Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed for a wireless device to transmit or receive a channel busy time (CBT) to or from other devices in a wireless network. For transmitting, the wireless device may determine a CBT during which a wireless channel is to be occupied, generate a universal reservation signal (URS) indicating the CBT, and transmit on the wireless channel the URS to at least one other wireless device. For receiving, the wireless device may receive on a wireless channel a URS from a second wireless device, the URS configured to indicate the CBT. The wireless device may also refrain from attempting to transmit on the wireless channel during the CBT.
