Abstract:
This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for the scheduling of wireless resources to multiple wireless stations participating in a simultaneous transmission. Some implementations more specifically relate to the allocation of resource units (RUs) to stations for an uplink multi-user OFDMA (UL MU-OFDMA) transmission. In some implementations, an access point (AP) may adjust a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of one of the stations based on the results of a power imbalance check. For example, in response to determining that a station failed the power imbalance check, the AP may reduce the MCS assigned to the station from a current value to a reduced value as opposed to simply dropping the station from the scheduled transmission. In some implementations, the AP then performs another power imbalance check based on the reduced MCS. The process may be repeated in an effort to provide all of the grouped stations the opportunity to successfully participate in the UL MU-OFDMA transmission.

Claim (Index 5):
The method of  claim 4 , further including, responsive to removing the first wireless device, increasing a size of an RU allocated to a selected second wireless device of the wireless devices participating in the UL MU-OFDMA transmission using tones from the RU previously allocated to the first wireless device.
