Abstract
Location-aware spatial reuse may be provided. First, an Overlapping Basic Service Set (OBSS) transmission to be received at a device may be detected by a first Access Point (AP). Then the location of the device may be determined. Next, based on the determined location, it may be determined that the device is out of range of the first AP. Then, in response to determining that the device is out of range of the first AP, the first AP may perform an OBSS Packet Detect (PD) based Spatial Reuse (SR) transmission without reducing a transmit (Tx) power for the transmission.
