Abstract:
Consideration of contention windows with spatial listen before talk (LBT) operations is discussed. In multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) transmission operations over a shared transmission medium, use of spatial LBT transmissions may be implemented with fairness options and parameters influenced by a condition of the MIMO transmitter, such conditions as the level of MIMO capability or the enablement of polite spatial LBT nulling transmissions. When a MIMO transmitter identifies data for transmission, it may determine a configuration of the medium access contention operation, synchronous or asynchronous content, based on the condition of the MIMO transmitter. The MIMO transmitter may then transmit the data either using spatial LBT transmission or not according to the configuration of the medium access contention operation.

Claim (Index 10):
The method of  claim 9 ,\n wherein the determining the configuration includes:\n detecting the MIMO transmitter is configured for the enabled transmission nulling; and \n setting the medium access priority according to the enabled transmission nulling, wherein the medium access priority corresponding to the enabled transmission nulling is shorter when the MIMO transmitter performs the spatial LBT transmission than the medium access priority corresponding to a disabled transmission nulling; and \n accessing the transmission medium according to the medium access priority assignment; and \n wherein the transmitting includes:\n transmitting the data to a receiver of the data, and \n transmitting a nulling signal to a neighboring receiver, wherein the nulling signal is formed to reduce interference at the neighboring receiver caused by the transmitting the data.
