Abstract: Example methods relate to avoiding beacon collisions between a repeater and a root AP, optimizing traffic flows based on buffers queued within hardware, and/or optimizing transmissions through a trigger-based mechanism. An example method includes determining loads on buffers within a repeater configured to communicate according to a DBVC protocol. The loads on the buffers correspond to data to be transmitted within upstream and downstream networks. The method includes determining whether to adjust a DBVC duty cycle of the repeater based on the loads. The DBVC duty cycle includes: an on channel duty cycle comprising a ratio of time on an on channel to total time on both the on and off channels; or an off channel duty cycle comprising a ratio of time on the off channel to total time on both the on and off channels.

Abstract: Various examples pertaining to extremely-high-throughput (EHT) error recovery in synchronous multiple-frame transmission in wireless communications are described. A multi-link device (MLD) detects a failure related to either or both of a first frame exchange sequence on a first link or a second frame exchange sequence on a second link. In response to the detecting, the MLD adjusts a timing of either or both of a first subsequent transmission on the first link and a second subsequent transmission on the second link to align the first and second subsequent transmissions.

Abstract: Various examples pertaining to efficient trigger-based (TB) multi-user (MU) uplink (UL) transmissions in wireless local area networks (WLANs) are described. A stations (STA) receives a trigger frame from an access point (AP), with the trigger frame assigning one or more resource units (RUs) corresponding to one or more subchannels of a plurality of subchannels. The STA then performs a transmission using the assigned one or more RUs responsive to receiving the trigger frame. In an event that at least one subchannel of the plurality of subchannels is detected as being busy, the one or more subchannels may include a subset (e.g., some but not all) of the plurality of subchannels.

Abstract: In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a station (STA). In certain configurations, the STA transmits a request-to-send (RTS) frame in an enhanced long range (ELR) format for obtaining a transmission opportunity (TXOP). The STA receives a first clear-to-send (CTS) frame in the ELR format or a non-ELR format responding to the RTS frame. In response to receiving the first CTS frame, the STA transmits data in the ELR format in the TXOP. In certain configurations, the STA further receives an acknowledgement in the same format as the first CTS frame for responding to the data being transmitted. In certain configurations, prior to transmitting the RTS frame, the STA transmits a CTS-to-Self frame in the non-ELR format.

In the control frame, either a plurality of first reserved bits in a SERVICE field or a plurality of bits in a User Info field are set to indicate a multiple resource unit (MRU) pattern regarding preamble puncturing.

Abstract: An array substrate and a total reflection liquid crystal display panel are provided. By disposing an uneven surface which is at least partially uneven on a side of a planarization layer away from a substrate in the total reflection liquid crystal display panel, a reflection electrode can be disposed along the uneven surface of the planarization layer in an uneven shape, thereby changing an reflective direction of a light in the panel. Therefore, the light that cannot be reflected at a critical angle of total reflection originally is allowed to be reflected out of the panel, thereby increasing reflectivity of the total reflection liquid crystal display panel.

The apparatus controls a transmit power in performing transmission on at least the non-primary subband.

Abstract: JSON Duality Views are object views that return JDV objects. JDV objects are virtual because they are not stored in a database as JSON objects. Rather, JDV objects are stored in shredded form across tables and table attributes (e.g. columns) and returned by a DBMS in response to database commands that request a JDV object from a JSON Duality View. Through JSON Duality Views, changes to the state of a JDV object may be specified at the level of a JDV object. JDV objects are updated in a database using optimistic lock.
