Abstract
This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to enhanced protecting of block acknowledgement requests. A device may identify a protected frame received from a second device; determine, using a lower layer of a medium access control layer including the lower layer and an upper layer, that the protected frame is to be used to perform a block acknowledgement request; process, using the lower layer, the protected frame; perform, using the lower layer, a replay detection of the protected frame; update, using the lower layer, based on the protected frame, a lowest sequence number WinStartR indicative of a lowest sequence number position in a bitmap; and update, using the upper layer, a receive reordering buffer control record WinStart B.
