Abstract
A first communication device generates a null data packet announcement (NDPA) frame for use in a ranging measurement exchange session with a second communication device. The NDPA frame includes a station information field corresponding to the second communication device, the station information field having i) an 11-bit association identifier (AID) subfield that includes an identifier of the second communication device, ii) a disambiguation subfield set to a value that prevents a third communication device operating according to a second communication protocol from improperly processing the NDPA frame, and iii) sixteen bits between the AID subfield and the disambiguation subfield. The first communication device transmits the NDPA frame to the second communication device as part of the ranging measurement exchange session. After transmitting the NDPA frame, the first communication device transmits a null data packet (NDP) to the second communication device as part of the ranging measurement exchange session.
