Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication. An example wireless communication device may receive at least a portion of a data frame from another wireless communication device via a first or primary channel. The example wireless communication device may transmit a first acknowledgement message via a second or alternate channel, different from the first or primary channel, in response to the received data frame. In another example, an example wireless communication device may transmit a data frame via a first or primary channel. The wireless communication device may receive an acknowledgement message via a second or alternate channel, different from the first or primary channel in response to the data frame from another wireless communication device.
