Abstract

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatus, related to a short resource request. A device may identify one or more high efficiency long training (HE-LTF) fields received from at least one of one or more first devices. The device may determine one or more bits associated with the one or more HE-LTF fields. The device may determine an uplink orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) request based at least in part on the one or more bits.

Claims (32)

1 - 24 . (canceled)

25 . A device, comprising:

at least one memory that stores computer-executable instructions; and

at least one processor of the one or more processors configured to access the at least one memory, wherein the at least one processor of the one or more processors is configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to:

identify one or more high efficiency long training (HE-LTF) fields received from at least one of one or more first devices;

determine one or more bits associated with the one or more HE-LTF fields; and

determine an uplink Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) request based at least in part on the one or more bits.

26 . The device of claim 25 , wherein the one or more HE-LTF fields include at least in part one or more HE-LTF symbols.

27 . The device of claim 25 , wherein the one or more HE-LTF fields are sent consecutively in at least one of a time domain or a frequency domain.

28 . The device of claim 25 , wherein the one or more bits include a first bit associated with a first HE-LTF field and a second bit associated with a second HE-LTF field.

29 . The device of claim 28 , wherein the first HE-LTF field is associated with a first group of devices and the second HE-LTF field is associated with a second group of user devices.

30 . The device of claim 28 , wherein the first HE-LTF field is associated with a first RBID and the second HE-LTF field is associated with a second RBID.

31 . The device of claim 28 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to cause to send to one or more user devices, a first trigger frame comprising one or more resource blocks.

32 . The device of claim 28 , wherein the first bit is associated with a first resource unit, a spatial stream, and an RBID associated with the at least one of the one or more first devices.

33 . The device of claim 25 , further comprising a transceiver configured to transmit and receive wireless signals.

34 . The device of claim 33 , further comprising one or more antennas coupled to the transceiver.

35 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

determine one or more high efficiency long training (HE-LTF) fields;

determine one or more bits encoded using the one or more HE-LTF fields based at least in part on a number of the one or more HE-LTF fields; and

causing to send an uplink Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) resource request using the one or more bits.

36 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 35 , wherein the one or more HE-LTF fields are sent consecutively.

37 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 35 , wherein the one or more bits include a first bit associated with a first HE-LTF field and a second bit associated with a second HE-LTF field.

38 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 37 , wherein the first HE-LTF field is associated with a first RBID and the second HE-LTF field is associated with a second RBID.

39 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 37 , wherein the first bit is associated with a first resource unit, a spatial stream, and an RBID.

40 . A method comprising:

identifying one or more high efficiency long training (HE-LTF) fields received from at least one of one or more first devices;

determining one or more bits associated with the one or more HE-LTF fields; and

determining an uplink Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) request based at least in part on the one or more bits.

41 . The method of claim 40 , wherein the one or more HE-LTF fields include at least in part one or more HE-LTF symbols.

42 . The method of claim 40 , wherein the one or more bits include a first bit associated with a first HE-LTF field and a second bit associated with a second HE-LTF field.

43 . The method of claim 42 , wherein the first HE-LTF field is associated with a first group of devices and the second HE-LTF field is associated with a second group of user devices.

44 . The method of claim 42 , wherein the first HE-LTF field is associated with a first RBID and the second HE-LTF field is associated with a second RBID.
