Abstract: One embodiment is directed to a method comprising selecting a group of packets for at least one access category, determining a set of contention parameters based on the at least one access category, transmitting the selected group of packets by using the determined set of contention parameters, obtaining information about collision of the transmitted group of packets, and determining an updated set of contention parameters based on the obtained collision information and a predefined condition.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for coordinating wireless local area networking communication. An access point capable of OFDMA communication transmits to one or more stations capable of synchronous communication. Each communication frame transmitted on the uplink or downlink includes information, such as OFDM header information, Morming legacy stations not to transmit during the OFDMA transmission. The header information may be a legacy header prepended by the access point for downlink transmission, or a portion of a legacy header prepended by each of a plurality of stations for uplink transmission, with the portions being concatenated into a complete header during a simultaneous transmission. Alternatively, the header information may be a header transmitted by a designated group leader during a simultaneous transmission.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for sensing and/or transmission coverage adaptation using interference information. In one aspect there is provided a method. The method may include determining, at a node, a degree of interference at the node; receiving, at the node, at least one message from at least one neighboring node, the at least one message including another degree of interference observed at the at least one neighboring node; and adjusting, by the node based on the degree of interference at the node and the at least another degree of interference, at least one of a receiver sensitivity of the node, a clear channel assessment detection range of the node, or a transmit power of the node. Related apparatus, systems, methods, and articles are also described.

Abstract: A method and apparatus may be configured to determine a plurality of rings. The plurality of rings surround a radar, and the plurality of rings encompass a plurality of networks surrounding the radar. The method also includes determining transmission powers corresponding to the plurality of rings. Each ring is associated with a determined transmission power. The method also includes instructing each network of the plurality of networks to perform transmissions in accordance with the determined transmission powers. Each network is instructed to use the determined transmission power that corresponds to the ring which encompasses that network.

Abstract: A method and apparatus can be configured to receive an input. The input comprises a plurality of values. The receiver receives the input in the presence of interference caused by another system. The method may also include determining the values that have been affected by the interference. The method may also include mitigating the effects of the interference upon the received input.
