1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
monitoring a region within a wireless medium to sense a level of interference within the region, wherein the monitoring is performed using at least one directional beam covering the region;
upon determining that the level of interference sensed within the region satisfies a threshold condition, transmitting to a plurality of wireless devices in the region using a plurality of spatially separated directional beams, wherein a direction of the at least one directional beam covering the region is based on a combination of directional components associated with each of the plurality of spatially separated directional beams; and
obtaining information for which the plurality of wireless devices are intended recipients, wherein the monitoring the region is performed in response to a determination that the plurality of wireless devices are within the region.
