Abstract

Some demonstrative embodiments include devices, systems and/or methods of wireless communication over non-contiguous channels. For example, a device may include a wireless communication unit capable of transmitting symbols of a wireless communication packet to a wireless communication device over a plurality of non-contiguous wireless communication channels.

Claims (26)

1. An apparatus comprising a memory and a processor configured to cause a wireless communication station to:

transmit a preamble of a packet over a first channel, the preamble comprising channel information corresponding to the first channel and to a second channel, the channel information comprising at least channel bandwidth information corresponding to a bandwidth of the first and second channels;

transmit the preamble comprising the channel information corresponding to the first channel and the second channel over the second channel; and

transmit a data portion of the packet over a channel bandwidth comprising the first and second channels according to the channel information in the preamble.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the channel information comprises channel allocation information to define an allocation of the first and second channels.

3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the preamble comprises an aggregation indicator to indicate aggregation or no aggregation.

4. The apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the aggregation indicator comprises a bit having a value of zero or a value of one, the value of zero to indicate no-aggregation, the value of one to indicate aggregation.

5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the preamble comprises Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) information.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the preamble comprises size information of a size of the data portion.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the preamble comprises an indication of a primary channel.

8. The apparatus of claim 1 configured to cause the wireless communication station to transmit one or more training fields of the preamble over the first and second channels.

9. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first and second channels have a same bandwidth.

10. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first channel comprises a first plurality of contiguous channels, and the second channel comprises a second plurality of contiguous channels.

11. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first and second channels are non-contiguous channels.

12. The apparatus of claim 1 comprising a Medium Access Control (MAC).

13. The apparatus of claim 1 comprising a plurality of transmit (Tx) chains.

14. The apparatus of claim 1 comprising a radio.

15. The apparatus of claim 1 comprising one or more antennas.

16. A product comprising one or more tangible computer-readable non-transitory storage media comprising computer-executable instructions operable to, when executed by at least one processor, enable the at least one processor to cause a wireless communication station to:

transmit a preamble of a packet over a first channel, the preamble comprising channel information corresponding to the first channel and to a second channel, the channel information comprising at least channel bandwidth information corresponding to a bandwidth of the first and second channels;

transmit the preamble comprising the channel information corresponding to the first channel and the second channel over the second channel; and

transmit a data portion of the packet over a channel bandwidth comprising the first and second channels according to the channel information in the preamble.

17. The product of claim 16 , wherein the channel information comprises channel allocation information to define an allocation of the first and second channels.

18. The product of claim 16 , wherein the preamble comprises Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) information.

19. The product of claim 16 , wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the wireless communication station to transmit one or more training fields of the preamble over the first and second channels.

20. The product of claim 16 , wherein the first and second channels are non-contiguous channels.
