Indication of WUR Packets in IEEE 802.11-17/0387r2 Document
Discussing the importance of Wake Up Packet (WUP) purpose indication in WUR scenarios within the IEEE 802.11-17/0387r2 document. Various wake up scenarios, such as synchronization, beacon reception, and data transmission, are explored in detail based on the transmitted WUP content. Different behaviors of Access Points (APs) and Stations (STAs) are highlighted depending on the purpose of the WUP, aiming to improve overall network efficiency.

March 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/0387r2 Abstract In this contribution, we discuss the need and benefits for WUR packets to indicate their purposes. Submission Slide 2 Xiaofei Wang (InterDigital)
March 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/0387r2 Introduction Many different wake up scenarios have been discussed in WUR SG and TGba using a Wake Up Packet (WUP) E.g., an AP may use a WUP to wake up one or more STAs for the following purposes: Synchronization [1][3] Request STAs to listen to beacon [2] Data transmission: DL/UL [1][3] and/or SU/MU [1][2] E.g., a STA may use a WUP to wake up an AP for the following purposes: Discovery and association [4] UL Data Transmission [5] STA behaviors and WUP contents are expected to be different in many of the scenarios described above depending on the purpose of the transmitted WUP.

March 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/0387r2 Wake up scenario analysis (1) Scenario 1: An AP sends a WUP to one or more STAs for synchronization: Example WUP content: TSF timer Example receiving STA behavior: synchronize, no need to turn on Primary Connectivity Radio (PCR) Scenario 2: An AP sends a WUP to STAs to request the STAs to receive the beacon: Example WUP content: beacon TBTT, maybe reason Example receiving STA behavior: turn on PCR and receive beacon Scenario 3: An AP sends a WUP to one or more STAs for SU/MU DL/UL data transmission: Example WUP content: DL/UL indication, TOMI/ROMI, SU/MU indications, resource allocation for STAs Submission Slide 4 Xiaofei Wang (InterDigital)
March 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/0387r2 Wake up scenario analysis (2) Scenario 3: An AP sends a WUP to one or more STAs for SU DL/UL data transmission: Example receiving STA behavior: Inform AP of waking up/Turn on PCR Adjust TOMI/ROMI Tx/Rx accordingly Scenario 4: A STA may send a WUP to an AP for discovery and association: Example WUP content: SSID/BSSID requested, Service Requested Example receiving AP behavior: send beacon/broadcast probe response to facilitate discovery/association Submission Slide 5 Xiaofei Wang (InterDigital)
March 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/0387r2 Wake up scenario analysis (3) Scenario 5: A STA may send a WUP to an AP for UL data transmission: Example WUP content: DL/UL request indication, TOMI/ROMI indication, BU size indication Example receiving AP behavior: Inform STA of waking up/Turn on PCR Adjust TOMI/ROMI Rx accordingly Submission Slide 6 Xiaofei Wang (InterDigital)
March 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/0387r2 WUP Purpose Indication If the purpose of a WUP is indicated in the WUP: It will help receiving STAs to optimize operations following the receptions of the WUP It can provide indication of the content of the WUP as well Can WUP purpose be indicated using other fields, e.g., the Type field? The content of a packet is typically indicated by the Type field Purposes such as synchronization, request STAs to receive beacons, wake up STAs for UL/DL SU/MU packets are typically not covered by the Type field Can the purpose of wake up be indicated through the PCR Some of the purposes such as UL/DL, SU/MU data transmission may be indicated using PCR; Likely requires additional overhead (packet exchanges) Synchronization may not require STAs to turn on their PCRs Slide 7 Submission Xiaofei Wang (InterDigital)
March 2017 doc.: IEEE 802.11-17/0387r2 Summary STA behaviors and WUP contents are expected to be very different in many wake up scenarios depending on the purpose of the transmitted WUP. Allowing the WUP to indicate the wake up purpose may better prepare receiving STAs for optimized operations Some of the WUP purposes may include: Synchronization Request STAs to receive beacon UL/DL SU/MU data transmissions AP discovery and association Submission Slide 8 Xiaofei Wang (InterDigital)
