A multi-access point coordination signal transmission method includes receiving a coordination control frame transmitted from a first access point (AP) by a second AP, decoding and parsing the coordination control frame by the second AP during a short interframe space, transmitting a leading signal from a second AP to a second station when a first packet protocol data unit (PPDU) is transmitted from the first AP to a first station, entering an idle state by the second station after the leading signal is completely received, and receiving a second PPDU transmitted from the second AP by the second station after leaving the idle state

A first station (STA) receives, from a second STA, a block acknowledgement request (BAR) frame: soliciting a block acknowledgement (BA) frame from the first STA, initiating a transmit opportunity (TXOP), and indicating whether the first STA is required to perform a carrier sense (CS) operation during a short inter frame space (SIFS) duration after receiving the BAR frame. Based on the BAR frame indicating that the first STA is required to perform the CS operation, the first STA performs the CS operation during the SIFS duration after receiving the BAR frame. Based on a result of the CS operation indicating idle, the first STA transmits, to the second STA and in response to the BAR frame, the BA frame.

The present disclosure provides methods, components, devices, and systems for acknowledgement (ACK) processing associated with media access control (MAC) header verification, payload verification, or both. Some aspects are more particularly directed to a first wireless device announcing processing capabilities associated with performing MAC protocol data unit (MPDU) authentication, including MAC header authentication, payload authentication, or both. In some implementations, the processing capability may include a processing latency for performing authentication, a threshold number of MPDUs supporting authentication within a short inter-frame spacing (SIFS) time interval, or both. The first wireless device may send an indication of processing capability to the second wireless device. In some implementations, the second wireless device may transmit the MPDU to the first wireless device according to the processing capability. Additionally or alternatively, the first wireless device may transmit an ACK frame for the MPDU according to the processing capability.

This disclosure provides methods, components, devices and systems for overlapping physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) end point offset. Some aspects more specifically relate to staggering the end times of overlapping PPDUs transmitted by multiple access points (APs) such that the corresponding block acknowledgments (BAs) are staggered by durations exceeding BA locking periods for the APs. In some examples, a BA may be transmitted by a wireless station (STA) to an AP a short interframe space (SIFS) after the end time of a PPDU transmitted by the AP. When multiple APs transmit concurrent PPDUs, multiple STAs may accordingly transmit corresponding BAs. By implementing techniques to stagger the BAs, an AP that locks onto a BA and determines that the BA is intended for another AP can receive a next staggered BA intended for the AP.

The invention relates to a wireless transceiver, a transmission rate control method thereof and a wireless communication system. The wireless transceiver comprises a communication module and a processing unit. The communication module is used for transmitting and receiving radio frequency signals. The processing unit is coupled to the communication module and configured to perform the following operations: upon detecting an overlapping basic service set packet, determine whether an active spatial reuse transmission is required; when it is judged that active spatial reuse transmission needs to be carried out, entering a rollback stage; when the target is detected to be the data packet of the wireless transceiver before the end of the fallback stage, pausing the fallback stage and receiving the data packet; determining the smaller one of the minimum transmission power of the response frame for responding to the data packet and the active transmission power of the corresponding wireless transceiver as the passive transmission power of the response frame; and transmitting the response frame at the passive transmission power within the short frame interval after receiving the data packet.
