Abstract: A first communication apparatus dynamically controls data flow in aggregated medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (AMPDU) aggregation by negotiating an initial block acknowledgement (Block-ACK) window size for the AMPDU aggregation with the second communication apparatus. The first communication apparatus adjusts the AMPDU aggregation during subsequent communication with the second communication apparatus by creating a Block-ACK frame with a reserved field, which has a value indicating a change to the AMPDU aggregation, and then transmitting the Block-ACK frame to the second communication apparatus.

Abstract: An apparatus (e.g., testing instrument) measures one or more parameters related to transmit power in a first wireless signal transmitted by a wireless device which is under test by the apparatus. The apparatus then transmits to the wireless device a second wireless signal containing data of a result of measurement of the one or more parameters. The first wireless signal may be an IEEE 802.11 data frame, and the second wireless signal may be an IEEE 802.11 generic frame.

Abstract: Schemes, methods and examples for optimization of broadcast and multicast frame delivery when at least one client device in a basic service set (BSS) is in a power-save mode are described. A communication apparatus associated with a BSS receives a broadcast or multicast frame after a first Delivery Traffic Indication Map (DTIM). The communication apparatus transmits the broadcast or multicast frame to at least a first client device in the BSS, without buffering the broadcast or multicast frame for transmission following a second DTIM which is subsequent the first DTIM, while at least a second client device in the BSS is in a power-save mode.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus pertaining to Wi-Fi station (STA) power optimization using coexistent low-power wireless communications capabilities may involve a processor of a first apparatus causing the first apparatus to enter a second mode from a first mode with respect to communications with a second apparatus using a first wireless communication technology via a first communication device of the first apparatus. The processor may receive a notification from the second apparatus using a second wireless communication technology different from the first wireless communication technology via a second communication device of the first apparatus. The processor may cause the first apparatus to enter the first mode or a third mode from the second mode with respect to communications with the second apparatus using the first wireless communication technology via the first communication device of the first apparatus responsive to receiving the notification.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus pertaining to power-save operations for the apparatus may involve a processor of the apparatus transmitting, via a transmitter of the apparatus, a power-save request to one or more communication devices associated with the apparatus. The processor may receive, via a receiver of the apparatus, an acknowledgment from each of the one or more communication devices. The processor may cause the apparatus to enter a power-save mode in response to receiving the acknowledgment from each of the one or more communication devices.

Abstract: A wireless communication device including first and second circuitry is provided. The first circuitry is configured to wirelessly communicate with an access point when the wireless communication device operates in a first mode on a first channel. The second circuitry is configured to send a CLEAR TO SEND (CTS)-TO-SELF (CTS-2-SELF) packet to the access point in response to the wireless communication device going to switch from operating in the first mode on the first channel to operate in a second mode on a second channel for a period of time.

Abstract: A wireless communication system including a first circuit and a second circuit is provided. The first circuit is configured to support a first wireless communication using a first wireless technology. The second circuit is configured to support a second wireless communication using a second wireless technology, determine a period of time for an activity schedule of the first wireless communication, send out a first control packet for channel reservation for the period of time plus a buffering time in response to detecting the activity schedule of the first wireless communication, and send out a second control packet within the buffering time for additional channel reservation in response to the activity schedule of the first wireless communication being extended.
