Some implementations more specifically relate to BSS discovery and association techniques that support wireless communications on carrier frequencies above 7 GHz. In some aspects, an access point (AP) may communicate using beamforming on a wireless communication link operating at a carrier frequency above 7 GHz (the “directional link”) while offloading the BSS discovery and association procedures needed to support such communications onto a wireless communication link operating at a carrier frequency below 7 GHz (the “anchor link”). In some implementations, the AP may perform a beamforming training operation with a STA over the directional link upon associating with the STA over the anchor link. In such implementations, the AP may communicate with the STA over the directional link using a beam derived from the beamforming training operation.

  • Patent number: 11923888
    Abstract: Embodiments of this application disclose a full-duplex self-interference cancellation method and apparatus. The full-duplex self-interference cancellation method may be applied to the field of radio frequency self-interference cancellation in a full-duplex scenario. The full-duplex self-interference cancellation method is implemented by a full-duplex self-interference cancellation apparatus with self-interference reconstruction modules of two levels, and the full-duplex self-interference cancellation apparatus is implemented by a terminal. This greatly reduces hardware implementation complexity and costs of the second self-interference reconstruction module, and improves a full-duplex self-interference cancellation capability.

  • Patent number: 11916831
    Abstract: A reference signal (RS) transmission system to transmit a channel state information (CSI) RS for extraction of CSI to a relay and a macro terminal is disclosed. The base station transmits information on a sub frame containing the CSI RS to the relay or the macro terminal. The macro terminal and the relay receive the CSI RS using the information on the sub frame. The macro terminal and the relay extract the CSI using the CSI RS and transmit the extracted CSI to the base station.

  • 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.

  • Patent number: 11871410
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that support joint allocation for both an uplink message and a downlink message. In some cases, joint downlink control information (DCI) may indicate a time domain resource allocation (TDRA) for a downlink data channel and an uplink data channel. For example, bits of the joint DCI may be configured to indicate TDRA parameters of a downlink data channel (e.g., starting symbol, length value, slot offset, mapping type, timing advance, number of repetitions) and based on the TDRA parameters of the downlink data channel, TDRA parameters for an uplink data channel may be determined by a user equipment (UE) using the joint DCI.
