Abstract:
Various aspects of the disclosure relate to distributed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication such as coordinated beamforming or Joint MIMO. In some aspects, distributed MIMO is used to support communication in a cluster of wireless nodes (e.g., access points). A distributed MIMO scheduling scheme as taught herein is used to schedule sounding operations by the wireless nodes (e.g., access points and/or stations) operating within the cluster.

Claim (Index 2):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the identification of the plurality of second wireless nodes comprises identifying wireless nodes that are to measure each individual null data packet (NDP) sent by at least one of the plurality of first wireless nodes.
