Abstract
Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, devices, systems and methods of dynamically scheduling a transmit opportunity. For example, a first wireless station may be configured to generate a grant frame including a duration field and a dynamic allocation information field, the dynamic allocation information field including an allocation duration subfield, the allocation duration subfield being set to a value within a predefined range of values, when the grant frame is to grant to a second wireless station a period after a Transmit Opportunity (TxOP), the allocation duration subfield being set to a predefined value which is not within the predefined range of values, when the grant frame is to grant to the second wireless station a period within the TxOP; and transmit the grant frame during the TxOP.

2. An apparatus comprising logic and circuitry configured to cause a first wireless communication station (STA) to:
-
set a value of an allocation duration field to indicate whether a grant frame is for a first purpose or for a second purpose, the first purpose to be indicated by the value of the allocation duration field set in a range from 0 to 32767, the second purpose to be indicated by the value of the allocation duration field set to 32768; and transmit the grant frame to a second STA, the grant frame comprising a duration field and a dynamic allocation information (Info) field, the dynamic allocation Info field comprising the allocation duration field. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A product comprising one or more tangible computer-readable non-transitory storage media comprising computer-executable instructions operable to, when executed by at least one processor, enable the at least one processor to cause a first wireless communication station (STA) to:
-
set a value of an allocation duration field to indicate whether a grant frame is for a first purpose or for a second purpose, the first purpose to be indicated by the value of the allocation duration field set in a range from 0 to 32767, the second purpose to be indicated by the value of the allocation duration field set to 32768; and transmit the grant frame to a second STA, the grant frame comprising a duration field and a dynamic allocation information (Info) field, the dynamic allocation Info field comprising the allocation duration field. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)

29. An apparatus comprising:
-
means for setting at a first wireless communication station (STA) a value of an allocation duration field to indicate whether a grant frame is for a first purpose or for a second purpose, the first purpose to be indicated by the value of the allocation duration field set in a range from 0 to 32767, the second purpose to be indicated by the value of the allocation duration field set to 32768; and means for causing the first STA to transmit the grant frame to a second STA, the grant frame comprising a duration field and a dynamic allocation information (Info) field, the dynamic allocation Info field comprising the allocation duration field. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31)
