Abstract

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus for signaling the bandwidth to be used for wireless communications using an RTS/CTS (Request to Send/Clear to Send) frame exchange, providing for bandwidths of at least 20 MHz, 40 MHz, 80 MHz, 160 MHz, or higher. This exchange of bandwidth information may be performed implicitly-by determining the channels in which the RTS/CTS frames are actually sent-or explicitly. In addition to this bandwidth information exchange, aspects of the present disclosure may also allow for Network Allocation Vector (NAV) protection in multiple channels. In this manner, the wireless medium may be reserved, and the transmission may be protected from hidden nodes.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 385,462 filed September 22, 2010 (Atty.Dkt.No. 102919P1), U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 387,744 filed September 29, 2010 (Atty .Dkt.No. 102919P2), and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 392,456 (Atty.Dkt.No. 102919P3), filed October 12, 2010 (Atty.Dkt.No. 102919P3), which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety . technical field [0003] In general, certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and in particular, to exchanging bandwidth information between a transmitting entity and a receiving entity to determine the bandwidth to be used between the two entities to transmit data. Background technique [0004] In order to address the increasing bandwidth requirements required by wireless communication systems, different schemes are being developed to allow multiple user te...
