Abstract
Example systems, methods, and devices for reusing one or more architectural building blocks of IEEE 802.11 n/ac/ah network, and allocating one or more Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) tones such that the one or more OFDMA allocations have fixed locations which do not straddle DC are disclosed.
Claims26
A device to allocate one or more communication subchannels in a multi-user operation, the device comprising:
- one or more processors including circuitry, the circuitry having logic to:
- reuse one or more architectural building blocks configured to allow operation of the device in a legacy wireless network;
- and
- allocate one or more orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) tones such that the one or more OFDMA tone allocations have fixed locations that do not straddle direct current.
A method to allocate one or more communication subchannels in a multi-user operation, the method comprising:
- reusing, by a first computing device comprising one or more processors and one or more transceiver components, one or more architectural building blocks configured to allow operation of the first computing device in a legacy wireless network;
- and
- allocating one or more orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) tones such that the one or more OFDMA tone allocations have fixed locations that do not straddle direct current.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- reusing one or more architectural building blocks configured to allow operation of the processor in a legacy wireless network;
- and
- allocating one or more orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) tones such that the one or more OFDMA tone allocations have fixed locations that do not straddle direct current.
