Abstract
This disclosure provides wireless communication methods, components, devices and systems for link recovery in wireless communication networks. Some aspects more specifically relate to the recovery of lost wireless communication links for which initial link establishment has been aided by communications over anchor links of different frequency bands than those of the lost wireless communication links. According to some aspects, a recovery mechanism can be implemented that enables involved devices to recover such 'extension' links using communications over their associated frequency bands, without needing to revert to communication over their corresponding anchor links. In some examples, such a recovery mechanism can be implemented to enable recovery of a millimeter wave (mmWave) extension link of a non-standalone mmWave basic service set (BSS) without needing to revert to communication over a sub-7 GHz anchor link.
