Abstract: A method for performing mode switching management in multi-link operation (MLO) architecture and associated apparatus are provided. The method applicable to a wireless transceiver device communicating with another device within a wireless communications system may include: executing a mode switching procedure regarding a predetermined MLO-related mode in a first protection period dedicated to the mode switching procedure, so that no other transmission request is received during the first protection period, where the first protection period is equal to or longer than the time spent on executing the mode switching. The mode switching procedure may include sending a protection indication in a first communications frame from the wireless transceiver device to the other device that informs the other device not to send any transmission request, or the wireless transceiver device may perform information exchange in advance to notify the other device of mode switch processing delay as the first protection period.

Abstract: A method for performing wireless communication in MLO architecture is applicable to an AP MLD connected with a non-AP MLD through multiple links. The multiple links include at least a first link and a second link, the non-AP MLD operates in ML-SMPS mode. The method includes transmitting an initial control frame to the non-AP MLD via the first link, to trigger at least one link of the multiple links to be activated at the non-AP MLD to support a reception with respective negotiated number of spatial streams, receiving a response frame via the first link in response to the transmission of the initial control frame, and initiating frame exchange between the AP MLD and the non-AP MLD via a target link of the at least one link. The target link is selected from the at least one link according to the response frame. The first link is a primary link.

Abstract: One wireless communication method includes: receiving a request action frame; and in response to the request action frame, generating and sending an acknowledgement (ACK) control frame that is configured to serve as a response action frame for the request action frame, wherein the response action frame is not solicited by the request action frame. Another wireless communication method includes: receiving a request action frame; and in response to the request action frame, generating and sending an acknowledgement (ACK) control frame and a time-constrained response action frame following the ACK control frame, wherein the time-constrained response action frame is solicited by the request action frame.
