Detection and resolution of a reduced version basic service set identifier collision
Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication. A wireless node may detect and resolve collisions in reduced version of basic service set identifiers (BSSIDs). The collisions may be the result of multiple basic service sets (BSSs) using the same values for reduced versions of BSSIDs. For example, the BSSs may use the same value for X-bit color indicators which results in a color collision if the BSSs are neighbor BSSs. When such a scenario occurs, the node may detect the collision by referencing reduced version BSSID information from broadcasts or backhaul communications with one of the involved BSSs. Alternatively, the node may determine that frames from two different BSSs include the same color bits. The node may resolve the detected color collision by triggering a change in the reduced version BSSID for one of the involved BSSs.
