Abstract

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for handling coordinated beamforming in wireless communications systems. An example method performed by a first access point (AP) generally includes outputting, for transmission to a second AP, at least one of a first indication that the first AP supports spatial reuse of transmission resources or a second indication that the first AP supports asymmetric coordinated beamforming (CBF); and outputting, for transmission, signaling to one or more stations (STAs) supported by the first AP without intent to form nulls directed toward other STAs supported by the second AP.
