Methods and arrangements for reverse synchronization on a wireless medium

Methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for quality-of-service policies in wireless local area networks. Apparatuses of a station (STA) are disclosed, where the apparatuses comprise processing circuitry configured to encode for transmission to an access point (AP) a quality of service (QoS) query frame and decode a QoS request frame from the AP, the QoS request frame indicating a plurality of QoS policies offered by the AP. The processing circuitry may be further configured to encode for transmission to the AP a QoS response frame, the QoS response frame indicating a status of a QoS policy of the plurality of QoS policies. Apparatuses of the AP are disclosed to encode QoS request frames and decode QoS response frames. The AP and STAs implement the negotiated QoS policies by using a QoS WLAN priority based on frames including packets being sent and received from specific addresses.

Quality of service policies in wireless LANS

For example, a wireless communication station (STA) may be configured to determine whether a stream of frames is suitable for out-of-order delivery from a first Medium Access Control layer (MAC-layer) process to a second MAC-layer process, the second MAC-layer process is above the first MAC-layer process; and, based on a determination that the stream of frames is suitable for out-of-order delivery, to deliver to the second MAC-layer process one or more frames of the stream of frames according to an out-of-order delivery scheme.

Apparatus, system, and method of out-of-order delivery of wireless communication frames

An extremely high-throughput (EHT) station (STA) encodes a management frame to include a quality-of-service (QoS) capability element that includes a QoS information field configured to signal QoS redundancy capability. The EHT STA may set a QoS redundancy bit in the QoS information field of the QoS capabilities element to indicate (i.e., signal) that the EHT STA supports redundancy for QoS data frames. The EHT STA may include an Extended Capabilities element in the management frame and set a new redundancy indicator bit in the Extended Capabilities element to indicate (i.e., signal) that the EHT STA supports redundancy for a select subset of IEEE802.11 management frames.

Signalling support for redundancy capabilities for EHT

The application provides a method, method, comprising: a station (STA) sending a first quality of service (QoS) request message to an access point (AP) indicating a requested QoS for a traffic stream from the AP to the STA; the AP receiving the first QoS request message from the STA and sending a first traffic stream applied with the requested QoS to the STA when the requested QoS matches with an existing QoS policy for the STA in the AP or there is no existing QoS policy for the STA in the AP, and the STA receiving the first traffic stream applied with the requested QoS from AP.

Method and apparatus used in WLAN networks

Logic to generate an extremely high throughput (EHT) physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) comprising a medium access control (MAC) management frame. the MAC management frame comprising a QoS management field. the QoS management field comprising at least one bit value to indicate quality of service (QoS) management capability associated with links associated with more than one frequency bands. Logic to cause the transmission of the EHT PPDU. And logic to receive and decode the EHT PPDU.

Methods and arrangements for application service discovery

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to uplink location measurement report (LMR) feedback. A device may perform availability window negotiation during a negotiation phase of a location determination associated with a first initiating device of one or more initiating devices. The device may determine a status of a first LMR associated with the first initiating device. The device may cause to send a polling request to one more initiating devices during a first availability window. The device may identify a polling response from at least one of the one or more initiating devices. The device may perform one or more sounding measurements with the at least one of the one or more initiating devices during a measurement phase. The device may cause to send a trigger frame to the at least one of the one or more initiating devices.

Availability indication for uplink location measurement report feedback

A Quality-of-Service (QoS) Management AP is configured to support QoS Management features and to perform a QoS Management Protocol. The AP decodes an Enhanced Add Traffic Stream (E-ADDTS) Request QoS Action Frame (E-ADDTS Req) received from a station (STA) to initiate QoS setup for a traffic stream. The STA may be a QoS Management STA configured to support the QoS Management features and perform the QoS Management protocol. The AP may encode, for transmission to the STA in response to the E-ADDTS Req, an E-ADDTS Response QoS Action Frame (E-ADDTS Resp) which includes a status code to indicate whether the QoS setup has been accepted. When the QoS setup is accepted, the E-ADDTS Resp includes a QoS setup ID within a QoS setup ID field in the E-ADDTS Resp that uniquely identifies the QoS setup for the traffic stream.

Extensible enhanced QoS framework for signaling requirements

A station (STA) configured for Quality-of-Service (QoS) management performs a Simple Reflective QoS (SRQ) protocol with an access point (AP) (i.e., another QoS STA) for QoS management of a QoS flow. As part of the SRQ protocol to exchange QoS profiles, the STA may encode a request frame to include a first SRQ capabilities information element (IE) for transmission to the AP. The inclusion of the first SRQ capabilities IE indicating that the STA supports the SRQ protocol. The STA may also decode a response frame received from the AP. The response frame includes a second SRQ capabilities IE indicating that the AP supports the SRQ protocol. The STA may also determine a QoS profile for the QoS flow based on SRQ capabilities of the STA and the AP. The STA may also create a SRQ tuple based the QoS profile for initiating the QoS flow.
