UNIVERSAL AUTOMATIC FREQUENCY CONTROL FOR MULTI-CHANNEL RECEIVERS
Systems and methods for performing automatic frequency control are provided. Instead of relying on individual frequency tuners for each channel of a multi-channel receiver system, the present subject matter uses a single frequency tuner for receiving each channel of the multi-channel receiver system. A locked demodulator may be designated as a reference demodulator and frequency offset values associated with the reference demodulator may be applied to other demodulators of the multi-channel receiver. These frequency offset values may be used by individual demodulators of each channel for correcting corresponding frequency offsets.

Methods and apparatus supporting controlled transmission and reception of messages
Methods and apparatus that support controlled transmission and directional reception of RTS and/or CTS messages, are described. Controlled transmission may include transmitting a same RTS message multiple times in the same direction and/or transmitting an RTS message with a length that is multiple times longer than a standard RTS message. In an aspect, a receiver may determine spatial directions of a plurality of transmitters including a first transmitter and at least one other transmitter, and may perform a beam sweep in the determined spatial directions for receiving one or more RTS messages. A transmitter may determine that a receiver is to perform a beam sweep in K different spatial directions, and may transmit a same RTS message for a data transmission K times in the same direction or an RTS message with a length approximately K times longer than a standard RTS message, during a duration of the beam sweep.
