    Abstract: Various techniques and schemes pertaining to extremely-high throughput (EHT) multi-link maximum channel switching in wireless communications are described. A station (STA) multi-link device (MLD) receives an indication from a reporting access point (AP) affiliated with an AP MLD on one link of multiple links.

  • Patent number: 11917551
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are drawn to methods and electronic devices capable of performing coordinate spatial reuse for wirelessly transmitting data on a channel in coordination with another wireless AP operating an overlapping BSS using the same wireless channel. The device can perform RSSI measurements and generate Per-RU RSSI reports including the RSSI measurements information for transmission to another wireless AP. The RSSI measurement can be performed by the device based on power levels detected when receiving TB PPDUs transmitted by wireless STAs responsive to trigger frames, for example. Based on the Per-RU RSSI report, a wireless AP can be configured to transmit data to an associated wireless STA without causing significant interference when another AP of the overlapping BSS is also transmitting, and can schedule frames for transmission from associated wireless STAs accordingly.

  • Patent number: 11882596
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are drawn to electronic systems that perform EHT operations for a wireless network supporting a 160+160 MHz/320 MHz operating mode. RTS/CTS frame exchange sequences and TXOP truncation can be performed using punctured preambles according to subchannels indicated in a bitmap subfield (e.g., an Allowed Bitmap Subfield). Preamble puncturing is supported for EHT PPDUs transmitted to multiple STAs using MU-RTS/MU-CTS frames transmitted in non-HT duplicate PPDUs. Preamble puncturing is also supported for an EHT PPDU transmitted to a single STA. The RTS and CTS frames can be sent in a non-HT duplicate PPDU with preamble puncturing, for example.

  • Patent number: 11877321
    Abstract: A multi-link device (MLD) monitors each of first and second links in a multi-link operation in wireless communications, with the first link being a primary link and the second link being a secondary link. The MLD obtains a transmission opportunity (TXOP) on one of the first link and the second link as a result of performing a contention-based channel access on the first link and the second link. The MLD checks channel status of the other of the first link and the second link. The MLD then transmits one or more frames on the first link but not on the second link, on the second link but not on the first link, or on both the first link and the second link synchronously, responsive to the channel status of the other link given the TXOP being obtained on the one of the first link and the second link.
