Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus use a processor of a first device to wirelessly communicate with a second device using a first antenna. The processor selects the first antenna from a plurality of antennas based on comparing first antenna data associated with the first antenna with second antenna data associated with a second antenna.

Abstract: In an example embodiment, a device comprises one or more processors and a baseband controller. The one or more processors are configured to: determine, from a payload of at least one received packet, a channel identification (ID) of a notice window in a sequence of transmission windows; transmit, in the notice window, a notice packet that identifies a target window, the target window being later in the sequence of transmission windows than the notice window; generate a target packet that includes inverse whitened data; and transmit the target packet in the target window. The baseband controller is configured to execute signal whitening on the target packet, where the signal whitening of the inverse whitened data in the target packet results in a substantially sinusoidal signal when the target packet is transmitted by the device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices enable the implementation of antenna diversity techniques. Devices include a first wireless communications device that includes a plurality of antennas, and a transceiver coupled to the plurality of antennas and configured to send and receive data in accordance with a wireless transmission protocol, while the peer wireless communication device may have a single antenna or multiple antennas. Devices also include a processor configured to, in a first mode, calculate an angle of arrival (AoA) with the plurality of antennas or an angle of departure (AoD) associated with single antenna, and, in a second mode, send data to and receive data from a second wireless communications device via at least a first antenna of the plurality of antennas, where the first antenna is selected by the processor based on one of a first plurality of signal measurements between the first and second wireless communications devices.

Abstract: A method can include, by operation of a first device, generating sequence information for a plurality of sequential transmission windows, the sequence information including at least a channel identification (ID) corresponding to a base frequency for each window; generating payload data for a packet and wirelessly transmitting the packet in one of the windows, the payload data including sequence information for a window later in the sequence than the window in which the packet is transmitted. By operation of an application executed on a second device, a target packet can be composed that includes inverse whitened data; wherein the whitening of the inverse whitened data by the second device results in a substantially sinusoidal signal when the target packet is transmitted. The first device can determine a direction of the second device by processing the substantially sinusoidal signal. Devices for executing such a method are also disclosed.
