Abstract:
Apparatuses, computer readable media, and methods for uplink and downlink sounding for wireless networks are disclosed. An apparatus of a wireless device is disclosed. The apparatus comprising processing circuity configured to: encode a trigger frame for sounding (TF-S), the TF-S comprising an indication of whether a sounding is for uplink (UL) sounding or (DL) sounding, and the TF-S comprising an indication of stations to participate in the UL sounding or the DL sounding; and configure the wireless device to transmit the TF-S to the stations. The processing circuitry may be further configured to: if the sounding is for the DL sounding, encode a null data packet announcement (NDP-A), encode a null data packet (NDP), configure the wireless device to transmit the NDP-A, and configure the wireless device to transmit the NDP.

Claim (Index 24):
The apparatus of  claim 23 , the processing circuitry further configured to:\n if the sounding is the SU sounding and the sounding is for UL sounding, encode the NDP-A to further comprise a resource allocation for one station of the one or more stations to transmit one or more null data packets (NDPs) to the wireless device, and decode the one or more NDPs from the one station, wherein the one or more NDPs are to be received in accordance with the resource allocation.
