1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- generating a control frame comprising a contention free end (CF-end) frame, the CF-end frame comprising a physical layer preamble having a type field, the type field including an indicator indicating the CF-end frame is a null data packet (NDP); and
transmitting the control frame.

Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices for communicating short control frames are described herein. In some aspects, a method of wireless communication includes generating a control frame comprising a contention free end (CF-end) frame, the CF-end frame comprising a physical layer preamble having a type field, the type field including an indicator indicating the CF-end frame is a null data packet (NDP). The method further includes transmitting the control frame.

9. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
-
generating a control frame comprising a null data packet acknowledgement (NDP ACK) frame or NDP modified ACK frame, the NDP ACK frame or NDP modified ACK frame comprising a duration indication field, wherein the duration indication field provides signaling information for the NDP ACK or the NDP modified ACK; and transmitting the control frame. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
