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.

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, components, devices, and systems that support sounding techniques for ultra-high reliability (UHR) communications. In some implementations, a first communication device may receive a null data packet announcement (NDPA) frame associated with a UHR NDPA variant type.

The first communication device may receive a null data packet (NDP) in accordance with the sounding information, and may perform UHR communications based on measurements of the NDP. In some other implementations, the first communication device may receive a trigger frame that indicates the NDPA, a sounding mode for transmission of the NDP, and parameters for transmission of a compressed beamforming frame (CBF) associated with the NDP. The first communication device may transmit or receive the NDP in accordance with the sounding mode, and may receive or transmit the CBF using the parameters.

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 apparatus transmits the PPDU over the set of non-contiguous tones distributed across the second frequency bandwidth.
