发明名称 Techniques for flexible and efficient beamforming
摘要 Training data for a first training session is generated to include a first data unit, the first data unit having a field that specifies a first number of beamforming training data units that can be communicated during a second training session to occur after the first training session. The training data including the first data unit is transmitted to a second device during the first training session. A second data unit received from the second device is processed to determine whether a request for the second device to participate in the second training session was accepted by the second device based on a first field of the second data unit. In response to determining that the request to participate in the second training session was accepted by the second device, the first number of beamforming training data units are transmitted during the second training session.

主权项 1. A method comprising: generating, at a first device, training data for a first training session between the first device and a second device, the training data including a first data unit to be transmitted during the first training session, wherein generating the first data unit includes generating a field of the first data unit that specifies a first number of beamforming training data units that can be communicated during a second training session to occur after the first training session, wherein the field of the first data unit that specifies the first number of beamforming training data units corresponds to a request for the second device to participate in the second training session; causing the training data including the first data unit to be transmitted from the first device to the second device during the first training session; processing, at the first device, a second data unit received by the first device, wherein the second data unit includes a response, by the second device, to the request, in the first data unit, for the second device to participate in the second training session, wherein processing the second data unit includes determining whether the request for the second device to participate in the second training session was accepted by the second device based on a first field of the second data unit, wherein the first field of the second data unit is a single bit, wherein a first value of the first field indicates that the request for the second training session is accepted by the second device, and wherein a second value of the first field indicates that the request for the second training session is rejected by the second device; and in response to determining that the request to participate in the second training session was accepted by the second device, causing the first number of beamforming training data units to be transmitted by the first device during the second training session.
