Abstract

Methods and apparatuses for performing wake-up radio (WUR) are described herein. A receiving device may comprise a receiver configured to receive a first preamble using a first frequency range. The receiver may be configured to receive, using the first frequency range, a WUR packet after the first preamble, wherein a bandwidth associated with the first WUR packet is smaller than a bandwidth associated with the first preamble. The receiving device may be further configured to receive a second preamble and a second WUR packet, wherein the first preamble is frequency division multiplexed with the second preamble and the first WUR packet is frequency division multiplexed with the second WUR packet, and wherein a bandwidth associated with the second WUR packet is smaller than a bandwidth associated with the second preamble. The first WUR packet and the second WUR packet may have an equal duration of transmission.

Claims (18)

1. A receiving device comprising:

a receiver configured to receive a first preamble using a first frequency range; and

the receiver configured to receive, using the first frequency range, a first wake-up radio (WUR) packet after the first preamble, wherein a bandwidth associated with the first WUR packet is smaller than a bandwidth associated with the first preamble.

2. The receiving device of claim 1 , further configured to receive a second preamble and a second WUR packet, wherein the first preamble is frequency division multiplexed with the second preamble and the first WUR packet is frequency division multiplexed with the second WUR packet, and wherein a bandwidth associated with the second WUR packet is smaller than a bandwidth associated with the second preamble.

3. The receiving device of claim 2 , wherein the first WUR packet and the second WUR packet have an equal duration of transmission.

4. The receiving device of claim 1 , wherein the second preamble and the second WUR packet are received using a second frequency range.

5. The receiving device of claim 1 , wherein the first preamble protects WUR packets from interference caused by other devices.

6. The receiving device of claim 1 , wherein the first WUR packet comprises an 802.11ba preamble and WUR information.

7. The receiving device of claim 1 , wherein a WUR signal associated with the first WUR packet is generated via a sequence, wherein the sequence is mapped to a set of subcarriers associated with an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) symbol.

8. A method performed by a receiving device, the method comprising:

receiving a first preamble using a first frequency range; and

receiving, using the first frequency range, a first wake-up radio (WUR) packet after the first preamble, wherein a bandwidth associated with the first WUR packet is smaller than a bandwidth associated with the first preamble.

9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising receiving a second preamble and a second WUR packet, wherein the first preamble is frequency division multiplexed with the second preamble and the first WUR packet is frequency division multiplexed with the second WUR packet, and wherein a bandwidth associated with the second WUR packet is smaller than a bandwidth associated with the second preamble.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the first WUR packet and the second WUR packet have an equal duration of transmission.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the second preamble and the second WUR packet are received using a second frequency range.

12. The method of claim 8 , wherein the first preamble protects WUR packets from interference caused by other devices.

13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the first WUR packet comprises an 802.11ba preamble and WUR information.

14. The method of claim 8 , wherein a WUR signal associated with the first WUR packet is generated via a sequence, wherein the sequence is mapped to a set of subcarriers associated with an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) symbol.
