Abstract: Optimal determination of a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) sounding method and system may be provided. An Access Point (AP) selects a subchannel for the partial sounding. The AP then sounds the selected subchannel. A client station responds with Channel State Information (CSI). The AP can receive the CSI, from the client station, in response to the sounding. Based on the CSI from the selected subchannel, the AP extrapolates the CSI to determine predicted CSI for a wider bandwidth channel.

Abstract: Optimal determination of wireless antenna configurations may be provided. A computing device may direct an antenna array of an Access Point (AP) to generate a wide beamwidth, to locate a cluster of two or more stations. Upon locating the cluster, the AP can narrow the beamwidth, and, with the narrower beamwidth, receive a key performance indicator (KPI) from at least one of the two or more stations in the cluster. The computing device may then generate a statistical model, based on the KPI and an antenna vector of the antenna array. Based on the statistical model, the computing device can determine a second antenna vector to optimize the KPI for one or more of the client stations. The computing device can then modify the antenna state of the AP to generate the determined antenna vector.

A computing device may establish Multi-Access Point (AP) coordination between at least a first AP and a second AP. The first AP can determine an uplink operation is scheduled. When an uplink is scheduled, the first AP can switch its antenna to a narrow beamwidth. The first AP can then receive uplink transmissions from at least a client in the coverage area of the narrow beamwidth. After the uplink transmission, the first AP can then switch the antenna to a larger beamwidth for a next Multi-AP coordination operation.

After transmission of the sounding trigger to the MLD on the first WCL, AP may transmit a Channel State Information (CSI) inquiry to the MLD on the second WCL. AP may receive a channel state quantification from the MLD on the second WCL in response to the CSI inquiry.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a management entity monitors for a change in a convergence rate of spatio-temporal compressive sensing measurements from a plurality of sensors in a sensor network operating according to a measurement matrix up to a halting criterion, and if the change is below a given threshold, determines whether the change is due to impulse noise or due to continued sensed measurements.
