Abstract: In communication applications, aggregate source image data at a transmitter exceeds the data that is needed to display a rendering of a viewport at a receiver. Improved streaming techniques that include estimating a location of a viewport at a future time. According to such techniques, the viewport may represent a portion of an image from a multi-directional video to be displayed at the future time, and tile(s) of the image may be identified in which the viewport is estimated to be located. In these techniques, the image data of tile(s) in which the viewport is estimated to be located may be requested at a first service tier, and the other tile in which the viewport is not estimated to be located may be requested at a second service tier, lower than the first service tier.

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices, systems, and computer programs encoded on storage media, for clear channel assessment (CCA) for a wide bandwidth channel. For example, a wide bandwidth channel may have a bandwidth that is greater than 160 MHz bandwidth. An example wide bandwidth channel has a 320 MHz bandwidth. The CCA techniques include detection thresholds that may be used for wide bandwidth channels. In some implementations, a CCA process may be extended to include assessments of extended portions of a wide bandwidth channel (such as a tertiary 80 MHz bandwidth channel and a quaternary 80 MHz bandwidth channel). In some implementations, a CCA process may be extended to use an assessment of a secondary channel of the wide bandwidth channel that has a 160 MHz bandwidth.
