Title:
COORDINATED BEAMFORMING (COBF) PROTOCOL FOR UNMANAGED NETWORKS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/023079
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure are directed to apparatus and techniques for performing coordinated beamforming (CoBF) transmissions. The apparatus generally includes a processing system configured to generate at least one first frame including an invitation to share resources with one or more first wireless nodes, wherein the apparatus is part of a first basic service set and the one or more first wireless nodes are part of one or more second basic service sets, a first interface configured to output the at least one first frame for transmission to the one or more first wireless nodes, and a second interface configured to obtain, from the one or more first wireless nodes, an identification of one or more second wireless nodes if the invitation is accepted, wherein the second interface is configured to obtain one or more transmissions from at least one of the one or more second wireless nodes.
