Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communications and, more particularly, to Wi-Fi systems including frame extensions in transmission frames. Lengths of frame extensions may be determined based on transmission bandwidths and transmission data rates of the frames. Lengths of frame extensions may also be determined based on an amount of useful data in a final symbol of the frame. An access point (AP) may determine frame extension lengths for use in transmitting to stations (STAs) based on reception capabilities of the STAs. An AP may determine frame extension lengths for STAs to use in transmitting frames.

Abstract: A wireless device may selectively add padding to an end of a data transmission in order to provide adequate time for a receiving device to process the transmitted data and transmit feedback related to the transmitted data. A wireless device may identify a total amount of data capable of being transmitted in a transmission, and determine a number of data bits to be transmitted in the transmission. An amount of padding may be selected based on a proportion of the total amount of data capable of being transmitted and the number of data bits. In some examples, a preamble for a feedback transmission may be transmitted concurrently with processing of the received transmission.
