SIMULTANEOUS RECEPTION SWEEP AND TRANSMISSION IN A FULL-DUPLEX NODE
First Claim
1. A method for wireless communication at a first wireless node, comprising:
- selecting a plurality of reception directions for a sweeping receive pattern based at least in part on prior signaling transmitted by one or more additional wireless nodes;
transmitting a first message to a second wireless node; and
listening, while concurrently transmitting the first message and in accordance with the sweeping receive pattern, for one or more signals from the one or more additional wireless nodes in a corresponding direction.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A wireless node may transmit directional signals in a sweeping transmission pattern while receiving communications from a second wireless node. Another wireless node may then, during a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure, receive one of the directional signals, and terminate a correspondence communication session to avoid potential interference. Additionally or alternatively, a wireless node may listen in directions in a sweeping receive pattern while transmitting to a second wireless node. While listening, the wireless node may detect a transmission from a third wireless node in a particular direction. The wireless node may then accordingly refrain from transmitting in that direction to avoid potential interference.
