Original Abstract Submitted

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide a method for wireless communications at a first wireless device. The method generally includes generating a protected frame that indicates: 1) an updated starting sequence number (SSN) of a block acknowledgment (BA) window and 2) an intended purpose of the protected frame as a request to update a BA window with the updated SSN; outputting, for transmission to a second wireless device that the first wireless device has established a protected block acknowledgment (BA) agreement with, the protected frame; generating multiple medium access control (MAC) Protocol Data Units (MPDUs) with SNs within the updated BA window; and outputting, for transmission to the second wireless device, the multiple MPDUs.
