  • Publication number: 20260269981
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, components, devices and systems for ambient power downlink bandwidth control. Some aspects more specifically relate to waveform generation and sequence selection for transmission of wireless signaling. In some examples, an access point (AP) may generate a spreading waveform by concatenating a sequence of symbols having a first duration and modulating an on-off keying (OOK) waveform having a different symbol duration with the spreading waveform. The AP may apply randomization to each OFDM and may select a sequence of tones in the frequency domain to reduce inconsistent power transmissions across slices of each OFDM symbol. The AP may select which tones to populate and which values to apply to the selected tones such that an amount of variation in transmit power across slices of each OFDM symbol of the waveform is decreased.

  • Patent number: 12732216
    Abstract: This disclosure provides wireless communication methods, components, devices and systems for applying spectral masks and spectral flatness parameters in conjunction with transmission of millimeter wave (mmWave) signals in wireless communication networks. In some examples, in conjunction with transmission of an mmWave signal, a wireless communication device can apply a derivative spectral mask featuring transitional offset ranges that correspond to transitional frequency offset ranges of a spectral mask for a nominal carrier signal, scaled according to a ratio between a bandwidth of the mmWave signal and a bandwidth of the nominal carrier signal. In some examples, the derivative spectral mask can feature an in-band frequency offset range that is wider than a scaled width of an in-band frequency offset range of the spectral mask for the nominal carrier signal.

  • Publication number: 20260247352
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for generating enhanced trigger frames. Some implementations more specifically relate to trigger frame designs that support gains in data throughput achievable in accordance with the IEEE 802.11be amendment, and future generations, of the IEEE 802.11 standard. In some implementations, an enhanced trigger frame may be used to solicit a non-legacy trigger-based (TB) physical layer protocol convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) from one or more wireless stations (STAs). In some implementations, the enhanced trigger frame may be configurable to support multiple versions of the IEEE 802.11 standard. For example, an enhanced trigger frame may be configured in accordance with a legacy trigger frame format or a non-legacy trigger frame format. Thus, when configured in accordance with the legacy trigger frame format, the enhanced trigger frame can also be used to a legacy TB PPDU from one or more STAs.

  • Publication number: 20260230132
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, components, devices and systems for pre-sounding frame exchange for coordinated beamforming (CoBF) sounding procedures. Some examples more specifically relate to coordination between a first wireless access point (AP) and a second wireless AP prior to performance of a CoBF sounding procedure. For example, the first wireless AP may transmit, to the second wireless AP, a first frame that includes an invitation for the second wireless AP to perform a CoBF sounding procedure with the first wireless AP. In accordance with receiving the first frame, the second wireless AP may transmit a second frame that indicates whether the second wireless AP accepts the invitation to perform the CoBF sounding procedure. If the second wireless AP accepts the invitation, the first wireless AP and the second wireless AP may perform the CoBF sounding procedure.

  • Publication number: 20260222138
    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatuses for wireless communication. An example apparatus selects a first resource unit (RU) of a plurality of RUs for transmitting a physical (PHY) layer convergence protocol (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) over a wireless medium.

The plurality of RUs may collectively span a second frequency bandwidth greater than the first frequency bandwidth. The apparatus maps the set of contiguous tones of the first RU to a set of non-contiguous tones distributed across the second frequency bandwidth using a tone mapping vector and a tone mapping offset associated with the first RU. The apparatus transmits the PPDU over the set of non-contiguous tones distributed across the second frequency bandwidth.

  • Patent number: 12696115
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices and systems for link adaptation in wireless communications. Some implementations more specifically relate to transmitter-based modulation and coding scheme (MCS) selection. A transmitting device transmits a test packet, over a wireless channel, to a receiving device. The receiving device generates one or more signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) estimates for the wireless channel based on the received sounding packet. In some aspects, each SINR estimate may be associated with a particular modulation order. 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.
