In this paper, we present Beamforming (BF) Training (BFT) for asymmetric links in IEEE 802.11ay. IEEE 802.11ay introduced BFT for asymmetric links that aims to increase the BFT success probability for Station (STA) with insufficient link budget to communicate with an Access Point (AP). BFT for asymmetric links utilizes directional BFT allocation to avoid the usage of quasi-omni pattern at the AP side, and thus to increase STA's BFT success rate. However, there are no publicly available simulation tools supporting IEEE 802.11ay. For these reasons, we present in this paper an implementation of BFT for asymmetric links in ns-3 with its novel techniques such as Training RX (TRN-R) subfield and BFT allocation. We then evaluate by simulation the performance of BFT for asymmetric links.

Looking at the direction of the recent amendments of 802.11 family, there are two major trends. One is to enable the wireless transceivers to support the extremely high-speed wireless transmissions, which has been the mainstream so far. Another big trend is providing a high-performance wireless application platform that meets the demands of the market. This paper summarizes the brand-new IEEE 802.11 amendments from 11ax to 11bf under development by analyzing the innovative features and use cases on them. We provide the vision and direction for the research on the revolutionary data-hungry Wi-Fi 6 and the IEEE 802.11be, alias Wi-Fi 7.

Wireless communication, including mobile networks and local area networks, has become an essential service in the society. Wireless communication is evolving to include sensing services, as demonstrated by the increasing attention in organizations and standards such as 3GPP and IEEE 802.11. This survey presents technology trends in the integration of sensing and communication. The standardization status along with use cases provided by standards are explained. In addition, core and supporting technologies such as channel modeling, waveform design, and artificial intelligence are analyzed.
