Publication number: 20220407844Abstract: The disclosure provides some embodiments for securing long training field (LTF) sequence. A responding station (RSTA) configures a location management report (LMR) frame. The LMR frame is configured to include an LMR in respect of a previous measurement, and data to be used to generate a null data packet (NDP) for a current measurement that is to be performed following the previous measurement. The RSTA further encrypts the LMR frame using protected management frames (PMF) scheme, and transmits the encrypted LMR frame to an initiating station (ISTA) for generating an LTF sequence for the current measurement. In response to receiving an NDP announcement (NDPA) and an NDP for the current measurement from the ISTA, the RSTA generates an NDP for the current measurement based on the NDPA and the data using CCMP, and transmits the NDP to the ISTA.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 16, 2022Publication date: December 22, 2022Inventors: Qinghua Li, Jonathan Segev, Benny Abramovsky, Danny Alexander, Xiaogang Chen, Chittabrata Ghosh, Feng Jiang, Ido Ouzieli, Robert Stacey

Publication number: 20220330270Abstract: To communicate with a plurality of non-AP stations (STAs) within synchronized transmission opportunities (S-TXOPs), an access point station (AP) performs an initial management frame exchange with the STAs. During the initial management frame exchange, one or more sets of semi-static allocation parameters are signalling to the STAs. Each set of semi-static allocation parameters is associated with an allocation index (IDx). The AP may communicate data with the STAs during S-TXOPs that follow the initial management frame exchange. Each of the S-TXOPs may include an S-TXOP trigger. The S-TXOP trigger may be encoded to include one of the allocation indices to indicate a known allocation for use during the associated S-TXOP when a set of the predetermined semi-static allocation parameters are to be used. The S-TXOP trigger may be encoded to include full allocation information to indicate a new allocation for use during the associated S-TXOP when the predetermined semi-static allocation parameters are not used.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2022Publication date: October 13, 2022Inventors: Dibakar Das, Dave A.

Publication number: 20210235319Abstract: An extremely high-throughput (EHT) station (STA) is configured for transmission of a control response frame for rate selection. In response to a frame carried in an EHT PPDU soliciting a control response frame, the EHT STA may calculate a duration of a non-HT PPDU containing the control response frame sent at a primary rate. The EHT STA may also encode a high-efficient (HE) single-user (SU) PPDU (HE SU PPDU) for transmission to carry the solicited control response frame when a transmit time of the encoded HE SU PPDU is less than the calculated duration of the non-HT PPDU, or encode an EHT PPDU for transmission to carry the solicited control response frame when a transmit time of the encoded EHT PPDU is less than the calculated duration of the non-HT PPDU. A reduction in overhead may be achieved by using an HE SU PPDU or an EHT PPDU instead of a non-HT PPDU to carry a solicited control response frame.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 16, 2021Publication date: July 29, 2021Inventors: Po-Kai Huang, Daniel F.

Publication number: 20210185607Abstract: Multi-link device (MLD) parameters and security capability indications are described. Each link between an AP MLD and a non-AP MLD is between an AP of the AP MLD and a corresponding STA of the non-AP MLD. Each STA provides a listen and WNM sleep interval. The listen intervals are the same and are converted by the AP MILD into units of the maximum beacon frame interval among the APs to determine whether a STA is awake to receive a particular beacon. Each beacon frame interval and DTIM interval is independent of each other beacon frame internal and DTIM interval. The WNM sleep intervals are in units of the DTIM interval for independent WNM sleep intervals or a smallest DTIM interval among the APs when each WNM sleep interval is the same. A RSNXE in each beacon frame provides an identification of the AP and security capability of the AP.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 23, 2020Publication date: June 17, 2021Inventors: Laurent Cariou, Po-Kai Huang, Ido Ouzieli, Danny Alexander
