Abstract:
Antenna diversity for beacons. An access point device may include multiple antenna arrays. A series of beacons may be transmitted using each of the antenna arrays in sequence. The beacons may include configuration information usable by wireless devices to determine when to respond to the beacons. The access point may receive responses during a series of response periods, using each of the antenna arrays.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus for operating a wireless station, the apparatus comprising:\n one or more processing elements, wherein the one or more processing elements are configured to cause the wireless station to:\n receive at least one beacon from an access point, wherein each respective beacon of the at least one beacon indicates a duration of a beacon sweep period and a respective antenna array used by the access point to transmit the respective beacon, wherein each respective antenna array is one of a plurality of antenna arrays of the access point; \n determine an identity of a particular antenna array used by the access point to transmit at least one of the at least one beacon; \n determine a response period, wherein said determining the response period is based at least in part on the duration of the beacon sweep period and the identity of the particular antenna array; and \n transmit a response to the access point, wherein the response is transmitted during the response period.
