Patent ID: 10397024

Abstract:
Computing readable media, apparatuses, and methods for signaling for uplink sounding are disclosed. An apparatus is disclosed comprising processing circuitry. The processing circuitry may be configured to: decode a trigger frame comprising a resource unit (RU) allocation, and a spatial stream (SS) allocation for the first wireless device to transmit an uplink (UL) sounding signal, where the trigger frame include an indication that the trigger frame is for the UL sounding signal. The processing circuitry may be further configured to: determine a path loss based on the indication of the transmit power and a received power of the trigger frame at the first wireless device. The processing circuitry may be configured to: determine a transmit power for the UL sounding signal based on the path loss, and transmit the UL sounding signal in accordance with the RU allocation, the SS allocation, and the transmit power.
