IMPROVING WI-FI SPECTRUM EFFICIENCY

Abstract:

A device of a User Equipment (UE), a method to operate the device, and a machine readable medium. The device includes processing circuitry and a radio frequency (RF) interface coupled to the processing circuitry, the processing circuitry to: decode a signal sent in a cellular network from a base station (BS), the signal including a network allocation vector (NAV) information update regarding a NAV corresponding to a Wi-Fi network, the NAV to be set by a Wi-Fi station (STA) that is in the Wi-Fi network, and that is to be coupled to the UE via a connection; and send the NAV information update to the STA by way of the connection to allow the STA to set its NAV in the Wi-Fi network based on the NAV information update.
