Group identification indication signaling
This disclosure describes methods, apparatuses, and wireless stations related to waking up low power radios. In particular, a wireless station is disclosed that may identify a first management frame from a first wireless station a first management frame from a first wireless station. The wireless station may cause to allocate one or more group identifications (IDs) to the first wireless station. The wireless station may cause to generate a bitmap corresponding to the allocation of the one or more group IDs to the first wireless station. The wireless station may cause to send a second management frame to the first wireless station of one or more wireless stations, wherein the second management frame comprises the bitmap.
1. A device, the device comprising processing circuitry coupled to storage, the processing circuitry configured to:
generate a wake up receiver (WUR) capabilities field that comprises one or more subfields;
indicate in the WUR capabilities field a maximum number and a minimum number of group identifications (IDs) that are supported, wherein the minimum number is non-zero;
cause to send a first frame comprising the WUR capabilities field; and
identify a second frame from a WUR AP comprising a bitmap corresponding to one or more group IDs to be allocated to the device based on the WUR capabilities field.
2. The device of claim 1 , wherein a size of the bitmap corresponds to a number of bits in the bitmap.
3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to send a wake-up frame with an allocation of at least one group ID to a wake-up receiver of the device.
4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the WUR capabilities field comprises a group IDs support subfield.
5. The device of claim 4 , wherein the group IDs support subfield is set to one to indicate that the maximum number is 16.
6. The device of claim 4 , wherein the group IDs support subfield is set to two to indicate that the maximum number is 32.
7. The device of claim 4 , wherein the group IDs support subfield is set to three to indicate that the maximum number is 64.
8. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a transceiver configured to transmit and receive wireless signals.
9. The device of claim 4 , further comprising an antenna coupled to the transceiver to cause to send the first frame.
10. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions which when executed by one or more processors result in performing operations comprising:
generating a wake up receiver (WUR) capabilities field that comprises one or more subfields;
indicating in the WUR capabilities field a maximum number and a minimum number of group identifications (IDs) that are supported, wherein the minimum number is non-zero;
causing to send a first frame comprising the WUR capabilities field; and
identifying a second frame from a WUR AP comprising a bitmap corresponding to one or more group IDs to be allocated to the device based on the WUR capabilities field.
11. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein a size of the bitmap corresponds to a number of bits in the bitmap.
12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the operations further comprise send a wake-up frame with an allocation of at least one group ID to a wake-up receiver of the device.
13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the WUR capabilities field comprises a group IDs support subfield.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the group IDs support subfield is set to one to indicate that the maximum number is 16.
15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the group IDs support subfield is set to two to indicate that the maximum number is 32.
16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the group IDs support subfield is set to three to indicate that the maximum number is 64.
17. A method comprising:
generating a wake up receiver (WUR) capabilities field that comprises one or more subfields;
indicate in the WUR capabilities field a maximum number and a minimum number of group identifications (IDs) that are supported, wherein the minimum number is non-zero;
causing to send a first frame comprising the WUR capabilities field; and
identifying a second frame from a WUR AP comprising a bitmap corresponding to one or more group IDs to be allocated to the device based on the WUR capabilities field.
18. The method of claim 17 , wherein a size of the bitmap corresponds to a number of bits in the bitmap.
19. The method of claim 17 , further comprising send a wake-up frame with an allocation of at least one group ID to a wake-up receiver of the device.
20. The method of claim 17 , wherein the WUR capabilities field comprises a group IDs support subfield.
