller sends two command-based signals to the PHY to enable the PHY to enable the receiver bias circuitry and the clock network in the PHY to transition the memory from a low power state to an active power state prior to or at the time of receiving command from the memory controller. A first command-based signal is an early command indication signal that is sent before any command. The second command-based signal is a read indication signal that is sent synchronous with every read command. Upon receiving these signals, the PHY enables the clock network and receiver bias circuitry.
