Method and device for avoiding false alarms of channel state information due to activation of closed loop power control function
A method for avoiding false alarms of Channel State Information (CSI) due to the activation of a Closed Loop Power Control (CLPC) function is provided. The method is executed by a transmitting device and includes: determining whether the CLPC function of the transmitting device is enabled; adding at least one CLPC tag to a physical layer convergence procedure (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) when the CLPC function is enabled; and transmitting the PPDU.
1. A method for avoiding false alarms of Channel State Information (CSI) due to activation of Closed Loop Power Control (CLPC) function, wherein the method is performed by a transmitting device and comprises:
determining whether the CLPC function of the transmitting device is enabled;
adding at least one CLPC tag to a physical layer convergence procedure (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) when the CLPC function is enabled; and
transmitting the PPDU to a receiving device to prevent the receiving device from causing false alarms of CSI due to activation of the CLPC function.
2. The method for avoiding false alarms of Channel State Information (CSI) due to the activation of a Closed Loop Power Control (CLPC) function as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the CLPC tag is added to at least one of the following fields in the PPDU:
a long training field (LTF) in a high throughput (HT)/very high throughput (VHT)/high-efficiency (HE) preamble;
a service field in a data field; and
a physical service data unit (PSDU) in the data field.
3. The method for avoiding false alarms of Channel State Information (CSI) due to the activation of a Closed Loop Power Control (CLPC) function as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the PPDU has one of the following formats:
an HT/VHT/HE single user (SU) PPDU format;
an HT/VHT/HE extended range SU PPDU format;
an HT/VHT/HE trigger based (TB) PPDU format; and
an HT/VHT/HE multiplex user (MU) PPDU format.
4. The method for avoiding false alarms of Channel State Information (CSI) due to the activation of a Closed Loop Power Control (CLPC) function as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the transmitting device supports IEEE 802.11n/ac/ax.
5. The method for avoiding false alarms of Channel State Information (CSI) due to the activation of a Closed Loop Power Control (CLPC) function as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises:
not adding the CLPC tag to the PPDU when the CLPC function is not enabled.
6. A device for avoiding false alarms of Channel State Information (CSI) due to the activation of a Closed Loop Power Control (CLPC) function comprises:
one or more processors; and
one or more computer storage media for storing one or more computer-readable instructions, wherein the processor is configured to drive the computer storage media to execute the following tasks:
determining whether the CLPC function of the device is enabled;
adding at least one CLPC tag to a physical layer convergence procedure (PLCP) protocol data unit (PPDU) when the CLPC function is enabled; and
transmitting the PPDU to a receiving device to prevent the receiving device from causing false alarms of CSI due to activation of the CLPC function.
7. The device for avoiding false alarms of Channel State Information (CSI) due to the activation of a Closed Loop Power Control (CLPC) function as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the CLPC tag is added to at least one of the following fields in the PPDU:
